Cruise control may be unable to maintain the
stored speed on uphill gradients. The stored
speed is resumed when the gradient evens out.
Change into a lower gear in good time on long and
steep downhill gradients. Take particular note of
this when driving a laden vehicle. By doing so, you
will make use of the engine's braking e ect. This
relieves the load on the brake system and pre-
vents the brakes from overheating and wearing
too quickly.
Do not use cruise control in the following situa-
tions:
In tra c situations that require frequent
R
changes of speed, e.g. in heavy tra c, on
winding roads
On slippery roads. Accelerating can cause the
R
driven wheels to lose traction and the vehicle
could then skid.
When visibility is poor
