How to operate GRA?
Depending on the vehicle equipment, GRA can be
operated through the turn signal lever
page 109.
Displays
When GRA is switched on, the instrument cluster
display shows the stored speed and the status of
GRA:
Small font or gray: GRA is deactivated.
Large font or white: GRA is activated.
If no speed has been stored, the instrument clus-
ter display will show  instead of the speed.
Driving downhill
The vehicle speed may exceed the stored speed
during driving downhills.
To reduce the speed, the foot brake should be
applied and if necessary, shift to a lower gear.
WARNING
Never use GRA to maintain a constant speed if
traffic conditions do not allow for a safe fol-
lowing distance. This can lead to accidents and
serious injuries.
● For safety reasons, never use GRA in areas
with heavy traffic, multiple curves, inclines,
or slippery surfaces (such as snowy, wet, or
flooded roads), as well as on gravel or floo-
ded roads.
● Never use GRA when driving on unpaved
areas or dirt roads.
● Adapt your speed and distance from the ve-
hicles ahead to suit visibility, weather, road,
and traffic conditions.
● Switch off the GRA immediately after use to
avoid accidents caused by unintentional use.
● Set a reasonable cruise speed that is appro-
priate for the weather, road and traffic con-
ditions. Failing to do so could result in acci-
dents and serious or fatal injuries.
● When driving downhill, GRA may not be able
to maintain the set cruise speed, and the ve-
hicle may accelerate due to its own weight.
In this case, shift to a lower gear or apply the
foot brake immediately to reduce speed.
