Alarm for speed exceeded
On steep downhill gradients the engine brak-
ing effect may be inadequate and the
selected maximum speed exceeded. The
driver is alerted about this with an acoustic
signal.
The signal is active until the driver has slowed
to below the selected maximum speed.
NOTE
The alarm is only activated after 5 seconds
if the speed has been exceeded by at least
3 km/h provided that none of the buttons
or
has been depressed during the
last half minute.
Deactivate
To deactivate the speed limiter:
Press the steering wheel button
> The combined instrument panel's sym-
bol for the speed limiter (6) and the
mark for the set speed (5) are extin-
guished. The selected and stored
speed are thus deleted from the mem-
ory and cannot be resumed with the
button.
The driver can then use the accelerator
pedal to choose a speed without limi-
tation.
