Hill Start Assist; Speed Limiter - Ford TRANSIT Quick Reference Manualu

You take corners too fast.
The road surface is poor.

HILL START ASSIST

The system makes it easier to pull away
when your vehicle is on a slope without the
need to use the parking brake. When the
system is active, your vehicle will remain
stationary on the slope for two to three
seconds after you release the brake pedal.
This allows time to move your foot from
the brake to the accelerator pedal. The
system releases the brakes automatically
once the engine has developed sufficient
drive to prevent your vehicle from rolling
down the slope.
Using Hill Start Assist
1. Press the brake pedal to bring your
vehicle to a complete standstill. Keep
the brake pedal pressed.
2. If the sensors detect that your vehicle
is on a slope, the system will activate
automatically.
3. When you remove your foot from the
brake pedal, your vehicle will remain on
the slope without rolling away for
approximately two to three seconds.
This hold time will automatically be
extended if you are in the process of
driving off.
4. Drive off in the normal manner. The
system will release the brakes
automatically.
Note: When you remove your foot from the
brake pedal and press the pedal again when
the system is active, you will experience
significantly reduced brake pedal travel. This
is normal.

Vehicle Speed Limiter - Fixed
The system prevents you from driving faster
than a programmed speed. See the label
on the driver sun visor for further
information.
Vehicles with a Diesel Engine
You can have the maximum speed of your
vehicle limited to a predefined value,
providing it is within legal limits. See an
authorized dealer for further information.
Vehicles with Start-Stop
When start-stop is switched on your vehicle
speed is limited to 70 mph (110 km/h).
Note: If your vehicle has a fixed speed limit
lower than 70 mph (110 km/h), this will
override the switchable speed limiter
associated with start-stop.
The system automatically turns on every
time you switch the ignition on. To turn this
speed limit off, press the ECO switch. The
system will only turn off for the current
ignition cycle. To turn it on, press the switch
again. For item location: See Instrument
Panel Overview (page 1).
Vehicle Speed Limiter - Adjustable
The system allows you to set a speed, to
which your vehicle is then limited. The set
speed will become the effective maximum
speed of your vehicle, but with the option
to temporarily exceed this limit if required.
