CRUISE CONTROL
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Cruise Control is an electronic device to
assist driving, which makes it possible to
maintain the vehicle at the desired speed
without the need to press the accelerator.
The device must only be used in particu-
lar safety conditions, at a speed above 40
km/h (25 mph), on long stretches of
straight, dry road with little change in
speed (e.g. motorways). Therefore it is
not recommended to use this device on
extra-urban roads with traffic. Do not use
it in cities.
CONTROLS
1. MAIN button (ON: device enabled;
OFF: device disabled)
2. RES/ACC button (call up stored speed,
increase set speed)
3. SET/COAST button (store speed, de-
crease set speed)
4. CANCEL button (switch off device)
5. CRUISE warning light (device enabled)
6. SET warning light (device working)
ENABLING OF THE DEVICE
To enable the device and prepare it for
operation, press the “MAIN” button (1).
The “CRUISE” warning light on the in-
strument panel comes on to signal that the
device has been enabled. The warning light
remains on until the device is disabled.
NOTE
❒ In models with a manual gearbox, it is
recommended to use the device only at
high gears (4th, 5th of 6th).
❒ When travelling downhill with the de-
vice engaged, the vehicle speed may
slightly exceed the stored one.
STORAGE OF VEHICLE SPEED
In order to store a speed and activate
Cruise Control, follow these steps.
❒ Enable the device and press the
“MAIN” button (1).
❒ Press the accelerator, bringing the ve-
hicle up to the desired speed.
❒ Press the “SET/COAST” button (3): ve-
hicle speed is stored and so it is possi-
ble to release the accelerator.
NOTE If required (e.g. during overtaking),
it's possible to momentarily increase the
speed of the vehicle by pushing the accel-
erator. The vehicle will return to the pre-
viously set speed when the pedal is re-
leased.
RESETTING STORED SPEED
If the device is disengaged for one of the
following reasons:
❒ pressing the brake pedal;
❒ pressing the clutch (on vehicles with
manual gearbox);
❒ pressing the “CANCEL” button (4);
