Decelerating

Briefly press the – button:

Every time you press the button, road
speed drops by approx. 1 km/h
(0.6 mph) if you are already using the
cruise control.

Hold down the – button:

The car slows down by automatically
cutting the throttle if you are already
running on cruise control. As soon as
you release the button, the speed the
car has reached will be maintained and
memorised.

Interrupting cruise control

When activated, press the button: the
telltale light remains lit. You can restore
cruise control at any time by calling up
the last speed stored in memory.

In addition, you interrupt the cruise
control function automatically:
> When braking

> When operating the clutch or when

moving the automatic transmission
selector lever from D to N

> If the car exceeds or fails to reach the

speed setting for a lengthy period, for
example when you depress the
accelerator.

Calling up speed stored in
memory

Press the button:

The speed last memorised is recalled
and maintained once it has been
reached again.
