Maintaining current speed
Briefly press, arrow 1, or briefly pull, arrow 2
lever.
The speed currently being driven is stored and
maintained. It is indicated on the speedometer
and briefly in the instrument cluster.
The controlled speed can drop on uphill grades
if the engine output is insufficient. If the engine
braking effect is not sufficient on a downhill
grade, the system lightly brakes the vehicle.
Increasing desired speed
Repeatedly press the lever up to or beyond the
resistance point, arrow
1, until the desired
speed is set.
> Each time the lever is pressed up to the
resistance point, the desired speed
increases by approx. 1 mph or 1 km/h.
> Each time the lever is pressed beyond the
resistance point, the desired speed
increases by a maximum of 5 mph or
10 km/h.
The system stores the setting and maintains
the set speed.
Accelerating with lever
Accelerate slightly:
Press the lever up to the resistance point,
arrow
1, until the desired speed is reached.
Accelerate more rapidly:
Press the lever beyond the resistance point,
arrow
1, until the desired speed is reached.
The vehicle accelerates without pressure on
the accelerator pedal. The system stores the
setting and maintains the set speed.
Reducing desired speed
Repeatedly pull the lever up to the resistance
point or beyond, arrow
2, until the desired
speed is displayed.
> Each time the lever is pulled up to the resis-
tance point, the desired speed decreases
by approx. 1 mph or 1 km/h.
> Each time the lever is pulled beyond the
resistance point, the desired speed is
decreased by a maximum of 5 mph or
10 km/h until the minimum speed of
20 mph or 30 km/h is reached.
The system stores the setting and maintains
the set speed.
If the speed is to be considerably
reduced, depress the brake, as otherwise
a dangerous situation could result due to insuf-
ficient deceleration.

Deactivating cruise control
Briefly press the lever up or down, arrow 3.
The displays in the speedometer go out.
In addition, the system is automatically deacti-
vated:
> when braking
> when transmission position N is engaged
> when DTC is activated or DSC is deacti-
vated
> when HDC is activated
> when DSC or ABS is active
Accelerating does not deactivate the cruise
control. After releasing the accelerator pedal,
