Cruise control
The concept
The cruise control is available for use at speeds 
of approx. 20 mph/30 km/h. The vehicle stores 
and maintains the speed that you set using the 
lever mounted on the steering column.
The cruise control can also be activated 
during electric driving, eDRIVE. The 
cruise control provides a particularly sensitive 
adjustment of the electric drive output.
<
Do not use the cruise control under driv-
ing conditions that do not permit a con-
stant speed, e.g. when driving on winding 
roads, in heavy traffic or in poor road conditions 
such as snow, rain, ice, and loose road surface. 
Otherwise you could lose control of the vehicle 
and cause an accident.

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 panel.
If the engine braking effect is not sufficient on 
steep downhill slopes, the vehicle may exceed 
the set speed.
Increasing 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 to the resis-
tance point, the speed is increased 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 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.
Deactivating cruise control
Briefly press the lever up or down, arrow
