The cruise control is available for use at 
speeds of approx. 20 mph/30 km/h and 
higher. The vehicle maintains and stores 
the speed that you set using the lever 
mounted on the steering column.

Do not use the cruise control when 
driving on winding roads, in heavy 

traffic or in poor road conditions – e.g. 
snow, rain, ice, loose road surface – that do 
not permit a constant speed.

Press the lever up to the resistance point:
The system maintains and stores the cur-
rent vehicle speed. The display 1 in the 
speedometer indicates this regulated 
speed, refer to page 

briefly press the lever, the vehicle's speed 
increases by roughly 1 mph/1 km/h.

Press the lever up to the resistance point 
and hold it: 
The vehicle accelerates without pressure 
on the accelerator pedal. The system main-
tains and stores your current speed as 
soon as you release the lever.

Press the lever beyond the resistance 
point:
Increases the speed by 5 mph/10 km/h.

The vehicle may accelerate beyond the 
regulated speed on steep downhill 
stretches where the engine's braking effect 
alone may not be sufficient to slow the 
vehicle. Speed can drop on uphill grades if 
the engine output is insufficient.

Pull the lever:
Functions are the same as 1, only the vehi-
cle speed is reduced.

With the cruise control active, briefly press 
the lever up or down.
