GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR

1
When travelling downhill with the device engaged, the car
speed may exceed the memorised one.
The engagement of the device is signalled by the Ü warn-
ing light lighting up in the instrument panel (together with
a message shown on the display) (see “Instrument panel
warning lights” in chapter 1).
MEMORISING VEHICLE SPEED
Proceed as follows:
❍ turn selector wheel A-fig. 31 to ON and press the ac-
celerator until the vehicle reaches the desired speed;
❍ turn selector wheel B to (+) for at least three seconds
and then release it: the car speed will be memorised
and the accelerator pedal may be released.
If required (e.g. for overtaking), press the accelerator ped-
al to accelerate: the car will return to the previously set
speed when the pedal is released.
RESTORING MEMORISED SPEED
If the device has been disengaged, for example by press-
ing the brake or clutch pedal, the memorised speed can
be reset as follows:
❍ accelerate gradually until you reach a speed ap-
proaching the one memorised;
❍ engage the gear selected at the time of speed memo-
rising (4th, 5th or 6th gear);
❍ press button C-fig. 31.
INCREASING THE MEMORISED SPEED
This can be carried out in two ways:
❍ by pressing the accelerator and then memorising the
new speed reached;
or
❍ by temporarily turning selector wheel B-fig. 31 to (+).
Each movement of the selector wheel will correspond to
a slight increase in speed (about 1 km/h), while keeping
the selector wheel turned will correspond to a continuous
speed increase.
REDUCING THE MEMORISED SPEED
This can be carried out in two ways:
❍ by disengaging the device and then memorising the
new speed;
or
❍ by keeping selector wheel B-fig. 31 turned to (–) un-
til the new speed is reached; it will then be memorised
automatically.
Each movement of the selector wheel will correspond to
a slight reduction in speed (about 1 km/h), while keep-
ing the selector wheel turned will correspond to a contin-
uous reduction in speed.
