The Radar Cruise Control

must only be used when

the road and traffic condi-

tions allow to keep a constant

speed in total safety for an ade-

quately long time.

IMPORTANT The system can only

be switched on when the car speed

ranges from 30 to 160 km/h and is

automatically switched off by press-

ing the brake pedal. If the car speed

falls below 30 km/h when the system

is on, a buzzer and a visual indication

warn the driver to take control of car

speed again. When the car speed ex-

ceeds 160 km/h after a slight acceler-

ation (“override” mode), a buzzer and

a visual indication will warn the dri-

ver that the system is off.

IMPORTANT The Radar Cruise

Control cannot be activated when the

driver has switched the ASR system

off.

CONTROLS (fig. 144)

The Radar Cruise Control is oper-

ated by three controls, as well as by

the accelerator (to increase speed)

and the brake pedal (to switch the

system off).

Controls are as follows:

– ring A to switch the system on/off

and to set the distance from the

vehicle ahead, depending on its

speed

– ring B to increase/decrease the

set speed

– button C to restore the stored

speed.
