CRUISE CONTROL
(where provided)
DESCRIPTION
This is an electronic driving aid that
allows you to drive at a speed of above
30 km/h on long and straight dry roads
(e.g. motorways), at a preset speed
without having to press the accelerator
pedal. It is therefore not recommended
to use this device on extra-urban roads
with traffic. Do not use it in town.
ACTIVATING THE DEVICE
101) 102)
Turn ring 1 fig. 74 to ON.
The device cannot be engaged in 1stor
reverse gear: it is advisable to engage it
in 5
thgear or higher.When travelling downhill with the device
engaged, the car may slightly exceed the
stored speed.
Activation is indicated by the
warning
light switching on and, on some versions,
by a message on the display.
SETTING THE DESIRED SPEED
Proceed as follows:
turn ring 1 fig. 74 to ON and press the
accelerator to reach the required speed;
move the stalk upwards (+) for at least
1 second, then release it: the car speed is
now stored and you can therefore release
the accelerator.
If needed (when overtaking for instance),
you can accelerate simply by pressing the
accelerator; when you release the pedal,
the vehicle goes back to the speed stored
previously.
RESTORING THE MEMORISED SPEED
If the device has been disengaged by
pressing the brake or clutch pedal, the
stored speed can be reset as follows:
accelerate gradually until a speed
approaching the one stored is reached;
engage the gear selected at the time
that the speed was stored;
press the RES 2 fig. 74 button.
INCREASING THE MEMORISED SPEED
Press the accelerator and store the new
speed or move the stalk upwards (+).
REDUCING THE MEMORISED SPEED
Deactivate the device and store the new
speed or move the lever upwards (–) until
the new speed is reached. It will then
automatically be memorised.
DEACTIVATING THE DEVICE
To turn the device off:
Turn the ring 1 fig. 74 to the OFF
position;
or
switch off the engine;
or
press the brake pedal, the clutch or the
accelerator; in this last case the system is
not effectively deactivated but the
system gives priority to the acceleration
request. The device still remains active,
without the need to press the RES button
to return to the previous conditions once
acceleration is concluded.
Automatic deactivation
The device is automatically switched off
in the following cases:
if the ABS or ESC systems intervene;
with the vehicle speed below the set
limit;
in the event of system failure.
