DRIVING
On a steep descent or in the
event of sharp acceleration, the
speed limiter will not be able to
prevent the vehicle from excee-
ding the programmed speed.
To avoid any risk of jamming of
the pedals:
- ensure that the mat is posi-tioned correctly,
- do not fi t one mat on top of another.
Programming

 Turn thumb wheel 1 to the "LIMIT"
position: the speed limiter mode
is selected but is not switched on
(PAUSE).
You do not have to switch the speed
limiter on in order to set the speed.

 Set the speed value by pressing button 2 or 3 (e.g.: 55 mph
(90 km/h)).
You can then change the programmed speed using but tons 2
and 3 :
- by + or - 1 mph (km/h) = short press,
- by + or - 5 mph (km/h) = long press,
- in steps of + or - 5 mph (km/h) = maintained press.

Returning to the programmed speed, by means of int entional or
unintentional deceleration of the vehicle, automati cally cancels
the fl ashing of the programmed speed.
