The operations must be
carried out with the engine
running.
On a steep descent or if the driver
accelerates sharply, the speed
limiter, which does not act on the
brakes, is not able to prevent the
vehicle from exceeding the programmed
speed.
In no circumstances does the speed limiter
replace the requirement to respect speed
limits, nor does it replace the need for
vigilance and responsibility on the part of the
driver.
The driver must remain vigilant and stay in
complete control of his vehicle.
Speed limiter function
This prevents the vehicle speed ex-
ceeding the speed programmed by
the driver (minimum speed of 18 mph
(30 km/h)).
