SPEED LIMITER
DESCRIPTION
This device allows the speed of the
vehicle to be limited to values which
can be set by the driver.
The maximum speed can be set both
with vehicle stationary and in motion.
The minimum speed that can be set is
30 km/h.
When the device is active, the vehicle
speed depends on the pressure at the
accelerator pedal, until the
programmed speed limit is reached
(see "Speed limit programming"
paragraph).
ACTIVATING THE DEVICE
To activate the device press button 1
fig. 119 on the steering wheel.The activation of the device is indicated
by the
symbol on the display, along
with a dedicated message and the last
speed value stored.
If the electronic Cruise Control has been
activated previously, button 1
fig. 119 must be pressed twice. The
first press switches off the function
activated previously; the second press
activates the Speed Limiter.
SPEED LIMIT
PROGRAMMING
The speed limit can be programmed
without necessarily activating the
device.
To store a speed value higherthan the
displayed one, briefly press the SET +
button. Each time the button is
pressed, the speed increases by about
1 km/h while keeping the button
pressed, the speed increases by
5 km/h intervals.
To store a speed value lowerthan the
displayed one, press the SET – button.
Each time the button is pressed, the
speed decreases by about 1 km/h
while keeping the button pressed, the
speed decreases by 5 km/h intervals.

new distance will be stored also after
the system is deactivated and
reactivated.
To decrease the distance
Press and release the
button to
decrease the distance setting.
The distance setting decreases by one
bar (shorter) every time the button is
pressed.
The set speed is held if there are no
vehicles ahead. Once the shortest
distance has been reached, a further
press of the button will set the longest
distance.
If a slower vehicle is detected in the
same lane, it will be shown on the
display in the “Driver Assist” area. The
device will automatically adjust the car’s
speed to maintain the set distance,
independently of the set speed.
The vehicle holds the set distance until:
the vehicle ahead accelerates to a
speed higher than the set speed;
the vehicle ahead leaves the lane or
the detection field of the Adaptive
Cruise Control device sensor;
the distance setting is changed;
the Adaptive Cruise Control device is
deactivated/cancelled.
IMPORTANT The maximum breaking
applied by the device is limited. The
driver may apply the brakes in all cases
if needed.
IMPORTANT If the device predicts that
the braking level is not sufficient to hold
the set distance, the driver is warned by
a message indicating that the vehicle
ahead is too close. An acoustic signal is
also emitted. In this case, it is advisable
to brake immediately as necessary to
hold a safe distance from the vehicle
ahead.
IMPORTANT The driver is responsible
for ensuring that there are no
pedestrians, other vehicles or
objectives along the direction of the
vehicle. Failure to comply with these
precautions may cause serious
accidents and injuries.
IMPORTANT The driver is fully
responsible for holding a safe distance
from the vehicle ahead respecting the
highway code in force in the respective
country.
DEACTIVATION
The device is deactivated and the set
speed is cancelled if:
thebutton is pressed on the
Adaptive Cruise Control;
thebutton is pressed on the
electronic Cruise Control;
the Speed Limiter button is pressed;
the ignition device is in the STOP
position.
The device is cancelled (the set speed
and distance are stored):
when the CANC button is pressed;
when the conditions shown in the
“Setting the desired speed” paragraph
occur;
when the vehicle speed drops under
the minimum set speed (e.g. in
presence of slow vehicles).
If these conditions occur while the
system is decelerating with respect to a
vehicle ahead, the system could
continue the deceleration, if necessary,
also after it is cancelled or deactivated
within the minimum speed settable on
the system.
SYSTEM LIMITED
OPERATION SIGNAL
If the dedicated message is shown on
the display, a condition limiting the
system operation may have occurred.
The possible cause of this limitation is a
failure.
When the conditions limiting the system
functions end, this will go back to
normal and complete operation. Should
the fault persist, contact a Fiat
Dealership.
