The speed is stored and a
corresponding message appears in
the Driver Information Centre.
Reactivation
Press switch R at a speed above
30 km/h.
If the stored speed is much higher
than the current speed, the vehicle
will accelerate powerfully until the
stored speed is obtained.
Pressing switch < will also reactivate
the cruise control function, but at the
current vehicle speed only, not the
stored speed.
Deleting the stored speedPress switch m: Green control
