Set speed

• The function is supplementary driver support intended to facilitate driving and help make it safer – it cannot handle all situations in all traffic, weather and road conditions.
• The driver is advised to read all sections in the Owner's Manual about this function to learn of its limitations, which the driver must be aware of before using the function.
• Driver support functions are not a substitute for the driver's attention and judgment. The driver is always responsible for ensuring the vehicle is driven in a safe manner, at the appropriate speed, with an appropriate distance to other vehicles, and in accordance with current traffic rules and regulations.

Motorbremse statt Bremsen verwenden

Der Tempomat regelt die Geschwindigkeit durch leichtes Bremsen. Bei Gefällestrecken kann es sinnvoll sein, etwas schneller rollen zu lassen und die Geschwindigkeit stattdessen nur durch die Motorbremse reduzieren zu lassen. Der Fahrer kann die Bremsfunktion des Tempomaten vorübergehend deaktivieren.

So deaktivieren Sie den Tempomat:

• Press the accelerator pedal about halfway down and then release it.
  • Cruise Control will automatically disengage the automatic brake function and speed will only be reduced using the engine braking function.
