WARNING (continued)  
WARNING (continued)  
people who wear such clothing are not recognised by the sensors of the  
parking aid.  
In order to prevent unintentional use of the cruise control system, always  
switch off the system after use.  
Note  
Note  
Only the front parking aid operates if you are towing a trailer (applies only to  
models which feature a factory-fitted towing device*).  
Models fitted with a manual gearbox: Always depress the clutch pedal if you  
switch on the cruise control system when the gearbox is in Neutral. Otherwise the  
engine can rev up unintentionally.  
If a warning signal sounds for about 3 seconds after activating the system and  
there is no obstacle close to your vehicle, this indicates a system fault. The fault is  
confirmed additionally when the symbol  
fig. 150. Have the fault rectified by a specialist workshop.  
The sensors must be kept clean and free of ice to enable the parking aid to  
operate properly.  
The cruise control system is not able to maintain a constant speed when driving  
flashes in the button page 128,  
on steep downhill sections. The weight of the vehicle increases the speed at which  
it travels. One should shift down in good time to a lower gear or slow the vehicle  
down by applying the foot brake.  
It is not possible on vehicles fitted with an automatic gearbox to switch on the  
cruise control system if the selector lever is in the position P, N or R.  
If the parking aid is activated and the selector lever of the automatic gearbox is  
in the position A, warning signal indicates interruption (vehicle can no longer  
P
move).  
Storing a speed  
Cruise control system (CCS)*  
Introduction  
The cruise control system (CCS) maintains a constant speed, more than 30 km/h (20  
mph), once it has been set, without you having to depress the accelerator pedal.  
This is only possible within the range which is permitted by the power output and  
braking power of the engine. The cruise control system makes it possible - particu-  
larly on long journeys - for you to rest your “accelerator foot”.

After you have released the rocker button Aout of the position SET, the speed you  
have just stored is maintained at a constant speed without having to depress the  
accelerator.  
Holding down the rocker button pressed in the SET position will cause  
the speed of the vehicle to reduce continuously. Once the vehicle has  
reached the desired speed, release the rocker button. The set speed is  
then stored in the memory.  
You can increase the speed by depressing the accelerator. Releasing the acceler-  
ator will cause the speed to drop again to the set speed.  
This does not apply, however, if you drive at a speed which is more than 10 km/h  
higher than the set speed for a period of longer than 5 minutes. The stored speed  
will be cancelled in the memory. You then have to re-store the desired speed.  
If you release the rocker button when the vehicle is travelling at a  
speed of less than 30 km/h, the speed is not stored, the memory is  
erased. It is then necessary to again store the speed with the rocker
