Cruise control* temporary deactivation and standby mode
The cruise control (CC – Cruise Control) helps the driver to maintain an even speed.
The function can be temporarily deactivated and set in standby mode.
Temporary deactivation - standby mode
To temporarily disengage cruise control and set it in standby mode:
- Press the steering wheel button .
> | The combined instrument panel's marking (5) and symbol (6) change colour from WHITE to GREY - cruise control is temporarily disengaged. |
Standby mode due to driver intervention
Cruise control is temporarily disengaged and automatically set in standby mode if:
- the foot brake is used
- the clutch pedal is depressed
- the gear lever/selector is moved to N position
- the driver maintains speed higher than the stored speed for longer than 1 minute.
The driver must then regulate the speed.
A temporary increase in speed with the accelerator pedal, e.g. during overtaking, does not affect the setting - the car returns to the last stored speed when the accelerator pedal is released.
Automatic standby mode
Cruise control is temporarily disengaged and set in standby mode if:
- wheels lose traction
- engine speed is too low/high
- speed falls below approx. 30 km/h.
The driver must then regulate the speed.
