Risk of accident
Cruise control is unable to take account of
road and traffic conditions.
Always pay attention to the traffic condi-
tions, even when cruise control is activated.
Cruise control is only an aid designed to as-
sist driving. You are always responsible for
the vehicle’s speed and for braking in good
time.
If there is a change of drivers, make the
new driver aware of the set cruise speed.
Otherwise, sudden acceleration or braking
could endanger you or others.

Risk of accident
Do not use cruise control:
I
in road and traffic conditions which do
not allow you to maintain a constant
speed (e.g. heavy traffic or winding
roads). You could otherwise cause an ac-
cident.
I
on slippery roads. Braking or accelerat-
ing could cause the drive wheels to lose
traction and the vehicle could then skid.
I
when there is poor visibility, e.g. due to
fog, heavy rain or snow
i Cruise control may not be able to maintain
the stored speed on uphill or downhill gra-
dients. The set speed is resumed when the gra-
dient evens out and the vehicle’s speed did not
fall below 30 km/h.
