Cruise control is equipped with numerous safety devices. These safety devices deactivate
cruise control if one or several of the following specified situations should occur:
1. When depressing the brake pedal;
2. when pressing the OFF-button on the control module;
3. when an engine overspeed condition occurs;
4. when decelerating to 50 % of the adjusted speed;
5. when accelerating to 150 % of the adjusted speed;
6. when switching off the ignition.
Cruise control also switches off if there are faults in the area of the brake light such as
e.g. defective brake lights, a defective fuse or a loose connection in the area of the brake
light switch.
To ensure safe and efficient operation, NEVER use cruise control in traffic jams or on wet,
slippery roads.
Attention! Cruise control also switches off if there are faults in the area of the
brake light such as e.g. defective brake lights, a defective fuse or a loose
connection in the area of the brake light switch.
Caution! Cruise control is equipped with a number of safety devices. However,
none of them is able to prevent twisting and jamming of the throttle lever.
Therefore, check everything twice!
