Adjusting the set speed
In active mode the speed is adjusted with long
or short presses on , or . In active
mode the button has the same function as
but results in a lower increase in speed.
NOTE
If one of the cruise control buttons is kept
depressed for more than approx. one
minute then cruise control is disengaged.
The engine must then be switched off in
order to then reset cruise control.
In some situations cruise control cannot be
activated. In which case Cruise control
Unavailable is shown in the display, see
page 162.
Set time interval
The set time interval to vehicles in front is
increased with and decreased with .
Five different time intervals
can be chosen from and
shown in the display as 1–5
horizontal lines the more
lines there are the longer the
time interval, see page 164
for table.
At low speed, when the distances are short, the
adaptive cruise control increases the time
interval slightly.
The adaptive cruise control allows the time
interval to vary noticeably in certain situations
in order to allow the car to follow the vehicle in
front smoothly and comfortably.
Note that a short time interval only allows the
driver a short reaction time if any unforeseen
traffic problem should arise.
The number of lines for the
selected time interval is
shown during the setting itself
and for several seconds after-
wards. Then a smaller scale
version of the symbol is
shown to the right of the dis-
play. The same symbol is also shown when
Distance Alert is activated, see page 164.
NOTE
Only use the time interval that is allowed in
accordance with local traffic regulations.
If cruise control does not seem to react to
activation the reason may be that the time
interval to the closest vehicle prevents an
increase in speed.
The higher the speed, the longer the calcu-
lated distance in metres for a specific time
interval.
Deactivating and resuming settings
Cruise control is deactivated, either with a
short press on , or by means of driver inter-
vention, e.g. braking. The set speed is then
shown in brackets, e.g. ( 100). Speed and time
interval are resumed with one press on .
For each additional press on , when cruise
control is activated, the set speed increases in
stages of 1 km/h.
NOTE
A significant increase in speed may arise
after the speed has been resumed with .
A short press on in standby mode or a long
press in active mode deactivates cruise con-
trol. The set speed is cleared and cannot be
resumed.
Deactivation due to driver intervention
Cruise control is deactivated when the brakes
are used, the gear selector is moved to neutral
position, or if the accelerator pedal is
depressed for a longer period. Cruise control
then changes over to standby mode and the
driver must regulate vehicle speed manually.
If the accelerator pedal is kept depressed for a
shorter period, for example during overtaking,
cruise control is temporarily disengaged and
