Cruise control
Cruise control is a convenience system de-
signed to assist the driver during vehicle op-
eration. The driver must always remain
responsible for the vehicle speed and for
safe brake operation.
Distronic*
Use of cruise control is recommended for
driving at a constant speed for extended
periods of time. You can set any speed
over 20 mph (30 km/h).
AIRMATIC DC*
Park assist (Parktronic*)
The BAS, ABS, ESP and SBC driving sys-
tems are described in the "Safety and Se-
curity" section (୴ page 73).
Only use cruise control if the traffic and
weather conditions make it advisable to
travel at a steady speed.
The cruise control function is operated by
means of the cruise control lever.
The cruise control lever is the uppermost
lever found on the left-hand side of the
steering column (୴ page 20).

The use of cruise control can be danger-
ous on winding roads or in heavy traffic
because conditions do not allow safe
driving at a steady speed.
The use of cruise control can be danger-
ous on slippery roads. Rapid changes in
tire traction can result in wheel spin and
loss of control.
Deactivate cruise control when driving
in fog.
The "Resume" function should only be oper-
ated if the driver is fully aware of the previ-
ously set speed and wishes to resume this
particular preset speed.
