Note: This illustration is general and details may vary depending on model.
To put Cruise Control in standby mode:
Press the P5-1507-Symbol 5x3,5-CC rattknapp Centrum-V button on the steering wheel (2).
The Cruise Control markings and symbols will change from WHITE to GRAY, indicating that Cruise Control is temporarily deactivated and the driver needs to control the vehicle's speed.

Standby mode due to action by the driver

Cruise Control will be temporarily deactivated and put in standby mode if:
  • the brakes are applied
  • the gear selector is moved to N
  • the vehicle is driven faster than the set speed for more than 1 minute

The driver must then control the vehicle's speed.

Temporarily increasing speed using the accelerator pedal, e.g. when passing another vehicle, will not affect the setting. The vehicle will return to the set speed when the accelerator pedal is released.

Automatic standby mode

Cruise Control will be temporarily deactivated and put in standby mode if:
  • the wheels lose traction
  • the engine speed (rpm) is too low/high
  • the temperature in the brake system becomes too high
  • the vehicle's speed goes below 30 km/h (20 mph).

The driver must then control the vehicle's speed.
