Deactivating/reactivating the cruise control
The Cruise control (Cruise Control - CC) can be temporarily deactivated so that it is set in the standby mode and can be reactivated later.

Press the steering wheel button (2).
The speed limit markings and symbols in the driver display change colour from WHITE to GREY — Cruise Control is now temporarily deactivated and the driver can temporarily exceed the set speed.
Standby mode on driver intervention
The cruise control is temporarily deactivated and set in standby mode if:
- the foot brake is used
- the gear selector is moved to N position
- the driver maintains a speed higher than the stored speed for longer than 1 minute.
The driver must then control the speed himself/herself.
A temporary increase in speed with the accelerator pedal, e.g. during overtaking, does not affect the setting - the car returns to the last stored speed when the accelerator pedal is released.
Automatic standby mode
Cruise control is temporarily disengaged and set in standby mode if:
- wheels lose traction
- engine speed is too low/high
- brake temperature is too high
- the speed falls below 30 km/h (20 mph).
The driver must then control the speed himself/herself.
