Storing the current speed

The system stores the current vehicle speed. It is indicated on the speedometer and briefly in the instrument panel.

Increasing desired speed

▷ With each activation to the resistance point, the desired speed increases by approx.

▷ With each activation beyond the resistance point, the desired speed increases by a maximum of 5 mph/10 km/h.

Reducing the desired speed

Pull the lever, arrow 2, until the desired speed is displayed.
