Cruise control system with steering column stalk without on-board computer controls

Cruise control is intended particularly for drivers who often travel on motorways or roads on which it is beneficial to be able to keep to a constant speed. Cruise control helps the driver to maintain the set speed (at least 30 km/h) without having to press the accelerator pedal. This makes travelling less tiring. The speed can be set quite easily using the switch on the left-hand control lever below the steering wheel. The cruise control system for retrofitting has exactly the same functionality as optional equipment package 8T2, which is fitted as standard. In order to activate cruise control in vehicles with manual transmission, the vehicle must be in second gear or higher. In vehicles with automatic transmission, the gear selector lever must be in position D or S, or in the shift gate for sequential shifting. The cruise control function is automatically deactivated if the brake pedal is pressed, if an electronic assistance system (e.g. ESC) intervenes, or if the airbags are triggered. Cruise control can be manually deactivated using the switch on the control lever below the steering wheel. Please keep in mind that cruise control is intended merely to assist your driving. It does not in any way relieve the driver of their responsibility to keep the vehicle under control. Please refer to the vehicle‘s Owner‘s Manual for a detailed explanation of how to operate the cruise control system.
