GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR
54
Turn the ring (B) to (–) to lower the speed
memorised.
Each time the ring is actuated (B) the
speed increases or lowers by about 1.5
km/h.
Keeping the ring turned the speed changes
continuously. The new speed reached will
be maintained automatically.
The RCL button (C) resets the memorised
speed.
WARNING Turning the ignition key to
STOP or the ring (A) to OFF, the speed
memorised is cleared and the system is
switched off.
The ring (A) can be constantly left to ON
without damaging the device. However, we
suggest to disconnect the device when it is
not used, turning the ring to OFF, to avoid
fortuituous speed memorisations.
TO MEMORISE THE SPEED
Move the ring (A) to ON and take the car
to the required speed normally. Turn the ring
(B) to (+) for at least three seconds, then
release it. The car speed is memorised and
it is therefore possible to release the accelerator
pedal.
The car will continue to travel at the memorised
constant speed until one of the following
condition takes place:
– pressing the brake pedal;
– pressing the clutch pedal;
– if the VDC, ASR system cuts in;
– with Selespeed or Q-System transmission
if a gear is changed.
WARNING In the case of need (when
overtaking for instance) acceleration is possible
simply pressing the accelerator pedal;
later, releasing the accelerator pedal, the car
will return to the speed memorised previously.
TO RESET THE MEMORISED
SPEED
If the device has been disengaged for example
pressing the brake or clutch pedal,
the memorised speed can be reset as follows:
– accelerate gradually until reaching a
speed approaching the one memorised;
– engage the gear selected at the time
of speed memorising (4th , 5th or 6th speed);
– press the RCL button (C).
