TO INCREASE THE MEMORISED
SPEED
The speed memorised can be increased in
two ways:
❒ pressing the accelerator and then
memorising the new speed reached;
or
❒ moving the stalk upwards (+).
Each operation of the stalk will corre-
spond to a slight increase in speed (about
1 km/h), while keeping the stalk upwards
will correspond to a continuous speed in-
crease.
TO REDUCE MEMORISED
SPEED
The speed memorised can be increased in
two ways:
❒ disengaging the device and then mem-
orising the new speed;
or
❒ moving the stalk downwards (–) until
reaching the new speed which will be
memorised automatically.
Each operation of the stalk will corre-
spond to a slight reduction in speed (about
1 km/h), while keeping the stalk down-
wards will correspond to a continuous
speed reduction.
DEVICE DISENGAGEMENT
The device can be disengaged in the fol-
lowing ways:
❒ turning the knurled ring A to OFF;
❒ turning the engine off;
❒ pressing the brake pedal or engaging
the hand brake;
❒ pressing the clutch pedal;
❒ shifting gear with automatic transmis-
sion in sequential mode;
❒ with car speed below the preset lim-
it;
❒ pressing the accelerator pedal; in this
case the system is not really disen-
gaged but the request for acceleration
takes priority over the system. The
cruise control is however active and it
will not be necessary to press button
RES to resume previous conditions
after ending acceleration.
The device is automatically deactivated in
one of the following cases:
❒ ABS or ESP system cut-in;
❒ system failure.
When travelling with the de-
vice on, never set the
gearshift lever to neutral.
WARNING
In the event of device mal-
function or failure, turn the
knurled ring A to OFF and contact a
Fiat Dealership after checking the
protection fuse integrity.
