- Press and hold: Release the button when the set speed
indicator (3) has moved to the desired speed.

Pressing the accelerator
pedal
If speed is increased by depressing the accelerator pedal while pressing the
(1) button on the steering wheel, the
vehicle's speed when the button is pressed will be stored as the set speed.
Temporarily increasing speed using the accelerator pedal, e.g. when passing another
vehicle, will not affect the setting. The vehicle will return to the set speed when
the accelerator pedal is released.
