System Deactivation
DCC can be activated from 30 km/h (settable up to max. 250 km/h) and is deactivated in the same manner as conventional/previous cruise control systems:
- Brake pedal actuation
- Deactivation of DSC
- Activation of DTC
- In automatic transmissions: selection of "N"
- For manual gearboxes the system remains activated during a gearshift:
- Active DSC intervention
- Deactivation by the driver
- Speed is reduced below 20 km/h
Only if the clutch is deactivated for more than approx. 4 to 6 seconds, does the cruise control shut down. (If no gearshift or change in engine speed is made within 5 seconds of such a signal, cruise control will be deactivated.)
In the event of an operational/system error, the following Check Control (CC) message will appear:
NOTE:
Unlike conventional cruise control, the driver with a manual gearbox can actuate the clutch and perform gearshifts without the system being deactivated. If however the driver does not pay attention to the gearshift request, the DCC is deactivated during slower driving at very high or very low engine speeds.
