Cruise control includes the following subfunctions:

IMPORTANT Variable and permanent speed limiters are also called SPEEDTRONIC control systems.

Variable Speed Limiter (except code (494) USA version) 

The Variable Speed Limiter enables the driver to set a maximum speed ranging from 30 km/h up to the maximum speed for himself.

Permanent Speed Limiter 

The Permanent Speed Limiter allows the driver to set (limit) the maximum speed of the vehicle (e.g. for winter tires with a lower permissible maximum speed).

Cruise control 

The cruise control allows the driver to maintain a target constant speed, and drive at that speed irrespective of engine load condition and without operating the accelerator pedal.
