Deactivating cruise control

There are several ways to deactivate cruise control:

•► Briefly press the cruise control lever forwards 3.
or
•► Brake.

Cruise control is automatically deactivated if:

 - you depress the parking brake.
 - you are driving below 20 mph (30 km/h).
 - ESP® intervenes or you deactivate ESP®.
 - you shift the transmission to position N while driving.

If cruise control is deactivated, you will hear a warning tone. You will see the Cruise Control Off message in the multifunction display for approximately five seconds.

The last speed stored is cleared when you switch off the engine.
