When you step on the brake pedal or the vehicle speed drops below approximately 25 mph (40 km /h), for example when driving upgrade, the cruise control will be canceled. If the cruise control cancels by itself and remains inoperative until the engine is restarted, have the system checked at your authorized Mercedes-Benz Light Truck Center as soon as possible. 4 Resume If the lever is briefly pushed to position 4 when driving at a speed exceeding approximately 25 mph (40 km /h), the vehicle resumes the speed which was set prior to the cancellation of the cruise control. The last memorized speed is canceled when the key in the steering lock is turned to position 1 or 0. Important! Moving gear selector lever to position "N" switches the cruise control off. Warning! Only use the cruise control if the traffic and weather conditions make it advisable to travel at a steady speed. • The use of cruise control can be dangerous on winding roads or in heavy traffic because conditions do not allow safe driving at a steady speed. • The use of cruise control can be dangerous on slippery roads. Rapid changes in tire adhesion can result in wheel spin and loss of control. The "Resume" function should only be operated if the driver is fully aware of the previously set speed and wishes to resume this particular preset speed.
