AutoCruise Cruise Control

You can now enjoy the ultimate driving experience, thrill and comfort of taking your foot off the accelerator pedal and allowing the AutoCruise to maintain the speed you selected, while you have complete control over the vehicle at your fingertips.

Considering the long distances we travel in South Africa and the associated discomfort resulting from having your body and foot in one position all the time, fitting an AutoCruise is a wise investment.

Tests conducted on drivers that use cruise controls confirm that the reduced levels of driving stress results in a more alert driver and therefore a safer driver.

HOW TO OPERATE THE SYSTEM

The AutoCruise system is user friendly, safe and easy to operate. Start the vehicle, accelerate and stabilise the vehicle at the required speed, press the Set button on the command and the cruise control will take over the accelerator control from your foot and ensure that the set speed is maintained. The command allows you to increase or decrease the set speed. Should traffic conditions change, the cruise control can be disengaged by switching the cruise function on the command off or by pressing the coast button, brake or clutch. To return to the previous set speed after the unit was disengaged, press the resume button on the command. The minimum engaging speed can be set to meet the customers requirements. Normally this is set at 45km/h.
