How to use Cruise Control & Speed Limiter on YOUR Mercedes!

Cruise Control & Speed Limiter found on virtually all Mercedes-Benz takes the strain out of long drives but do you know what all of those buttons do? Find out today where I run through the whole system!

This video focuses on the new style of cruise control found on the steering wheel itself. If you have the previous style, please see the pinned comment in the comments section below to see how it works with the stalk.

Hey Guys!

So to use the cruise control and speed limiter on the stalk (the previous style) here are the movements of the stalk below:

Button on the end:
No light = Cruise Control
With light - Speed Limiter

Up/Down:
Sets it (as to what you’ve chosen above)

Push Away:
Cancels it

Pull toward you:
Resumes the previous set speed

Hope that helps!

Whenever I am lost with my new Benz, I always head to your channel. You ought to know you are super duper amazing and very helpful Nick. We can all see the hard effort you put in all your videos. We truly appreciate it. I am a fan, massive fan of yours from Australia 🇦🇺 Please take care~ ^^

The speed limit was useful the other week when I had a puncture on the motorway. RAC were able to plug the puncture but advised on not driving more than 40mph.

[scaphk]

Omg I realised my hand swiped on the button on the right sight of wheel mid steering. Randomly my car was set at 14 mph in a 30 zone 😂 I had no idea on how to set it back - holding up a massive queue of cars I panicked and just set my hazard light on and pulled over on a double yellow line😂. I reset the engine and luckily it turned back. Thanks to your vid all I wanted was the cancel button❤

[SB]

Also an important feature is the set button has 2 positions. Short press for +/- 1 mph, hard press for +/- 5 mph increments 🤓

My suggestion: please continue making these helpful and informative videos.

Cheers Nick. You gave me that 'double-click resume' to match road sign speed a few weeks back and I use it constantly now. Great feature. David

[snuggles]

That is such a handy feature Nick, thank so much for showing us how to use it. Dealerships never teach these important tips. Thanks once again mate.

its mind blowing that even in a car like this, adaptive cruise control is an option.. many other brands do offer advanced driver assistance system in basic/entry level models..

[darude]

I never used cruise control, don't have it in any or the cars I owned but always wondered how the controls work. I'm glad I stumbled across this well made video!

[kennethsmith]

Nick, Once again your timing is impeccable! I’ve been slowly going through my GLB operators manual and was going to start studying that this weekend. Looks like you did my homework for me again. :-) Thank you!

Love the double click on resume to read road signs

[peterking]

The first time I drove a car with cruise control was in Florida. It was a Dodge Ram and when I pressed 'resume' I assumed that the speed would ramp up to the previous set speed. It didn't. It floored it and scared the living cr*p out of me!

[JEreturns]

Hey Nick, here is a tip for you. Whilst driving and decide to use cruise control, it is a one button activation. That is, simply click the set + (middle button) once the desired speed is reached. No need to select cruise control by using the left button.

[wahmed]

I didn't know the double click for resume to copy the speed sign.Thanks for the tip :)

[geoffkeymer]

Hi Nick, great videos and I’ve learnt lot over recent months. Just thought I’d mention a point you made at the end of your video about the Limiter which might be important if viewers misunderstood. When you flip the button upwards you rightly said the Limiter will adopt the speed limit the car has recognised from speed signs. However, I thinks it’s important to note that this needs to be done every time the speed limit changes, it does not happen automatically when the speed limit changes. If drivers thought it was automatic, they could wrongly assume the car would not exceed the speed limit via the limiter. Hope that makes sense.

Nick....your a Mercedes legend!!!! Helped me so much with my new car

[joed]

Thanks for these amazing videos, you have saved me so much browsing time looking for information.

[Skittles]

Hi Nick thanks so much for your videos. We have just got an A Class a few days ago and neither of us know much about cars and I find the manual a bit of a challenge to get my head around! Your videos are helping us so much with getting to grips with the car! 🙏 ⭐️

[josephbuhagiar]

Hi Nick, Like Simon Greasley, The double click bit was new to me. That’s why I avoid missing any of your videos. Long may you reign. 🇬🇧🇲🇹👍
