Synchronising with an analogue connection
If the reaction to the speed is too slow, press the SET button to increase
the INIT value.
If the reaction to the speed is too sudden, press the RES button to de-
crease the INIT value.
You will hear a low-pitched signal each time you press the button.
To save the set sensitivity values, press the brake.
If the INIT value is changed, the speed regulator calculates the optimum
GAIN value and deletes the previous value in the control element.
Normally, no more settings on the control element are required. Therefore,
quit setup mode and test the speed controller in normal operation.
If the speed regulator works too slowly or too suddenly in control mode,
you must make the GAIN setting manually (see chapter "Setting the con-
trol sensitivity manually (GAIN mode)" on page 98).

Setting the control sensitivity manually
(GAIN mode)
The GAIN value must be increased if the vehicle slows down when the
cruise control is activated or if it reacts too slowly, for example excess loss of
speed driving uphill or excess acceleration driving downhill.
The GAIN value must be decreased if the vehicle speeds up when the cruise
control is activated or if it works too suddenly.
Example: You set a speed of 70 km/h and the vehicle's speed fluctuates
between 65 and 75 km/h during control mode. Normally the GAIN value
ensures that the cruise control operates smoothly in control mode.
To alter the GAIN value, proceed as follows:
Start setup mode (chapter "Starting setup mode" on page 91).
Apply the brake and hold it down.
With the brake applied, press the RES button four times.
You will hear four low-pitched signals.
Release the brake.
You will hear four acoustic signals.
Start the engine.
