  Cruise control switch location Left top behind the steering wheel.  
  Cruise control switch task Setting cruise control/Distronic and variable speed limit.  
  Cruise control switch design Pushbutton switch with several switching contacts.  
  Cruise control switch function When the cruise control switch (S40/4) is operated, two switching contacts are always activated simultaneously. The actual input takes place by closing one of the switch contacts (storing the speed). The safety contact must close simultaneously so that the input is accepted.  
IMPORTANT   The switching signals are detected by the steering column module and transmitted to the CAN data bus.
