Cruise control
11
910
FN0131
n The cruise control allows you to
maintain a desired speed (engine speed
- both on the move and in the PTO
regime) - without actuating the
accelerator pedal.
n Use three control buttons located on
the central panel of the instrument board
to control it.
n The cruise control starts to operate
when the speed reaches about 48 km/h
and in the PTO regime up to 48 km/h (it
can be selected).
Adjustment of cruise control
n Push the button 10 to activate the
cruise control.
n When the desired speed has been
achieved, push briefly the button 11
"adjust / increase" - now the speed is
stored and maintained by the engine
without applying the accelerator pedal.
n The speed can be increased by
depressing the accelerator pedal - after
releasing it, the cruise control function
is resumed (however, first the cruise
control must be activated).
n All functions will be cancelled by
depressing the clutch or brake pedal
and/or by switching off the button 10.
The resuming of the cruise control
function can be performed when you
push briefly the button 9 "resume /
reduce", it means that the cruise control
need not be set again.
Setting the PTO speed on
vehicle at standstill
n Push the button 10 to activate the PTO.
n Push and hold the button 11 "adjust/
increase" depressed (the adjustable speed
range 950 ÷ 3,000 rpm) to increase the speed
- hold the button depressed to increase the
PTO speed gradually - when the button is
depressed repeatedly, the PTO speed
increases by about 25 rpm steps.
n Push the button 9 "resume / reduce" to
activate the speed 1,200 rpm automatically.
Warning!
n When the cruise control is not
used, the "permanent (main)" control
button 10 must be switched off.
n The vehicle speed can be
influenced by driving uphill or by the
load weight. For that reason use the
cruise control only when driving on
level ground or in slight hilly terrain.

Heating and ventilation
n The cabin is heated by the hot-water
heating. It can be used also for heating
of coolant in the cooling and heating
circuits after starting the engine.
n The heater is controlled by heater
control elements on the instrument
board.
n Use the heater valve control knob
(item 3) to adjust the water volume
passing through the heating insert, and
thus also the temperature of the drawn
airflow (turn the control knob to the red
zone to supply the hot air).
n Use the control knob (item 1) to
adjust the fan speed and thus the air
volume circulating through the system.
The airflow speed can be set in four
steps.
n The control knob of the airflow
direction (item 2) allows you to change
the direction of airflow (way of cabin
heating).
n Push the button (item 4) to turn on /
