Control system of speed (темпостат)

The general information

The control system of speed (темпостат) enters into a standard complete set of some models, on others can be established in addition. The system allows to support automatically the chosen cruiser speed of movement of the car without influence on a gas pedal. Value of cruiser speed should be not below 40 km/h. Application темпостата becomes especially convenient at long movement on малозагруженным to direct country highways. For the purpose of safety it is not recommended to include темпостат at movement in a city, on twisting, abounding with turns, to roads, on a slippery road covering, in a strong rain and under other adverse weather conditions. In the cases listed above the driver should have possibility completely to supervise a mode of movement of the car.

 Misuse темпостата can be at the bottom of road and transport incident! Include a control system of speed only at movement on free highways and under favorable weather conditions. Attention: During system functioning there can be an automatic moving of a pedal of gas which thus should not be kept a foot in order to avoid damage of basic and axial mechanisms!


The lever switch of management темпостата is located by functioning on the right over a steering column, below assemblage right combined подрулевого the switch, system inclusion/deenergizing is made by means of the equipped built in control lamp of the button of the main switch темпостата and accompanied by operation of a corresponding control lamp on the panel of devices of the car.


Management of functioning темпостата

On the models equipped АТ, it is necessary to translate preliminary the lever of the selector of transfers to position «D».

Include темпостат, having pressed the button of its main switch (see above) - the control lamp built in the switch should light up.

Disperse the car till the demanded cruiser speed which value should not be less than 40 km/h.

Wring out the switch lever downwards in a direction "COAST/SET", then release, - gained by the car at present speed of movement will be automatically supported now. For increase in the set speed it is necessary to wring out the switch lever upwards in a direction "ACC/RES" (decrease in speed is reached отжиманием the lever downwards). Everyone отжимание the lever leads to change of value of the chosen speed on 1.6 km/h. Car acceleration at overtakings is made by squeezing of a pedal of gas, after отпускания which speed will automatically return to chosen earlier cruiser value.

 At use темпостата on equipped РКПП models do not translate a transmission in neutral position without squeezing of a pedal of coupling as it can lead to excessive increase of frequency of rotation of a cranked shaft!


Cancellation of the entered installation of cruiser speed of movement of the car can be made unitary procrastination of the lever of the switch темпостата in a direction «CANCEL», squeezing of a pedal of a foot brake, or squeezing of a pedal of coupling (model with РКПП). At decrease in speed of movement of the car below value of 40 km/h, or more than on 16 km/h below the chosen value also there will be an automatic dump of installation темпостата.

For system return to the value established earlier after dump of installations темпостата as a result of braking or coupling squeezing wring out the switch lever upwards («ACC/RES). Told does not concern a case when dump of installation has resulted from falling of speed below value of 40 km/h.

Deenergizing темпостата is made by repeated pressing the button of the main switch, or поворачиванием the ignition key in position АСС or LOCK (after a full stop of the car).

The control of serviceability of a condition of system

If the control lamp темпостата starts to blink at use of a control system by speed, switch off темпостат, then again it include by means of the button of the main switch. If at repeated inclusion of system the control lamp continues to function in a flashing mode, will join and at once will go out, or will not work at all, the car should be driven away on a car repair shop for detailed diagnostics of a condition темпостата.
