The displayed speed is stored and the vehicle reaches the stored speed if the road is clear.
▷ With each activation to the resistance point, the desired speed increases by approx.
1 mph/1 km/h.
▷ With each activation beyond the resistance
point, the desired speed increases by a maximum
of 5 mph/10 km/h.
