Firstly, thanks to all for replies re. clarity of this button.

Sunny - this is precisely what happened for me - I caught the button by accident and I just couldn't figure what had happened. It was lucky that it was late in the evening when I did this and there was hardly any traffic around, as my speed dropped considerably, for the type of road that I was driving on. I waited for a point to pull over and realized what had happened.

I strongly urge anyone who has this Lim feature to be aware of it and that it can potentially drop your speed to very low, by simply catching the button - in error.
