Setting Cruise Control
The cruise control light on the instrument

limit wheel spin, the cruise control will
automatically disengage. Refer to “Traction
Control System (TCS)” in “Your Driving,
the Road, and Your Vehicle” in the “Driving
Your Vehicle” section. When road condi-
tions allow, the cruise control can be used
again.
Resuming a Set Speed
Suppose you set your cruise control at a
desired speed and then you apply the
brakes. This shuts off the cruise control.
The cruise symbol in the instrument panel
