Setting Cruise Control
{
CAUTION:
If you leave your cruise control on when you
are not using cruise, you might hit a button
and go into cruise when you do not want to.
You could be startled and even lose control.
Keep the cruise control switch off until you
want to use cruise control.
1. Press the cruise on/off button. The indicator light
will come on briefly.
2. Get up to the speed you want.
3. Press the set/coast button.
4. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal.
Resuming a Set Speed
Suppose you set your cruise control at a desired
speed and then you apply the brake. This, of course,
disengages the cruise control. But you do not need
to reset it.
Once you are going about 25 mph (40 km/h) or more,
you can press the cruise control resume/accelerate
button.
You will go right back up to your chosen speed and
stay there.
If you hold the resume/accelerate button the vehicle
will keep going faster until you release the button
or apply the brake. So unless you want to go faster,
do not hold the resume/accelerate button.
Increasing Speed While Using Cruise
Control
There are two ways to go to a higher speed:
•
Use the accelerator pedal to get to the higher
speed. Press the set/coast button, then release the
button and the accelerator pedal. You will now
cruise at the higher speed.
•
Press the resume/accelerate button. Hold it there
until you get up to the speed you want, and then
release the button. To increase your speed in
very small amounts, press the button briefly.
Each time you do this, your vehicle will go about
1 mph (1.6 km/h) faster.
