PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION

Cruise control lets you maintain a set speed without keeping your foot
on the accelerator pedal.

USING CRUISE CONTROL

roads that are winding, slippery or unpaved.

steep hill. Apply the brakes if the vehicle speed increases above the set

The cruise controls are located on
the steering wheel.
