i On uphill or downhill grades, cruise control
may not be able to maintain the set speed. Once
the grade eases, the set speed will be resumed.
! Vehicles with automatic transmission*:
Moving the gear selector lever to position N
while driving also cancels cruise control. Howev-
er, the gear selector lever should not be moved
to position N while driving, except to coast when
the vehicle is in danger of skidding (e.g. on icy
roads).
i Vehicles with manual transmission: The set
cruise controlled speed is switched off when de-
clutching exceeds 4 seconds during shifting a
new gear.
i The last stored speed is canceled when you
turn off the engine.
i Depressing the accelerator pedal does not
deactivate cruise control. After brief accelera-
tion (e.g. for passing), cruise control will resume
the last speed set.
