Chrysler 2009 300 - Owner Manual - Manual (Page 163)

WARNING!
The Resume function should only be used if traffic
and road conditions permit. Resuming a set speed
that is too high or too low for prevailing traffic and
road conditions could cause the vehicle to accelerate
or decelerate too sharply for safe operation. This
could cause an accident and/or serious injury.
To Vary the Speed Setting
While ACC is set, you can increase the set speed by lifting
and holding the lever up (RESUME/ACCEL). If the lever
is continually held, the set speed will continue to increase
in 5 mph (10 km/h) increments until the lever is released.
The increase in set speed is reflected in the EVIC display.
Tapping the lever up once will result in a 1 mph (1 km/h)
increase in set speed. Each subsequent tap of the lever
results in an increase of 1 mph (1 km/h).
While ACC is set, the set speed can be decreased by
pushing and holding the lever down (SET/DECEL). If
the lever is continually held, the set speed will continue
to decrease in 5 mph (10 km/h) increments until the lever
is released. The decrease in set speed is reflected in the
EVIC display.
Tapping the lever down once will result in a 1 mph
(1 km/h) decrease in set speed. Each subsequent tap of
the lever results in a decrease of 1 mph (1 km/h).
NOTE:
• When you use the lever to decelerate, if the engine’s
braking power does not slow the vehicle sufficiently to
reach the set speed, the brake system will automati-
cally slow the vehicle.
