Deactivating Electronic Speed Control

A soft tap on the brake pedal or pulling the Electronic
Speed Control lever (CANCEL) toward you will deacti-
vate the Electronic Speed Control without erasing the set
speed memory. Pushing the ON/OFF button to the OFF
position or turning OFF the ignition erases the set speed
memory.

To Resume Speed

To resume a previously set speed, raise the Electronic
Speed Control lever (RESUME ACCEL) upwards and
release. Resume can be used at any speed above 30 mph
(50 km/h).

Varying The Speed Setting

When the Electronic Speed Control is set, you can in-
crease speed by pushing up and holding the RESUME
ACCEL lever. If the lever is continually held in the

RESUME ACCEL position, the set speed will continue to
increase until the lever is released, then the new set speed
will be established.

Raising the Electronic Speed Control lever RESUME
ACCEL upwards once will result in a 1 mph (1 km/h)
speed increase. Each time the lever is tapped upward
speed increases, so tapping the lever three times will
increase speed by 3 mph (5 km/h), etc.

To decrease speed while the Electronic Speed Control is
set, push down and hold the SET DECEL lever. If the
lever is continually held in the SET DECEL position, the
set speed will continue to decrease until the lever is
released. Release the lever when the desired speed is
reached, and the new set speed will be established.

Tapping the Electronic Speed Control lever SET DECEL
downward once will result in a 1 mph (1 km/h) speed
decrease. Each time the lever is tapped downward, speed
decreases.
