Deactivating Electronic Speed Control

A soft tap on the brake pedal or pulling the Electronic
Speed Control lever (CANCEL) toward you will deacti-

Speed Control lever (RESUME/ACCEL) upward, and
release. Resume can be used at any speed above 25 mph

increased by raising and holding the RESUME/ACCEL
lever upwards. When released, a new set speed will be
established.

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

To decrease speed while speed control is set, press the
SET/DECEL lever downward, and hold. Release the
Electronic Speed Control lever when the desired speed is

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