Increasing Speed While Using Cruise Control
There are two ways to go to a higher speed.
D Use the accelerator pedal to get to the higher speed.
Press the CST SET button, then release the button
and the accelerator pedal. You’ll now cruise at the
higher speed.
D Press the RES ACCL button. Hold it there until
you get up to the speed you want, and then release
the button. To increase your speed in very small
amounts, press the RES ACCL button for less
than half a second and then release it. Each time
you do this, your vehicle will go about 1 mph
(1.6 km/h) faster.
The accelerate feature will only work after you turn on
the cruise control by pressing the CST SET button.
Reducing Speed While Using Cruise Control
There are two ways to reduce your speed while using
cruise control:
D Press the CST SET button until you reach the lower
speed you want, then release it.
D To slow down in very small amounts, press the CST
SET button for less than half a second. Each time
you do this, you’ll go 1 mph (1.6 km/h) slower.
Passing Another Vehicle While Using Cruise Control
Use the accelerator pedal to increase your speed. When
you take your foot off the pedal, your vehicle will slow
down to the cruise control speed you set earlier.
