Cruise Control (LS)
Cruise Control
The Cruise Control system allows you to set and automatically
maintain any speed above 30 mph (45 km/h) without keeping your
foot on the accelerator. As its name implies, it is meant for cruising
on straight, uncongested highways or freeways. It is not recom­
mended to be used in traffic, on winding roads or in bad weather
conditions where the driver should have total control.
To Set the Cruise Control:
Push the C R U IS E C O N T R O L
master switch on the dash; the
indicator light will come on.
Accelerate to the desired speed,
then push and release the S E T
switch on the steering wheel. The
Cruise Control light on the in­
strument panel will come on.
The speed you were going when
you released the S E T switch is the speed the Cruise Control will
hold. You can then "fin e tu n e" the set speed by briefly holding
and releasing the S E T switch to decrease it a few mph or pushing
the R E S U M E switch to slightly increase it.
To Cancel the Cruise Control:
Sim ply push the C R U IS E C O N ­
T R O L master switch until the
indicator light goes off (this also
erases the memory of the set
speed).
If you must temporarily disen­
gage the system (but retain the
memory of the set speed): tap
the brake pedal, or the clutch
pedal (5 speed transmission) or move the automatic transmission
shift lever to N (Neutral). If you are still going above 30 mph, you
can return to the set speed by simply pushing the R ES U M E switch.
If the car has decelerated below approximately 30 mph (45 km/h),
you can return to the set speed by using the accelerator conven­
tionally until you are above 30 mph and then pushing the R ES U M E
switch.
