Cruise Control
{
WARNING:
Cruise control can be dangerous where you
cannot drive safely at a steady speed. So, do not
use the cruise control on winding roads or in
heavy traffic.
Cruise control can be dangerous on slippery
roads. On such roads, fast changes in tire traction
can cause excessive wheel slip, and you could
lose control. Do not use cruise control on slippery
roads.
With cruise control, a speed of about 40 km/h (25 mph)
or more can be maintained without keeping your foot on
the accelerator. Cruise control does not work at speeds
below about 40 km/h (25 mph).
When the brakes are applied, cruise control is
turned off.
For vehicles with an Allison
®
or Hydra ‐ Matic 6 ‐ speed
automatic transmission, see “ Grade Braking and Cruise
Grade Braking (Allison Transmission) under Tow/Haul
Mode on page 3 ‑ 36 for an explanation of how cruise
control interacts with the Range Selection Mode, tow/
haul and grade braking systems.
If the vehicle has StabiliTrak
®
, and the system begins to
limit wheel spin, cruise control will automatically
disengage. See
StabiliTrak
®
System on page 6 ‑ 6 .
When road conditions allow the cruise control to be
safely used again, it can be turned back on.
