Setting Cruise Control
CAUTION:
If you leave your cruise control switch on when
you’re not using cruise, you might hit a button
and go into cruise when you don’t want to. You
could be startled and even lose control. Keep the
cruise control switch off until you want to use
cruise control.
1. Move the cruise control switch to ON.
2. Get up to the speed you want.
3. Press in the SET button at the end of the lever and
release it.
4. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal.
The CRUISE light on the
instrument panel will
illuminate when the cruise
control is engaged.
Resuming a Set Speed
Suppose you set your cruise control at a desired speed
and then you apply the brake or press the clutch pedal
(if equipped). This, of course, disengages the cruise
control. But you don’t need to reset it.
Once you’re going about 25 mph (40 km/h) or more,
you can move the cruise control switch from ON to
R/A briefly.
You’ll go right back up to your chosen speed and
stay there.
If you hold the switch at R/A briefly, the vehicle will
keep going faster until you release the switch or apply
the brake. So unless you want to go faster, don’t hold the
switch at R/A.
