(d) Resetting to a faster speed
Push the lever up in the “+ RES” direction and hold it. Release
the lever when the desired speed is attained. While the lever
is held up, the vehicle will gradually gain speed.
When the difference between the actual vehicle speed and the
set speed is less than 5 km/h (3 mph), the set speed can be
increased 1.6 km/h (1 mph) each time by pushing the lever up
in the “+ RES” direction quickly within 0.6 seconds.
However, a faster way to reset is to accelerate the vehicle and
then push the lever down in the “
−
SET” direction.
(e) Resetting to a slower speed
Push the lever down in the “
−
SET” direction and hold it.
Release the lever when the desired speed is attained. While
the lever is held down, the vehicle speed will gradually
decrease.
When the difference between the actual vehicle speed and the
set speed is less than 5 km/h (3 mph), the set speed can be
lowered 1.6 km/h (1 mph) each time by pushing the lever down
in the “
−
SET” direction quickly within 0.6 seconds.
However, a faster way to reset is to accelerate the vehicle and
then push the lever down in the “
−
SET” direction.
With the cruise control on, the vehicle will not decelerate even
if you downshift from the “D” position to “B” (engine braking).
The cruise control must first be cancelled. To reduce the
vehicle speed, you must reset the cruising speed using the
control lever or apply the brakes. Applying the brakes cancels
the cruise control.
(f) Resuming the preset speed
If the preset speed is cancelled by pulling the lever, by
depressing the brake pedal or vehicle stability control
activation, pushing the lever up in the “+ RES” direction will
restore the speed set prior to cancellation.
However, once the vehicle speed falls below about 40 km/h (25
mph), the preset speed will not be resumed.
