Setting Cruise Control
{
WARNING:
If you leave your cruise control on when you are
not using cruise, you might hit a button and go
into cruise when you do not want to. You could be
startled and even lose control. Keep the cruise
control switch off until you want to use cruise
control.
1. Press
I
/
O
to turn cruise control on.
2. Accelerate to the speed desired.
3. Press the SET − button and release it. The cruise
control light comes on in the instrument panel
cluster to show that the cruise control is on.
4. Take your foot off the accelerate pedal.
Resuming a Set Speed
If the cruise control is set to a desired speed and then
the brakes are applied, or the clutch pedal if you have a
manual transmission, the cruise control shuts off. But it
does not need to be reset.
Once the vehicle is going about 39 km/h (24 mph) or
more, briefly press the RES+ button. The vehicle
returns to the previously set speed and stays there.
If the RES+ button is held, the vehicle speed will
continue to increase until the button is released or the
brake pedal is applied. Do not hold in the RES+ button,
unless you want the vehicle to go faster.
Increasing Speed While Using Cruise
Control
There are two ways to go to a higher speed.
. Use the accelerator pedal to get to a higher speed.
Press the SET
− button, then release the button
and the accelerator pedal.
. Press the RES+ button. Hold it there until the
desired speed is reached, and then release it.
To increase the vehicle speed in small amounts,
briefly press the RES+ button and then release it.
Each time this is done, the vehicle goes about
1.6 km/h (1 mph) faster.
The accelerate feature only works after the cruise
control is turned on by pressing the SET
− button.
