Method 2:
1. Press and hold the
Resume/Accelerate button until you
reach the speed you desire.
2. Release the button once achieving
your desired speed.
Reducing Speed Using Cruise
Control
There are two ways to reduce speed
while using cruise control:
1. Press the Set/Coast button until you
reach the lower speed you want,
then release the button.
2. Slow down by 1-mph (1.6 km/h)
increments by briefly pressing the
Set/Coast button.
Passing Another Vehicle While Using
Cruise Control
Use the accelerator pedal to increase
your speed. When you remove your foot
from the pedal, the vehicle will return to
the speed you set earlier.
Using Cruise Control on Hills
When climbing steep hills while in cruise
control mode, you may have to use your
accelerator pedal to maintain your
speed. When descending hills, you may
have to apply the brake or shift to a
lower gear to slow down. However,
applying the brake or shifting to a lower
gear will disengage cruise control. To
prevent this, you may want to use your
cruise control Set/Coast feature as
described in the “Reducing Speed Using
Cruise Control” section above.
Ending Cruise Control
To end a current cruise control session,
step lightly on the brake pedal. To turn
off the system completely, press the
cruise on/off button.
See Section 3 of your Owner Manual.
Note:
You can also increase vehicle
speed by 1 mph (1.6 km/h) increments
by pressing the Resume/Accelerate
button briefly.
