Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well the cruise control works on hills
depends upon the vehicle speed, load, and
the steepness of the hills. When going up
steep hills, you may have to step on the
accelerator pedal to maintain your speed.
When going downhill, you may have to
brake or shift to a lower gear to keep your
speed down. If the brake pedal is applied,
cruise control will disengage.

If cruise control is active and a gear is
selected with the manual paddle shift
controls, the vehicle speed is maintained

the terrain or select D (Drive) on the
shifter for full automatic transmission
