Using other driving systems
CRUISE CONTROL
The cruise control system is designed to maintain a set cruising speed without requiring
the driver to operate the accelerator.
Within the limits of the engine’s
capabilities, cruising speed can be set and
maintained above 40 km/h up or down
grades. However, changes in vehicle speed
may occur on steeper grades.
1. Instrument cluster indicators
2. Cruise control switch
CAUTION
To help maintain maximum control of your vehicle, do not use the cruise control when
driving in heavy or varying traffic, on slippery (rainy, icy or snow-covered) or winding
roads, on roads with sharp bends, while towing a trailer or during emergency towing.
Avoid vehicle speed increases when driving downhill. If the vehicle speed is too fast in
relation to the cruise control set speed, cancel the cruise control and then downshift the
transmission to use engine braking to slow down.
Turning the system on and off
Press the cruise control ON–OFF button
to turn the cruise control system on. The
cruise control indicator on the instrument
cluster will illuminate to indicate the cruise
control is operational.
Pressing the ON–OFF button again turns
the system off.
When the system is turned off, cruising
speed must be reset when the cruise
control is turned on again.
CAUTION
To avoid accidentally engaging the cruise control, turn the system off when it is not in
use. Make sure the cruise control indicator is off.
