Reducing Speed While Using Cruise
Control
•
Press in the button at the end of the lever until you
reach the lower speed you want, then release it.
•
To slow down in very small amounts, briefly press
the set button. Each time you do this, you will go
about 1 mph (1.6 km/h) slower.
Passing Another Vehicle While Using
Cruise Control
Use the accelerator pedal to increase your speed.
When you take your foot off the pedal, your vehicle will
slow down to the cruise control speed you set earlier.
Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well your cruise control will work on hills depends
upon your speed, load and the steepness of the
hills. When going up steep hills, you may want 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. Of course,
applying the brake takes you out of cruise control.
Many drivers find this to be too much trouble and do not
use cruise control on steep hills.
Ending Cruise Control
To turn off the cruise control, do one of the following:
•
Step lightly on the brake pedal,
•
move the cruise control switch to off, or
•
shift the transmission to NEUTRAL (N).
•
If your vehicle has the StabiliTrak
®
feature, cruise
control will turn off if road conditions cause
StabiliTrak
®
to activate.
•
If the accelerator pedal is held longer than
60 seconds, cruise control will turn off.
The cruise control will turn off automatically if the
traction control system or StabiliTrak
®
system activate,
if your vehicle is equipped with either feature.
Erasing Speed Memory
When you turn off the cruise control or the ignition,
your cruise control set speed memory is erased.
