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 previous set cruise speed.
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 have to step
on the accelerator pedal to maintain the vehicle’s speed.
When going downhill, you may have to brake or shift
to a lower gear to keep the vehicle’s 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
There are three ways to end cruise control:
•
Step lightly on the brake pedal.
•
Press the cancel button on the steering wheel.
•
Press the On/Off button on the steering wheel.
Erasing Speed Memory
When you turn off the cruise control or the ignition, your
cruise control set speed memory is erased.
Exterior Lamps
The exterior lamps
control is located on the
instrument panel to the left
of the steering wheel.
It controls the following systems:
•
Headlamps
•
Taillamps
•
Parking Lamps
•
License Plate Lamps
•
Instrument Panel Lights
The exterior lamps control has four positions:
9
(Off):
Turn the control to this position to turn off the
automatic headlamps and daytime running lamps (DRL).
Turn the headlamp control to the off position again to turn
the automatic headlamps or DRL back on.
For vehicles first sold in Canada, the off position will only
work when the vehicle is shifted into PARK (P).
