Resuming a Set Speed
If the cruise control is at a set speed and the
brakes are applied, this disengages the cruise control.
The instrument panel cluster light
J
also goes out,
indicating cruise is no longer engaged. To return to
the previously set speed, it does not need to be reset.
Once the vehicle is going about 25 mph (40 km/h) or
more, press +RES. The vehicle goes back to the
previous set speed and stays there.
Increasing Speed While Using Cruise

speed is reached, then release it.

•
Press and hold the SET– button until the desired
lower speed is reached, then release it.

−
.
Each time this is done, the vehicle goes about
1 mph (1.6 km/h) slower.
Passing Another Vehicle While Using
Cruise Control
Use the accelerator pedal to increase the vehicle’s
speed. When you take your foot off the pedal, the
vehicle slows down to the cruise control speed that
was set earlier.
Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well the cruise control works on hills depends upon
the vehicle’s speed, load, and the steepness of the hills.
While going up steep hills, you might have to step on the
accelerator pedal to maintain the vehicle’s speed. While
going downhill, you might have to brake or shift to a lower
gear to keep the vehicle at a lower speed. However,
when the brakes are applied the cruise control turns off.
