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 or clutch takes you out of cruise
control. Many drivers find this to be too much trouble
and don’t use cruise control on steep hills.
If your vehicle is equipped with the exhaust brake option
and the exhaust brake is turned on, the exhaust brake
may come on and try to slow down the vehicle to the set
cruise control speed if the vehicle has accelerated
past the set cruise control speed while going downhill.
Ending Cruise Control
There are four different ways to turn off the cruise
control:
•
Step lightly on the brake pedal
(manual and automatic transmissions).
•
Press the clutch pedal to the floor
(manual transmissions).
•
Move the cruise switch to off, or
•
Shift the transmission to NEUTRAL (N).
Erasing Speed Memory
When you turn off the ignition, your cruise control set
speed memory is erased.
