Using Electronic Speed Control On Hills
The transmission may downshift on hills to maintain the vehicle set speed
.
NOTE:
The Electronic Speed Control system maintains speed up and down hills
.
A slight speed
change on moderate hills is normal
.
On steep hills, a greater speed loss or gain may occur so it may be preferable to drive
without Electronic Speed Control
.
WARNING!
Electronic Speed Control can be dangerous where the system cannot maintain a con-
stant speed
.
Your vehicle could go too fast for the conditions, and you could lose con-
trol and have an accident
.
Do not use Electronic Speed Control in heavy traffic or on
roads that are winding, icy, snow-covered or slippery
