1996 Volvo 850
NOTE: (AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION)
When driving up steep hills with the cruise control engaged, the transmission may shift intermittently.
This can be avoided by switching between transmission modes E or S while on the hill.
Normally, the ( E )conomy mode should be used when the cruise control is engaged.
Acceleration
Momentary acceleration, such as for passing, does not interrupt cruise control operation. The previously
selected speed will be maintained without having to set the switch to RESUME.
To disengage the cruise control system :
Set switch (B) to OFF, depress the brake pedal or move the gear selector to position N. Switching off the
starting (ignition) switch will automatically disengage the cruise control system.
On cars equipped with manual transmissions, the cruise control can also be disengaged by depressing
the clutch.
WARNING! The cruise control should not be used in heavy traffic or when driving on wet or slippery
roads. Do not use or resume cruise control in reverse gear.
When the ignition is switched off, any information stored in the cruise control memory is erased.
