WARNING
Do not use the cruise control when driv-
ing under the following conditions:
∙ When it is not possible to keep the
vehicle at a set speed.
∙ In heavy traffic or in traffic that varies
in speed.
∙ On winding or hilly roads.
∙ On slippery roads (rain, snow, ice, etc.).
∙ In very windy areas.
Doing so could cause a loss of vehicle
control and result in an accident.
CRUISE CONTROL OPERATIONS
The cruise control allows driving at a speed
between 25 - 89 mph (40 - 144 km/h) with-
out keeping your foot on the accelerator
pedal.
To turn on the cruise control, push the
CRUISE ON/OFF switch. The CRUISE indica-
tor light or
indicator in the instrument
panel comes on.
To set cruising speed, accelerate the ve-
hicle to the desired speed, push the SET–
switch and release it. The SET indicator
light or
indicator in the instrument
panel comes on. Take your foot off the ac-
celerator pedal. Your vehicle maintains the
set speed.
∙ To pass another vehicle, depress the
accelerator pedal. When you release the
pedal, the vehicle returns to the previ-
ously set speed.
∙ The vehicle may not maintain the set
speed when going up or down steep
hills. If this happens, drive without the
cruise control.
To cancel the preset speed, use one of the
following three methods:
∙ Push the CANCEL switch; the CRUISE
indicator light or
indicator in the
instrument panel goes out.
∙ Tap the brake pedal; the CRUISE indica-
tor light or
indicator goes out.
∙ Push the CRUISE ON/OFF switch. The
CRUISE indicator light or
indicator
in the instrument panel goes out.
The cruise control is automatically can-
celed and the CRUISE indicator light
or
indicator in the instrument panel
goes out if:
∙ You depress the brake pedal while
pushing the RES+ or SET– switch. The
preset speed is deleted from memory.
∙ The vehicle slows down more than
8 mph (13 km/h) below the set speed.
∙ You move the shift lever to N (Neutral).
To reset at a faster cruising speed, use
one of the following three methods:
∙ Depress the accelerator pedal. When
the vehicle attains the desired speed,
push and release the SET– switch.
∙ Push and hold the RES+ switch. When
the vehicle attains the speed you desire,
release the switch.
∙ Push and release the RES+ switch. Each
time you do this, the set speed in-
creases by about 1 mph (1.6 km/h).
