PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
Cruise control lets you maintain a set
speed without keeping your foot on the
accelerator pedal. You can use cruise
control when your vehicle speed is greater
than 20 mph (30 km/h).
USING CRUISE CONTROL
WARNINGS
Do not use cruise control on winding
roads, in heavy traffic or when the
road surface is slippery. This could
result in loss of vehicle control, serious
injury or death.
When you are going downhill, your
vehicle speed may increase above
the set speed. The system will not
apply the brakes. Failure to follow this
warning could result in serious personal
injury or death.
Note: Cruise control will disengage if the
vehicle speed decreases more than 10 mph
(16 km/h) below the set speed while driving
uphill.

Switching Cruise Control On

The indicator appears in the
information display.
Note: Using cruise control with ECO Cruise
switched on may change the operation of
the system. This feature saves vehicle
energy by relaxing acceleration compared
to standard cruise control. For example, your
vehicle may temporarily lose speed when
going uphill.
Energi vehicles: ECO Cruise can be turned
on or off through the information display.
See Information Displays (page 92).
Hybrid vehicles: ECO Cruise is included in
EcoSelect which is turned on or off using
the ECO button on the center console.
For additional information, refer to ECO
Cruise and EcoSelect. See Unique Driving
Characteristics (page 135).
Note: When you are going downhill while
using cruise control, the battery charging
system and engine work together to help
maintain your set speed. Engine noise may
increase or decrease under these conditions.
Setting the Cruise Speed
1. Drive to desired speed.
2. Press and release SET+ or SET-.
3. Take your foot off the accelerator
pedal.
