[CF16300(ALL)05/96]
If you drive up or down a steep hill, your vehicle may
momentarily slow down or speed up, even though the speed
control is on. This is normal.
[CF16400(ALL)02/96]
NOTE: If your vehicle is equipped with an automatic
transaxle, and if your speed increases above your set
speed while driving in Overdrive on a downhill
grade, you may want to turn the Overdrive off and
use Drive. You may turn the Overdrive off by
pressing the Transaxle Control Switch on the left side
of the gearshift lever. This will reduce vehicle speed
if it goes above your set speed on a downhill grade.
[CF16500(ALL)01/96]
NOTE: If your vehicle is equipped with a 5-speed manual
transaxle, and if your speed increases above your set
speed while driving in 5 (Fifth) gear on a downhill
grade, you may want to shift to 4 (Fourth) gear to
reduce vehicle speed. Depressing the clutch pedal
cancels speed control, therefore speed control must be
reset by pressing the SET/ACC or RES buttons. Speed
control cannot reduce the vehicle speed if it goes
above your set speed on a downhill grade.

To Speed Up
[CF16801(ALL)05/96]
Hold the Set Accel switch down and the vehicle will speed up
without the need to depress the accelerator. When the switch is
released, the system will maintain the speed reached. This speed
becomes the new stored speed.
[CF16901(ALL)05/96]
The vehicle speed can also be increased by momentarily
depressing the Set Accel switch (Tap up). Each tap will increase
the speed by approximately 1 mph (1.6 km/h).
[CF17001(ALL)05/96]
To Slow Down
[CF17101(ALL)05/96]
Hold the Coast switch down and the vehicle will slow down
under normal engine braking. When the switch is released, the
system will maintain the speed reached. This speed becomes the
new stored speed.
