To Set A Desired Speed
To set a desired speed, proceed as follows:
1. Turn the Cruise Control on.
2. When the vehicle has reached the desired
speed, push the SET switch up or down and
release to activate. When the accelerator is
released, the vehicle will maintain the
selected speed automatically.
SET Switch Location
If needed (when overtaking for instance), you can
accelerate beyond the set speed by pressing the
accelerator. When you release the pedal, the
vehicle goes back to the previously set speed.
When traveling downhill with the system active,
the vehicle speed may slightly exceed the set one.
NOTE:
Before pushing the SET switch, the vehicle must
be traveling at a constant speed on a flat surface.
To Vary The Speed Setting
To Increase Or Decrease The Set Speed
When the Cruise Control is set, you can increase
the speed by pushing the SET switch upward or
decrease the speed by pushing the SET switch
downward.
U.S. Speed (mph)
Pushing the SET switch once will result in a
1 mph speed adjustment. Each subsequent
movement of the switch results in an
adjustment of 1 mph.
If the switch is continually pushed, the set
speed will continue to adjust until the switch is
released, then the new set speed will be
established.
Metric Speed (km/h)
Pushing the SET switch once will result in a
1 km/h speed adjustment. Each subsequent
movement of the switch results in an
adjustment of 1 km/h.
If the switch is continually pushed, the set
speed will continue to adjust until the switch is
released, then the new set speed will be
established.
NOTE:
Moving the SET switch allows for adjusting of the
speed according to the selected unit of measure-
ment set on the radio system. Refer to the Infor-
mation and Entertainment System Owner’s
Manual for more information.
To Accelerate For Passing
While the Cruise Control is set, press the
accelerator to pass as you would normally. When
the pedal is released, the vehicle will return to the
set speed.
Using Cruise Control On Hills
The transmission may downshift on hills to
maintain the vehicle set speed.
The Cruise 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 Cruise Control.
To Resume Speed
To resume a previously set speed, push the RES
button and release. Resume can be used at any
speed above 20 mph (32 km/h).
NOTE:
Before returning to the previously set speed, you
must accelerate to a speed close to the set
speed, then push and release the RES button.
WARNING!
Cruise Control can be dangerous where the
system cannot maintain a constant speed.
Your vehicle could go too fast for the
conditions, and you could lose control and
have an accident. Do not use Cruise Control in
heavy traffic or on roads that are winding, icy,
snow-covered or slippery.
