SPORT MODE
The Sport mode increases steering
feedback to the driver with slight
increase in effort and changes the
transmission shift schedules for more
aggressive shifting. This driving mode is
useful while driving on twisty roads
where more steering precision is
desired in spirited cornering.
To activate Sport mode, toggle the
Sport Mode button forward and hold for
approximately 2 seconds. You will see
“Sport” illuminate in the Instrument
Panel cluster.
SPEED CONTROL
Speed Control
This is an electronically controlled
driving assistance feature that allows
the desired vehicle speed to be
maintained, without having to press the
accelerator pedal.
This feature can be used at a speed
above 25 mph (40 km/h) on long
stretches of dry, straight roads with few
variations (e.g. motorways).
It is therefore not recommended to use
this feature on city roads with traffic. Do
not use it in town.
Warning!
Do not use Speed Control under the
following conditions:
hilly terrain
steep inclines
heavy or unsteady traffic
slippery or winding roads
similar restrictions that require
inconsistent speed
Using the Speed Control under the
following conditions is dangerous and
could result in loss of vehicle control.
Activation / Deactivation
Note:
When the ignition is placed in the
OFF position, the system status before it
was turned off is stored. For example, if
the ignition is placed in the OFF position
while the Speed Control is operating, the
system will be operable when the ignition
is placed in the ON position the next time.
Activating Speed Control
Push the ON button located on the right
side of the steering wheel with the other
Speed Control buttons. The warning light
(amber) in the instrument cluster will
illuminate.
