If the lever is continually held down, the set speed will
continue to decrease until the lever is released, then the
new set speed will be established.
Metric Speed (km/h)
Tapping the Speed Control lever down (-) once will
result in a 1 km/h decrease in set speed. Each subse-
quent tap of the lever results in a decrease of 1 km/h.
If the lever is continually held down, the set speed will
continue to decrease until the lever is released, then the
new set speed will be established.
To Accelerate For Passing
Press the accelerator as you would normally. When the
pedal is released, the vehicle will return to the set speed.
Using Speed Control On Hills
The transmission may downshift on hills to maintain the
vehicle set speed.
NOTE: The Speed 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 Speed Control.
WARNING!
Speed 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 Speed Control
in heavy traffic or on roads that are winding, icy,
snow-covered or slippery.
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) up to the maximum speed of 100 mph
(160 km/h).
To Deactivate
A soft tap on the brake pedal, pushing the RES button, or
normal brake pressure while slowing the vehicle will
deactivate Speed Control without erasing the set speed
memory. Rotating the center ring upward to turn the
system off or turning the ignition switch OFF erases the set
speed memory.
