Cruise control*
You can store and automatically main-
tain any desired vehicle speed above
approx. 20 mph (30 km/h).
Do not use cruise control on
twisting roads, when high traffic
density prevents driving at a constant
speed, when the road surface is slick
(snow, rain, ice), or when the road
surface is loose (rocks, sand).<
To activate the system
From ignition key position 1:
Press button 1. The indicator lamp in
the instrument cluster comes on. You
can now use the cruise control.

to accelerate
Press button 2 briefly:
The system registers and maintains the
current vehicle speed. The speed will
now be increased by approx. 0.6 mph
(approx. 1 km/h) every time you tap the

sure on the accelerator pedal. When

cient, the controlled speed may be
exceeded. Speed may drop on uphill
grades if the engine output is insuffi-
cient.<

When the cruise control is active,
vehicle speed is reduced by approx.
0.6 mph (approx. 1 km/h) every time
you tap the button.

With the cruise control active, the
system automatically reduces the
throttle opening to slow the vehicle.
