e your foot
off the pedal, your vehicle will slow down to the Cruise Control speed you
set earlier.
Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well your Cruise Control will work on hills depends upon \
your speed,
load, and the steepness of the hills. When going up steep hills, you may
have to step on the accelerator pedal to maintain your speed. \
When going
downhill, you may have to brake or shift to a lower gear to \
keep your speed
down. Of course, applying the brake takes you out of Cruise Control. Many
drivers find this
to be too much trouble and don’t use Cruise Control on
steep hills.
