Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine To Reduce Speed While Using Cruise
Control
There are two ways to reduce ?bur speed while using
cruise control:
1. Push in the button at the end of the lever until you
reach the lower speed you want, then release it.
2. To slow down in very small amounts, push the
button for less than half a second. Each time you do
this, you’ll
go 1 mph (1.6 km/h) slower.
Passing Another Vehicle While Using
Cruise Control
Use the accelerator pedal to increase your speed. When
you take 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.

DRL work,
so be sure it isn’t covered.

come on
when:
0 The ignition is on
The headlamp switch is off, and
0 The parking brake is released.
When the DRL are on,
only your front turn signal lamps
will be on. The taillamps, sidemarker
and other lamps
won’t be
on. Your instrument panel won’t be lit up either.
When
it’s dark enough outside, your front turn signal
lamps will go
out and your headlamps will come on.
The other lamps that come on with your headlamps will
also come
on.
When it’s bright enough outside, the regular lamps will
go off, and your front turn signal lamps come on.
As with any vehicle, you should turn on the regular
headlamp system any time you need
it.
