4) Ensure that vehicle is maintained at the speed set when
command switch was pressed.
4. ACCELERATION TEST
1) Set vehicle speed at speed greater than 40 km/h (25
MPH).
2) Ensure that vehicle continues to accelerate while hold-
ing command switch in RESUME/ACCEL mode, and that
vehicle maintains that optional speed when command
switch is released.
5. DECELERATION TEST
1) Set vehicle speed at optional speed greater than 40
km/h (25 MPH).
2) Ensure that vehicle continues to decelerate while hold-
ing command switch in SET/COAST mode, and that it
maintains that optional speed when command switch is
