Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well your cruise control works on hills
depends upon your speed, load and the steepness
of the hills. When going up steep hills, you may
want 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
nd this to be too much trouble and do not use
cruise control on steep hills.
Ending Cruise Control
There are three ways to turn off the cruise control:
Step lightly on the brake pedal.
Move the cruise switch to off, or
Shift the transmission to NEUTRAL (N).
Erasing Speed Memory
When you turn off the cruise control or the
ignition, the cruise control set speed memory
is erased.
Headlamps
The exterior lamps
knob is located on
your instrument panel
to the left of the
steering wheel.
c(Off):Turn the knob to this symbol and release
it to turn off the Daytime Running Lamps (DRL)
and the Automatic Headlamps (AHS). An indicator
illuminates when the position is selected. This
position is not available for vehicles rst sold in
Canada.
i(Automatic DRL/AHS):Turn the knob to
this symbol to put the system into automatic
headlamp mode.

messages. Pressing any of the DIC steering
wheel buttons — trip information, fuel information,
