Driving your vehicle
The cruise control system allows you to
program the vehicle to maintain a con-
stant speed without resting your foot on
the accelerator pedal.
With cruise control, you can set and
automatically maintain any speed of
between 40 km/h (24 mph) and 200 km/h
(125 mph).
To set cruise control speed:
1. Push the CRUISE ON/OFF button on
the steering wheel, to turn the system
on. The CRUISE indicator light in the
instrument cluster will illuminate.
2. Accelerate to the desired speed, which must be more than 40 km/h (24 mph)
and less than 200 km/h (125 mph). 3. Depress the COAST/SET switch,
located on the steering wheel, and
release it at the speed you want. The
“SET” indicator light in the instrument
cluster will illuminate. Release the
accelerator at the same time. The
desired speed will automatically be
maintained.
The SET function cannot be activateduntil approximately 2 seconds after theCRUISE ON/OFF button has been engaged.
On a steep grade, the vehicle maymomentarily slow down while goingdownhill.
CRUISE CONTROL (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING- Cruise control

WARNING
If the cruis e control is left on,
(CRUISE indicator light in the

To cancel cruise control, do one
of the following:
• Depress the brake pedal.
• Shift into N (Neutral).
• Depress the CANCEL switch locatedon the steering wheel.
• Depress the COAST/SET and RES/ACCEL switches at the same
time.
Each of these actions will cancel cruisecontrol operation (the “SET” indicator light in the instrument cluster will goOFF), but it will not turn the system off. Ifyou wish to resume cruise control opera-tion, depress the RES/ACCEL switch located on your steering wheel. You willreturn to your previously preset speed.
To turn crui se control off, do one
of the following:
• Push the CRUISE ON/OFF button on
the steering wheel (the CRUISE indi-
cator light in the instrument cluster will
go OFF).
• Turn the ignition off.
Both of these actions cancel cruise con- trol operation. If you want to resumecruise control operation, repeat the stepsprovided in “To Set Cruise ControlSpeed” on the previous page.
To increas e cruise control s et
s peed:
Follow either of these procedures:
• Depress the RES/ACCEL switch and
hold it. Your vehicle will accelerate.
Release the switch at the speed you
want.
• Depress the RES/ACCEL switch and release it immediately. The cruising
speed will increase 1.6 km/h (1 mph)
by one touch and will be memorized to
the reset speed.

Driving your vehicle
To temporarily accelerate with the
cruise control on
If you want to speed up temporarily when
the cruise control is on, depress the
accelerator pedal. Increased speed will
not interfere with cruise control operation
or change the set speed.
To return to the set speed, take your foot
off the accelerator.
To decrease the cruising speed:
Follow either of these procedures:
• Depress the COAST/SET switch and
hold it. Your vehicle will gradually slow
down. Release the switch at the speed
you want to maintain.
• Depress the COAST/SET switch and release it immediately. The cruising
speed will decrease 1.6 km/h (1 mph)
by one touch and will be memorized to
the reset speed.
To r e sume cruising speed at
more than 40 km/h (24 mph):
If any method other than the CRUISE
ON/OFF switch was used to cancel cruis-
ing speed and the system is still activat-
ed, the most recent set speed will auto-
matically resume when the RES/ACCEL
switch is depressed.
It will not resume, however, if the vehicle
speed has dropped below 40km/h (24
mph).
