tronic Speed Control System has been designed to shut
down if multiple Speed Control functions are operated
simultaneously. If this occurs, the Electronic Speed Con-
trol System can be reactivated by pushing the Electronic
Speed Control ON/OFF button and resetting the desired
vehicle set speed.
To Activate
Push and release the ON/OFF button located on the end
of the speed control lever. The Cruise Indicator Light in
the instrument cluster will illuminate. To turn the system
off, push and release the ON/OFF button a second time.
The Cruise Indicator Light will turn off. Be sure to turn
the system off when it is not in use.
NOTE: The Electronic Speed Control System will auto-
matically turn off when the engine is turned OFF.
