3 Cruise control
N00518300355
Cruise control is an automatic speed control system. It lets you
keep the same driving speed. Cruise control can be used at
speeds of about 25 mph (40 km/h) or more. It is especially use-
ful for freeway driving. Cruise control does not work at speeds
below about 25 mph (40 km/h).
NOTECruise control may not be able to keep your speed on
uphills or downhills.
Your speed may drop on a steep uphill. You may have to
use the accelerator pedal if you want to stay at your set
speed.
Your speed may increase to more than the set speed on a
steep downhill. You must use the brake to control your
speed. If your speed increases too much, turn off the
cruise control. (Refer to “To deactivate” on page 3-96.)
A- Main switch
B- Cruise control lever
CAUTION
!For safety reasons, deactivate cruise control system
using the main switch (A) when you are not using
the cruise control system.
(Refer to “To deactivate” on page 3-96.)
Cruise control is not recommended when driving
conditions will not allow you to stay at the same
speed, such as in heavy traffic or on roads that are
winding, icy, snow-covered, wet, or slippery, or on a
steep downhill. For vehicles with manual transaxle, if you shift to
“N” (Neutral) in cruise control mode without press-
ing the clutch first, the engine will run too fast and
might be damaged.
