Cruise Control
Cruise control lets a speed of about 40 km/h (25 mph)
or more be maintained without keeping your foot on
the accelerator. Cruise control does not work at speeds
below 40 km/h (25 mph).
{WARNING:
Cruise control can be dangerous where you
cannot drive safely at a steady speed. So, do not
use the cruise control on winding roads or in
heavy traffic.
Cruise control can be dangerous on slippery
roads. On such roads, fast changes in tire traction
can cause excessive wheel slip, and you could
lose control. Do not use cruise control on slippery
roads.
Setting Cruise Control
{WARNING:
If you leave your cruise control on when you are
not using cruise, you might hit a button and go
into cruise when you do not want to. You could be
startled and even lose control. Keep the cruise
control switch off until you want to use cruise
control.
The cruise control buttons
are located on the steering
wheel.

I(On/Off):Press to turn the cruise control system
on and off.
RES+ (Resume):Press to resume a set speed and to
accelerate the speed.
SET−(Set):Press to set a speed and to decrease
the speed.
To set a speed do the following:
1. Press
Ito turn cruise control on. The indicator
light on the button comes on.
2. Get up to the desired speed.
3. Press the SET−and release it. The cruise symbol
displays in the instrument panel cluster to show the
system is engaged.
4. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal.
When the brakes are applied, the cruise control
shuts off.
If the vehicle is in cruise control and the Traction
Control System (TCS) begins to limit wheel spin, the
cruise control automatically disengages. SeeTraction
Control System (TCS) on page 5-7. When road
conditions allow, the cruise control can be used again.
Resuming a Set Speed
If the cruise control is set at a desired speed and then
the brakes are applied, the cruise control is disengaged.
But it does not need to be reset. The cruise symbol in
the instrument panel cluster also goes out indicating
cruise is no longer engaged. Once the vehicle speed is
40 km/h (25 mph) or more, briefly press the RES+.
The vehicle returns to the previously set speed
and stays there.
Increasing Speed While Using Cruise
Control
There are two ways to increase the vehicle speed while
using cruise control:
•If the cruise control system is already engaged,
press and hold the RES+ button until the desired
speed is reached, then release it.
•To increase the vehicle speed in small amounts,
briefly press the RES+ and then release it. Each
time this is done, the vehicle goes about 1.6 km/h
(1 mph) faster.
