To Change Cruising Speed
Using the accelerator pedal
To reset at a faster cruising speed, acceler-
ate to the desired speed using the acceler-
ator pedal and push the “SET/COAST”
switch (3). The new speed will be main-
tained.
Using the brake pedal
To reset at a slower cruising speed, decel-
erate to the desired speed using the brake
pedal and push the “SET/COAST” switch
(3). The new speed will be maintained.
NOTE:
When the brake pedal is depressed, the
“SET” indicator light goes off until reset the
cruising speed.
Using the cruise control switch
To reset at a faster cruising speed, press
repeatedly or hold in the “RES/ACC”
switch (4). Vehicle speed will steadily
increase. When you release the switch, the
new speed will be maintained.
To reset at a slower cruising speed, press
repeatedly or hold in the “SET/COAST”
switch (3) until the vehicle has slowed to
the desired speed, then release the switch.
The new speed will be maintained.
NOTE:
You can adjust the set speed by approxi-
mately 1.0 mph (1.6 km/h) by pushing a
cruise control switch quickly.Cancellation of the Cruise Control
The “SET” indicator light will go off and the
cruise control will be canceled temporarily
with following procedures:
 Push the “CANCEL” switch (2).
 Depress the brake pedal.
 For manual transaxle, depress the clutch
pedal.
 For CVT, downshift from 3rd to 2nd in the
manual mode.
 The vehicle speed falls more than about
20 percent from the set speed.
 Any time the vehicle speed falls below
25 mph (40 km/h).
 When the vehicle skids and ESP
® (if
equipped) is activated.
To resume the previously set speed, push
the “RES/ACC” switch (4) and turn on the
“SET” indicator light. Besides, the vehicle
speed has to be above 25 mph (40 km/h)
when the vehicle is not in the above condi-
tions.
To turn off the cruise control system, push
the “CRUISE” switch (1) and make sure
the “CRUISE” indicator light is off.
Also, if the malfunction indicator light in the
instrument cluster comes on or blinks, the
cruise control system will be turned off.
NOTE:
If you turn off the cruise control system, the
previously set speed in the memory is
cleared. Reset your cruising speed again.
Braking
60G165
The distance needed to bring any vehicle
to a halt increases with the speed of the
vehicle. The braking distance needed, for
example, at 60 km/h (37 mph) will be
approximately 4 times greater than the
braking distance needed at 30 km/h (19
mph). Start to brake the vehicle when there
is plenty of distance between your vehicle
and the stopping point, and slow down
gradually.
