1) Traffic Conditions for Using Cruise Control
Use the cruise control system only when the traffic is not jammed, driving on motorways or highways
where there is no sudden change in the driving condition due to traffic lights, pedestrian, etc.
Improper use of the cruise control could be dangerous.
- Do not use on winding roads.
- Do not use in heavy traffic.
- Do not use on slippery, wet roads.
This could result in a loss of control, collision, and/or personal injuries.
The described speed value may vary slightly depending on the road conditions.

2. HOW TO OPERATE CRUISE CONTROL SWITCH
1) Setting a Desired Speed
To operate the cruise control, accelerate to the desired speed, which must be more than 36 km/h
(23 MPH) and less than 150 km/h (90 MPH).
When the desired speed is reached, push up the ACCEL switch of the cruise control lever or push
down the DECEL switch for 1 second per one switching and then release the accelerator pedal
slowly.
Now, the vehicle is cruised by this system with the set speed.
And you can set to other vehicle speeds again with above steps after an accelerator pedal
intervention during the cruise control running. 1.

4.
Never use the cruise control system until you get used to it.
Improper use or not fully aware of this function could result in collision and/or personal injuries.
(1) Manual transmission equipped vehicle
The cruise control is only available when the 3rd or higher speed gear is engaged.

2) Accelerating with the Cruise Control System
(1) While the cruise control system is running
Push up the ACCEL switch of the cruise control lever and hold it until the desired speed is reached
without an accelerator pedal intervention.
When the desired speed is reached, release the lever. 1.
2.
(2) While the cruise control system is not running
Accelerate using the accelerator pedal over 36 km/h.
Push up the ACCEL switch of the cruise control lever and hold it.
And then release the accelerator pedal slowly.
When the desired speed is reached, release the lever. 1.
2.

4.
(3) Tap-up while the cruise control system is running
Push up the ACCEL switch of the cruise control lever less than 0.5 second per one switching while
the cruise control system is running. This is a tap-up switching.
When you operate a tap-up switching, the vehicle is accelerated by 1.3 km/h over the previous set
speed.
If you want to accelerate to 13 km/h, operate the tap-up switching ten times without accelerating
with the cruise control system. 1.

3) Decelerating with the Cruise Control System
(1) While the cruise control system is running
Push down the DECEL switch of the cruise control lever and hold it until the desired speed is
reached without a brake pedal intervention. But the cruise control system cannot maintain the
cruise function at less than 34 km/h.
When the desired speed is reached, release the lever. 1.
2.
(2) When the cruise control system is not running
Push down the DECEL switch of the cruise control lever and hold it.
And then release the accelerator pedal slowly.
When the desired speed is reached, release the lever. But the cruise control system cannot
maintain the cruise function at less than 34 km/h. 1.
2.
3.
(3) Tap-down while the cruise control system is running
Push down the DECEL switch of the cruise control lever less than 0.5 second per one switching
while the cruise control system is running. This is a tap-down switching.
When you operate a tap-down switching, the vehicle is decelerated by 1.0 km/h below the previous
set speed.
If you want to decelerate to 10 km/h, operate the tap-down switching ten times without the brake
pedal intervention. 1.

4) Recovery of Set Speed (RESUME)
Even if the cruise control is cancelled, the previous set cruise speed can be recovered by pushing
(Type A) or pulling (Type B) toward the cruise control lever when the current vehicle speed is over 36
km/h without an acceleration intervention. But if you turn off the ignition switch, the memorized set
speed is cleared and you cannot recover the previous set speed.
The resume position should only be used if the driver is fully aware of this speed and wishes to
resume this particular speed.

5) Normal Cancellation of the Cruise Control
The cruise control system will be canceled when one or more items of the following conditions are
applied;
Keep the main cruise control switch in the neutral position when not using the cruise control.When the brake pedal is depressed.
When the cruising speed is downed less than 38 km/h.
When the OFF switch is operated by pulling the cruise control lever (Type A) or by pushing the ON-
OFF switch of the cruise control lever (Type B).
When ESP is activated.
When applying the parking brake when driving.
When using the clutch in order to shift (M/T only).
And the cruise control system can be operated again in driving state. 1.

(2) Using the Cruise Control on Hills
How well the cruise control works on hills depends on the speed, load, and the steepness of the hill.
When going up steep hills, you may have to depress the accelerator pedal to maintain your speed.
When going downhill, you may have to brake or shift to a lower gear to keep your speed down.
Applying the brake takes you out of the cruise control.
And the cruise control system cannot be operated again in driving state. In this case, you should stop
the vehicle, and turn off the ignition switch and then turn it on again. After you do that, you can use the
cruise control s
ystem again. But if the cruise control system isn’t recovered, you should contact
a Ssangyong Dealer for diagnosis of the cruise control system.
Abnormal changes of the gear selector lever can damage the engine. Do not move the gear shift
lever to Neutral while driving at the set speed. Automatic transmission damage may result.
The speed that has been set may not be maintained on uphill or downhill slopes.
The speed may drop to less than the set speed on a steep uphill grade. The accelerator must be
used if you want to maintain that speed.
The speed may increase to more than the set speed on a steep downhill grade. When the speed
increases too much, turn off the cruise control. -

(1) Abnormal Cancellation of the Cruise Control
When the rapid deceleration is applied without braking.
When the rapid acceleration is applied without acceleration pedal intervention.
When the cruise control lever is failed.
When the brake switch and the brake light switch input signal are implausible. 1.

1. CAUTIONS WHEN WORKING ON ELECTRICAL UNITS
80℃
10A 15A
Disconnect the negative cable from the
battery in advance when working on electrical
units. -
Make sure to turn "OFF" the ignition switch
and other lamp switches before
disconnecting or connecting the negative
battery cable. (Otherwise, semiconductor
parts can be damaged.)
Do not drop or appy excessive impact to
sensors and relays. -
If a fuse is blown, replace it with a fuse which
has the correct amperage rating. If you use a
fuse with higher capacity than the
specification, the component can be
damaged or catch fire. -
