2.Accelerate or decelerate to your desired
speed, then push down and release the SET - switch (B). The vehicle will thenmaintain the desired speed.
The “SET” indicator appears on the in- formation display in the meter cluster.
NOTEl When you release the SET - switch (B), the
vehicle speed will be set.To increase the set speed
E00609400668
There are 2 ways to increase the set speed.
RES + switch
Push up and hold the RES + switch (C) while
driving at the set speed, and your speed will then gradually increase.

the switch. Your new cruising speed is now set.
To increase your speed in small amounts,
push up the RES + switch (C) for less than about 1 second and release it.
Each time you press the RES + switch (C), your vehicle will go about 1.6 km/h (1 mph)
faster.
Accelerator pedal
While driving at the set speed, use the accel-
erator pedal to reach your desired speed and
then push down the SET - switch (B) and re- lease the switch momentarily to set a new de-
sired cruising speed.
To decrease the set speed
E00609500584

To deactivate
E00609702391
The set speed driving can be deactivated as follows:
l Press the CRUISE CONTROL ON/OFF
switch (A) (Cruise control will be turned off.)
l Press the CANCEL switch (D).
l Depress the brake pedal.
The set speed driving is deactivated automat-
ically in any of the following ways.
l When your speed slows to about
15 km/h (9 mph) or more below the set speed because of a hill, etc.
l When your speed slows to about
40 km/h (25 mph) or less.
l When the Active Stability Control
(ASC) starts operating.
Refer to “Active stability control (ASC)”
on page 7-31.
WARNINGl Although the set speed driving will be de-
activated when shifting to the “N” (NEU-
TRAL) position, never move the selector lever to the “N” (NEUTRAL) position
while driving.

To resume the set speed
E00609801715
If the set speed driving is deactivated by the
condition described in “To deactivate” on
page 7-37, you can resume the previously set
speed by push up the RES + switch (C) while
driving at a speed of about 40 km/h (25 mph)
or higher. The “SET” indicator appears on
the information display in the meter cluster.
Under either of the following conditions, however, using the switch does not allow you
to resume the previously set speed. In these
situations, repeat the speed setting procedure:
l The CRUISE CONTROL ON/OFF
switch is pressed.
l The operation mode is put in OFF.
l Indicator display go off.
Speed Limiter*
E00633201048
The Speed Limiter is a driver assist function to prevent from exceeding the speed set by
driver while Plug-in Hybrid EV System pow- er control.CAUTIONl Because the system does not use service
brake (hydraulic brake), the vehicle speed
may exceed the set speed on the downhill.
If a driver wants to keep the vehicle speed in such a situation, he/she must put on a servicebrake.
If the vehicle speed exceeds the set speed
(about 3 km/h (2 mph)), the indicator will
brink in the combination meter.
If the vehicle speed exceeds the set speed about +3 km/h (2 mph) more than about 5 seconds after indicated alert message, beep
alert is sounded for about 10 seconds at the most.
While running without alert message, if you
decrease the set speed and vehicle speed is more than set speed about +3 km/h (2 mph) ,
alert message is displayed but beep alert is delayed.
In this case, when vehicle speed keeps ex-
ceeding set speed about +3 km/h (2 mph) for
about 30 seconds after the alert message is appeared, beep alert is sounded for about 10
seconds at the most.
If the vehicle speeds decreases less than set
speeds after the alert message is appeared, the message is disappeared. When beep alert is sounding, the beep alert also goes off.NOTEl However, this gives priority to audio and
visual signal of safety reasons or driver’s de-mand.Speed Limiter control switches
