To temporarily accelerate with
the cruise control on:
If you want to speed up temporarily
when the cruise control is on,
depress the accelerator pedal.
Increased speed will not interfere
with the cruise control operation or
change the set speed.
To return to the set speed, take your
foot off the accelerator.
To cancel cruise control, do
one of the following:
Depress the brake pedal.
Shift into N (Neutral) with an auto-matic transaxle.
Press the CANCEL button.
Decrease the vehicle speed lower than the memory speed by 20
km/h (12 mph ).
Decrease the vehicle speed to less than approximately 40 km/h (25
mph).
Each of these actions will cancelcruise control operation (the SETindicator light in the instrument clus-ter will go off), but it will not turn thesystem off. If you wish to resumecruise control operation, move thelever up (to RES+). You will return toyour previously preset speed.

To resume cruising speed at
more than approximately 40
km/h (25 mph):
If any method other than the
CRUISE button was used to cancel
cruising speed and the system is still
activated, the most recent set speed
will automatically resume when you
move the lever up.
It will not resume, however, if the
vehicle speed has dropped below
approximately 40 km/h (25 mph).
To turn cruise control off, do
one of the following:
Press the CRUISE button (the
CRUISE indicator light in the
instrument cluster will go off).
Turn the ignition off.

\b Vehicle-to-vehicle distance
The advanced smart cruise control
system (ASCC) allows you to pro-
gram the vehicle to maintain a set
speed so long as it is not limited by
traffic. When traffic is encountered
the vehicle will be slowed to maintain
a set distance behind traffic without
depressing the accelerator or brake
pedal.
ADVANCED SMART CRUISE CONTROL (ASCC) SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
OVG053312
WARNING- ASCC
Inadvertent Activation
If the advanced smart cruise
control is left on (CRUISE indi-
cator light in the instrument
cluster illuminated), it can be
activated inadvertently. Keep
the ASCC off (CRUISE indicator
light OFF) when the ASCC is not
in use to avoid setting a speed
which the driver is not aware of.WARNING- ASCC Limitations
The ASCC is a supplemental
system and is not a substitute
for safe driving practices. It is
the responsibility of the driver
to always check the speed and
distance to the vehicle ahead.
Do not use the ASCC when
conditions may prevent the
vehicle from maintaining pre-
dictable movement for the driv-
er. For example, driving in diffi-
cult or erratic traffic condi-
tions, or on slippery rainy, icy
or snow-covered roads. Also
avoid winding roads since your
ASCC may lose the ability to
track the vehicle in front of you
in such severe curves. Also
avoid severe up and down
grades [over 6%] since the
smart cruise control may not
be able to compensate for such
extreme inclines.

SET-) prior to setting any desired
speed. The SET indicator light in
the instrument cluster will illumi-
nate. Release the accelerator at
the same time. The desired speed
will automatically be maintained.
If there is a vehicle in front of you, thespeed may decrease to maintain thedistance to the vehicle ahead.

(Continued)
Always maintain care in observing your direction of
travel when using your ASCC
including potential dangerous
surprise events such as
pedestrians and suddenly
stopped or oncoming vehi-
cles.
The ASCC system is not a sub- stitute for proper and safe driv-
ing. Always drive safely and
use caution. The ASCC may
not detect every object in the
vehicle's direction of travel.

WARNING- Throttle
Override
Your ASCC will not slow or stop
your vehicle if you apply the
throttle, since the system is
