OKTE15E36
The indication lamps should illuminate when
the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” po- sition and should go off after a few seconds.
If the indication lamps stay on or do not illu- minate when the ignition switch is turned to
the “ON” position, we recommend you to have your vehicle inspected as soon as possi-ble.
indication lamp blinks when the Active
Stability Control function or active traction
control function is operating.
indication lamp is illuminated when the
Active Stability Control function is OFF.
CAUTIONl When indication lamp blinks, Active Sta-
bility Control function or active traction con- trol function is operating, which means that
the road is slippery or that your vehicle’s wheels are slipping excessively. If this hap-
pens, drive slower with less accelerator in-
put.CAUTIONl If an abnormal condition occurs in the sys-
tem while driving, the indication lamp
will illuminate.
In these cases, follow these procedures:
• If the temperature in the braking system
continues to increase due to continuous brake control on a slippery road surface,
the
indication lamp will illuminate, and
operation of the Active Stability Control function and active traction control func-
tion will be suspended to protect the brake
system. (Normal operation of the vehicle will not be affected.) Park your vehicle in
a safe place. When the temperature in the
braking system has come down, the
in-
dication lamp will go off and the Active
Stability Control function and active trac- tion control function will start operating again.
• If the
indication lamp does not go out
even though the above procedure is fol-
lowed, there could be a problem in the system.
Stop the engine and start the engine again
and check whether the
indication lamp
goes out. If the indication lamp goes out, there is no abnormal condition.
If the
indication lamp illuminates even
after your vehicle is driven a short dis-
tance after restarting the engine, we rec-
ommend you to have your vehicle checked as soon as possible.
CAUTIONl If the vehicle is towed with the ignition
switch in the “ON” position and only the
front wheels or only the rear wheels raised off the ground, the ASTC may operate, re-
sulting in an accident. When towing the ve- hicle with the front wheels raised, keep the
ignition switch in the “LOCK” or “ACC” position. When towing the vehicle with the
rear wheels raised, keep the ignition switch in the “ACC” position.
Refer to “Towing” on page 8-22.Cruise control*
E00609100779
Cruise control is an automatic speed controlsystem that keeps a set speed. It can be acti-vated at about 40 km/h (25 mph) or more.
Cruise control*
6-50OKTE15E3Starting and driving6
CAUTIONlWhen you do not wish to drive at a set
speed, turn off the cruise control for safety.
l Do not use cruise control when driving con-
ditions will not allow you to stay at the same
speed, such as in heavy traffic or on roads that are winding, icy, snow-covered, wet,
slippery, on a steep downhill slope.
l On vehicles with manual transmission, do
not move the gearshift lever to the “N” (Neutral) position while driving at a setspeed without depressing the clutch pedal.The engine will run too fast and might be damaged.NOTEl Cruise control may not be able to keep your
speed on uphills or downhills.
l Your speed may decrease on a steep uphill.
You may use the accelerator pedal if you
want to stay at your set speed.
l Your speed may increase to more than the
set speed on a steep downhill. You must use the brake to control your speed. As a result, the set speed driving is deactivated.Cruise control switches
E00624100103
A- “ON OFF” switch
Used to turn on and off the cruise control.
B- “COAST SET” switch
Used to reduce the set speed and to set the
desired speed.
C- “ACC RES” switch
Used to increase the set speed and to return to
the original set speed.
D- “CANCEL” switch
Used to deactivate the set speed driving.
NOTEl When operating the cruise control switches,
press the cruise control switches correctly.
The set speed driving may be deactivated automatically if two or more switches of the
cruise control are pressed at the same time.To activate
E00609300771
1. With the ignition switch in the “ON” po-
sition, press the “ON OFF” switch (A) to turn on the cruise control. The
“CRUISE” indication lamp in the meter cluster will come on.
Cruise control*
6-51OKTE15E3Starting and driving6
NOTElIf the cruise control is on when the ignition
switch is turned to the “LOCK” or “ACC” position, cruise control will be on automati- cally the next time you start the engine.
The “CRUISE” indication lamp will also be
on.
l If the battery voltage is insufficient, the
memory data for the cruise control may be erased.
As a result, the “CRUISE” indication lamp may not come on when you restart the en-
gine.
If this happens, press the “ON OFF” switch once again to turn on the cruise control.
2. Accelerate or decelerate to your desired
speed, then press and release the “COAST SET” switch (B) when the
“CRUISE” indication lamp is illumina- ted. The vehicle will then maintain the
desired speed.
NOTEl When you release the “COAST SET”
switch, the vehicle speed will be set.To increase the set speed
E00609400570
There are 2 ways to increase the set speed.
“ACC RES” switch
Press and hold the “ACC RES” switch (C)while driving at the set speed, and your speed
will then gradually increase.
When you reach your desired speed, release
the switch. Your new cruising speed is now set.
To increase your speed in small amounts,
press the “ACC RES” switch for less than about 1 second and release it. Each time youpress the “ACC RES” switch, 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 press the “COAST SET” switch (B) and release the switch momentarily to set a new
desired cruising speed.
To decrease the set speed
E00609500500
There are 2 ways to decrease the set speed.
“COAST SET” switch
Press and hold the “COAST SET” switch (B)
while driving at the set speed, and your speed will slow down gradually.
