▼To Resume Cruising Speed at More
Than 30 km/h (19 mph)
If the cruise control system is temporarily
canceled (such as by applying the brake
pedal) and the system is still activated, the
most recent set speed will automatically
resume when the RES switch is pressed.
If vehicle speed is below 30 km/h (19
mph), increase the veh
icle speed up to 30
km/h (19 mph) or more and press the RES
switch.
▼ To Temporarily Cancel
To temporarily cancel the system, use one
of these methods:
Slightly depress
the brake pedal.
Press the CANCEL switch.
(Manual transmission)
Depress the clutch pedal.
If the RES switch i s pressed when the
vehicle speed is 30 km/h (19 mph) or
higher, the system reverts to the previously
set speed.
NOTE
If any of the follow ing conditions occur,
the cruise control system is temporarily
canceled.
Even when the brake pedal is slightly
depressed.
The DSC is operating.
There is a problem in the system.
Any of the doors is opened.
The driver's seat belt is unfastened.
The parking brake is applied.
(Automatic transmission)
The selector lever is in the P or N
position.
(Manual transmission)
The shift lever is in the neutral
position.
When the cruise control system is
temporarily canceled by even one of the
applicable cancel conditions, the speed
cannot be re-set.
(Automatic transmission)
The cruise control cannot be canceled
while driving in manual mode (selector
lever shifted from D to M position).
Therefore, engine braking will not be
applied even if the transmission is
shifted down to a lower gear. If
deceleration is required, lower the set
speed or depress the brake pedal.

CAUTION
Do not install any accessories within the detection ranges of the sensors. It may
affect the
system operation.
 Depending on the type of obstruction and th e surrounding conditions, the detection range
of a sensor may narrow, or the sensors may not be able to detect obstructions.
NOTE
The system may not operate norma lly under the following conditions:
Mud, ice, or snow is adhering to the sensor area (Returns to normal operation when
removed).
The sensor area is frozen (Returns to normal operation when the ice is thawed).
The sensor is covered by a hand.
The sensor is excessively shocked.
The vehicle is excessively tilted.
Under extremely hot or cold weather conditions.
The vehicle is driven on bumps, inclines, gravel, grating, or grass covered roads.
Anything which generates ultrasonic waves such as another vehicle's horn, the engine
sound of a motorcycle, the air brake sound of a large-sized vehicle, or another vehicle's
sensors approaches the vehicle.
The vehicle is driven in heavy rain or in road conditions causing water-splash.
A commercially-available fender pole or an antenna for a radio transmitter is installed
to the vehicle.
The vehicle is moving towards a tall or square curbstone, or a steep grade.
An obstruction is too close to the sensor.
The vehicle is moving towards an uneven wall or stairs.
There are multiple obstructions.
The vehicle is driven in a place with low ceilings.
Obstructions under the bumper cannot be detected. Obstructions which are lower than the
sensor or thin may not be detected even though they were detected once.
The following types of obstructions may not be detected:
Thin objects such as wire, rope or poles
Things which absorb sonic waves easily such as cotton or snow
Angular shaped objects
Very tall objects, and those which are wide at the top
Small, short objects
