Using engine braking instead of applying the brakes
Cruise Control regulates speed by lightly applying the brakes. On downgrades, it cansometimes be desirable to roll a bit faster andlet speed be reduced instead by engine brak-ing alone. The driver can temporarily disen-gage the Cruise Control braking function. To disengage CC:
–Press the accelerator pedal about halfway down and then release it.
> Cruise Control will automatically disen-
gage the automatic brake function and speed will only be reduced using theengine braking function.
