●Adjusting the set speed by the lever
To change the set speed, operate the lever until the desired se t
speed is displayed.
Increases the speed
(Except when the vehicle has
been stopped by system control
in vehicle-to-vehicle distance
control mode)
Decreases the speed
Fine adjustment: Momentarily
move the lever in the desired
direction.
Large adjustment: Hold the lever up or down to change the speed ,
and release when the desired speed is reached.
In the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode, the set speed will
be increased or decreased as follows:
Fine adjustment: By 1 km/h (0.6 mph)*1 or 1 mph (1.6 km/h)*2 each
time the lever is operated
Large adjustment: Increases or decreases in 5 km/h (3.1 mph)*1 or
5mph (8 km/h)*2 increments for as long as the lever is held

● When the speed of the preceding vehicle matches or exceeds
your vehicle speed
● When the preceding vehicle is traveling at an extremely slow
speed
● Immediately after the cruise control speed was set
● When depressing the accelerator pedal

Constant speed control mode is automatically canceled in the fo llowing situa-
tions:
● Actual vehicle speed is more than approximately 16 km/h (10 mph) below
the set vehicle speed.
● Actual vehicle speed falls below approximately 30 km/h (20 mph).
● VSC is activated.
● TRC is activated for a period of time.
● When the VSC or TRC system is turned off.
