ENGINE RESTARTING CONDITIONS
Due to comfort, emission control, and safety
reasons, the engine can restart automatically
without any action by the driver, under special
conditions, such as:
Battery not sufficiently charged.
Reduced braking system vacuum (e.g. if the
brake pedal is pressed repeatedly).
Vehicle moving (e.g. when driving on roads
with a grade).
Engine stopping by the Stop/Start system for
more than approximately three minutes.
With the automatic climate control active, an
adjustment in cabin heating or cooling is made
or with MAX-DEF function active.
SAFETY FUNCTIONS
When the engine is stopped through the Stop/
Start system, if the driver releases their seat belt,
opens the driver's or passenger's door, or opens
the hood from inside the vehicle, the engine can
be restarted only by using the ignition.
This condition is indicated to the driver both
through a buzzer and a message on the
instrument cluster display.
ENERGY SAVING FUNCTION
If the driver does not carry out any action for more
than three minutes after the automatic engine
restart, the Stop/Start system will switch off the
engine in order to prevent fuel consumption.
In this situation, the engine can only be restarted
using the ignition device.

NOTE:
It is possible to keep the engine running by deac-
tivating the system.

To Vary The Speed Setting
To Increase Or Decrease The Set Speed
When the Cruise Control is set, you can increase
the speed by pushing the SET switch upward or
decrease the speed by pushing the SET switch
downward.
U.S. Speed (mph)
Pushing the SET switch once will result in a
1 mph speed adjustment. Each subsequent
movement of the switch results in an
adjustment of 1 mph.
If the switch is continually pushed, the set
speed will continue to adjust until the switch is
released, then the new set speed will be
established.
Metric Speed (km/h)
Pushing the SET switch once will result in a
1 km/h speed adjustment. Each subsequent
movement of the switch results in an
adjustment of 1 km/h.
If the switch is continually pushed, the set
speed will continue to adjust until the switch is
released, then the new set speed will be
established.

NOTE:
Moving the SET switch allows for adjusting of the
speed according to the selected unit of measure -
ment set on the radio system. Refer to the Infor -
mation and Entertainment System Owner’s
Manual for more information.
To Accelerate For Passing
While the Cruise Control is set, press the
accelerator to pass as you would normally. When
the pedal is released, the vehicle will return to the
set speed.
Using Cruise Control On Hills
The transmission may downshift on hills to
maintain the vehicle set speed.
The Cruise Control system maintains speed up
and down hills. A slight speed change on
moderate hills is normal. On steep hills, a greater
speed loss or gain may occur so it may be
preferable to drive without Cruise Control.
To Resume Speed
To resume a previously set speed, push the
RES button and release. Resume can be used at
any speed above 20 mph (32 km/h).

NOTE:
Before returning to the previously set speed, you
must accelerate to a speed close to the set
speed, then push and release the RES button.
Resume Button Location
In AutoStick (sequential) mode, before resuming
the previously set speed, you should accelerate
until you are close to that speed. Then, push and
release the RES button.
To Deactivate
A tap on the brake pedal deactivates the Cruise
Control without deleting the set speed.
The Cruise Control may also be deactivated by
applying the Electric Park Brake or when the
braking system is operated (e.g. operation of the
Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system).
The set speed is deleted in the following cases:
Pushing the on/off button a second time
The ignition is placed in the OFF position
If there is a malfunction with the Cruise Control
system
WARNING!
Cruise Control can be dangerous where the
system cannot maintain a constant speed.
Your vehicle could go too fast for the
conditions, and you could lose control and
have an accident. Do not use Cruise Control in
heavy traffic or on roads that are winding, icy,
snow-covered or slippery.

When the system is enabled and ready to
operate, the display shows the white ACC icon
above dashes in place of the speed.Enabled Icons
Setting a speed activates the system. The display
shows the icon in green with the set speed.
To Pause/Deactivate
With the feature enabled (speed not set), push
the on/off button to disable.
With the feature active (speed set), push the
on/off button to pause. The display will show the
icon in white with the speed in brackets. To
deactivate the feature, push the on/off button a
second time.To Set A Desired Speed
When the vehicle reaches the desired speed,
push the RES/SET switch downward and release
it to activate the system. When the accelerator is
released, the vehicle will maintain the set speed
automatically.
SET Switch
While the accelerator pedal is pressed, the
system will not be able to control the distance
between the vehicle and the one ahead. In this
case, the speed will be determined only by the
position of the accelerator pedal.
The system will return to normal operation as
soon as the accelerator pedal is released.
To Vary The Speed Setting
To Increase Or Decrease The Set Speed
Once the system has been activated, you can
increase the speed by pushing the RES/SET
switch upward or decrease the speed by pushing
the RES/SET switch downward. Each time the
switch is pushed, the speed is adjusted by 1 mph. Pushing and holding the switch upward or
downward will cause the set speed to adjust in
5 mph increments until the button is released.
The new set speed is reflected in the instrument
cluster display.

NOTE:

Moving the RES/SET switch downward allows
you to adjust the speed according to the
selected unit of measurement (U.S. or Metric)
set on the radio system. Refer to the
Information and Entertainment System
Owner’s Manual for more information.
When the unit of measurement is set to Metric,
pushing and holding the RES/SET switch will
adjust the speed in 10 km/h increments.
By keeping the accelerator pedal pressed, the
vehicle can continue to accelerate beyond the
set speed. In this case, use the RES/SET
switch to set the speed to the vehicle’s current
speed.
When you push the RES/SET button to reduce
the speed, the braking system intervenes
automatically if the engine brake does not slow
the vehicle down sufficiently to reach the set
speed. The device holds the set speed uphill
and downhill; however a slight variation is
entirely normal, particularly on slight inclines.
The transmission could shift to a lower gear
when driving downhill, or when accelerating.
This is normal and necessary to maintain the
set speed.
The system will disable while driving if the
brakes overheat.
WARNING!
Leaving the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
system on when not in use is dangerous. You
could accidentally set the system or cause it to
go faster than you want. You could lose control
and have a collision. Always leave the system
off when you are not using it.
