Driving and Operating 221
Passing Another Vehicle While Using Cruise
Control
Use the accelerator pedal to increase the
vehicle speed. When you take your foot off
the pedal, the vehicle will slow down to the
previously set cruise speed.
While pressing the accelerator pedal or
shortly following the release to override
cruise control, briefly pressing SET–will
result in cruise set to the current vehicle
speed.
Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well the cruise control works on hills
depends upon the vehicle speed, load, and
the steepness of the hills. When going up
steep hills, you may have to step on the
accelerator pedal to maintain your speed.
When going downhill, you may have to
brake or shift to a lower gear to keep your
speed down. If the brake pedal is applied,
cruise control will disengage.
Cruise Control in Manual Paddle Shift Gear
Selection
When the vehicle is in M (Manual Mode)
and the manual paddle shift controls are not
being used, cruise control operates in the
same manner as D (Drive). When the vehicle is in M (Manual Mode)
and the manual paddle shift controls are
being used, cruise control operates as
follows:
.If cruise control is active and a gear is
selected with the manual paddle shift
controls, the vehicle speed is maintained
in the driver selected gear and will not
automatically upshift or downshift the
transmission while the driver gear
selection is active.
.If driving in hilly terrain, cruise control
may not be able to maintain vehicle
speed if an upshift or downshift is not
selected by the driver. While driving on
hilly terrain and cruise control is active
with a manual paddle shift gear selection,
the driver must select the proper gear for
the terrain or select D (Drive) on the
shifter for full automatic transmission
operation.
Ending Cruise Control
.Step lightly on the brake pedal.
.Shift the transmission to N (Neutral).
.Press*.
.To turn off cruise control, press1. Erasing Speed Memory
The cruise control set speed is erased from
memory if
1is pressed or if the ignition is
turned off.
Driver Assistance Systems
This vehicle may have features that work
together to help avoid crashes or reduce
crash damage while driving, backing, and
parking. Read this entire section before
using these systems.
{Warning
Do not rely on the Driver Assistance
Systems. These systems do not replace
the need for paying attention and driving
safely. You may not hear or see alerts or
warnings provided by these systems.
Failure to use proper care when driving
may result in injury, death, or vehicle
damage. See Defensive Driving 0170.
Under many conditions, these systems
will not:
.Detect children, pedestrians, bicyclists,
or animals. (Continued)

Vehicle Care 291
{Warning
Batteries can hurt you. They can be
dangerous because:
.They contain acid that can burn you.
.They contain gas that can explode or
ignite.
.They contain enough electricity to
burn you.
Use eye protection when handling the
battery. If you do not follow these steps
exactly, some or all of these things can
hurt you.
Caution
Ignoring these steps could result in costly
damage to the vehicle that would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty. Trying
to start the vehicle by pushing or pulling
it will not work, and it could damage the
vehicle.
The battery is under a battery cover and
side extensions/shields in the underhood
compartment. To access the battery under the hood, the
right hand and left hand sight shields need
to be removed to be able to remove the
second cover assembly to access the battery.
The positive battery terminal is on the
driver side and the negative terminal is on
the passenger side.
Before you connect the cables, here are
some basic things you should know.
Positive (+) will go to the positive (+)
terminal. Negative (−) will go the negative
(−) terminal.
1. Discharged Battery Positive (+)
Terminal
2. Discharged Battery Negative (−) Terminal 3. Good Battery Negative (−) Terminal
4. Good Battery Positive (+) Terminal
1. Check the other vehicle. It must have a
12-volt battery with a negative ground
system.
Caution
If the other vehicle does not have a
12-volt system with a negative ground,
both vehicles can be damaged. Only use
a vehicle that has a 12-volt system with a
negative ground for jump starting.
2. Get the vehicles close enough so the jumper cables can reach, but be sure the
vehicles are not touching each other.
If they are, it could cause a ground
connection you do not want. You would
not be able to start the vehicle, and the
bad grounding could damage the
electrical systems.
To avoid the possibility of the vehicles
rolling, set the parking brake firmly on
both vehicles involved in the jump start
procedure. Put an automatic transmission
in P (Park) or a manual transmission in
Neutral before setting the parking
brakes.
