Driving and Operating 9-43
The cruise control buttons are on
the left side of the steering wheel.
E (On/Off): Press to turn the
cruise control system on and off. An
indicator light comes on.
RES+ (Resume/Accel): Move the
thumbwheel up to resume a set
speed or to accelerate to a higher
speed.
−SET(Set/Coast): Press the
thumbwheel to set a speed or move
the thumbwheel down to decrease
the speed.
To set a speed:
1. Press
E to turn cruise control
on. The indicator light on the
button comes on.
2. Get to the speed desired.
3. Press the thumbwheel and
release it.
4. Take your foot off the accelerator
pedal.
When the brakes are applied, the
cruise control shuts off.
Resuming a Set Speed
If the cruise control is set at a
desired speed and then the brakes
are applied, the cruise control is
disengaged. The indicator light on
the instrument panel cluster goes
out when the cruise is no longer
engaged. To return to the previously
set speed, press the thumbwheel up
toward RES+ briefly when the
vehicle has reached a speed of
about 40 km/h (25 mph) or more.
This accelerates the vehicle to the
previously selected speed.
Increasing Speed While Using
Cruise Control
To increase the cruise speed while
using cruise control:
.
Move the thumbwheel up toward
RES+ and hold it until the
vehicle accelerates to the
desired speed, and then release
the switch.
.
To increase the speed in small
amounts, move the thumbwheel
up toward RES+ briefly and then
release it. Each time this is
done, the vehicle goes about
1.6 km/h (1 mph) faster.
.
Use the accelerator pedal to
reach the desired speed and
move the thumbwheel towards
−SET. The new desired speed
must be greater than the
previous set speed by at least
8 km/h (5 mph).
