Resuming a Set Speed
Suppose you set your cruise control at
a
desired speed
and then you apply the brake. This,
of
course, shuts off
the cruise control.
But
you don’t need to reset it.
Once you’re going about
25
mph
(40
km/h)
or
more,
you can move the cruise
control switch from
ON
to
R/A (Resume/Accelerate)
for about half
a
second.
You’ll
go
right back up to
your chosen speed and
stay there.
Increasing Speed While Using Cruise Control
There are two ways to go
to
a
higher speed:
Use the accelerator pedal to get
to
the higher speed,
Push in the SETKOAST button, then release the
button and
the
accelerator pedal. You’ll now cruise at
the higher speed.
Move the cruise switch from
ON
to
R/A.
Hold it
there until you get up
to
the
speed
you
want, and
then release the switch. (To increase your speed in
very small amounts, move the switch to R/A for less
than half
a
second and then release
it.
Each time
you do
this,
your vehicle will go about
1
mph
(
1.6
kmk) faster.)
The accelerate feature will only work after you set
the cruise control speed by pushing the
SETKOAST button.
