Resuming a Set Speed
Suppose you set your cruise control at a desired
speed and then you apply the brake. This, of
course, disengages the cruise control. But you do
not need to reset it.
Once you are going about 25 mph (40 km/h) or
more, you can move the cruise control switch
briefly from on to resume/accelerate.
You will go right back up to your chosen speed
and stay there.
If you hold the switch at resume/accelerate the
vehicle will keep going faster until you release the
switch or apply the brake. So unless you want
to go faster, do not hold the switch at
resume/accelerate.
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. Press the set button at the end of the
lever, then release the button and the
accelerator pedal. You will now cruise at the
higher speed.
Move the cruise switch from on to
resume/accelerate. Hold it there until you get
up to the desired speed and then release
the switch. To increase your speed in
very small amounts, move the switch briefly to
resume/accelerate. Each time you do this,
your vehicle will go about 1 mph (1.6 km/h)
faster.
If using the accelerator pedal and the set button at
end of the lever to increase cruise set speed,
the new set speed must be at least 5 mph higher
than the current speed for this method to work.
If it is not 5 mph higher, switch cruise switch
off, then on, and then reset your speed using the
set button.
