Resuming a Set Speed

control. But it does not need to be reset.
Once the vehicle is driving at about 25 mph (40 km/h)
or more, press the +RES button on the steering
wheel. The vehicle will go back to the previous set
speed and stay there.
Increasing Speed While Using Cruise

To increase the cruise speed while using cruise control:
Press and hold the +RES button on the steering
wheel until the new desired speed is reached,
then release it.
To increase vehicle speed in small increments,

the vehicle goes about 1 mph (1.6 km/h) faster.
Reducing Speed While Using Cruise
