Increasing Set Speed While Using
Adaptive Cruise Control
There are two ways to increase the set speed:
Use the accelerator 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 Adaptive Cruise Control switch from on to
resume/increase. Hold it there until the desired set
speed is displayed in the HUD, then release the
switch. To increase your set speed in very small
amounts, move the switch briefly to resume/increase.
Each time this is done, your vehicle set speed
increases by about 1 mph (1.6 km/h).
Your vehicle will not reach the set speed until the system
determines there is no vehicle in front of you. At that
point, your vehicle speed will increase to the set speed.
Decreasing Set Speed While Using
Adaptive Cruise Control
Press in the set/decrease button on the end of the lever
until you reach the lower desired speed, then release
the button.
To slow down in very small amounts, briefly press the
set/decrease button. Each this is done, your set speed
will be 1 mph (1.6 km/h) slower.
Resuming a Set Speed
If you apply the brakes while the Adaptive Cruise
Control is at a set speed, this disengages the Adaptive
Cruise Control. But it does not need to be reset.
Once the vehicle reaches about 30 mph (48 km/h) or
more, move the Adaptive Cruise Control switch briefly
from on to resume/increase. Adaptive Cruise Control
will be engaged with the speed previously selected.
