Cruise Control
With cruise control, a speed of about 40 km/h (25 mph)
or more can be maintained without keeping your foot on
the accelerator. Cruise control does not work at speeds
below about 40 km/h (25 mph).
Cruise control will not work if the parking brake is set,
or if the master cylinder brake fluid level is low.
If the brakes are applied, the cruise control shuts off.
{
WARNING:
Cruise control can be dangerous where you
cannot drive safely at a steady speed. So, do not
use the cruise control on winding roads or in
heavy traffic.
Cruise control can be dangerous on slippery
roads. On such roads, fast changes in tire traction
can cause excessive wheel slip, and you could
lose control. Do not use cruise control on slippery
roads.

(TCS) begins to limit wheel spin while the cruise control
is on, the cruise control automatically disengages. See

allow you to safely use it again, the cruise control can
be turned back on.
