To Resume Speed:
To resume a previously set speed, push the “ACC/RES”
lever up and release. Resume can be used at any speed
above 20 mph (32 km/h).
To Vary The Speed Setting:
When the speed control is ON, speed can be increased by
pushing up and holding “ACC/RES”. Release the lever
when the desired speed is reached, and the new speed
will be set.
Tapping “ACC/RES” once will result in a 2 mph (3
km/h) speed increase. Each time the lever is tapped,
speed increases so that tapping the lever three times will
increase speed by 6 mph (10 km/h), etc.
To decrease speed while speed control is ON, push down
and hold “COAST/SET”. Release the lever when the
desired speed is reached, and the new speed will be set.
Tapping the “COAST/SET” button once will result in a 1
mph (2 km/h) speed decrease. Each time the button is
tapped, speed decreases.
Manual Transaxle:
Depressing the clutch pedal will disengage the speed
control. A slight increase in engine RPM before the speed
control disengages is normal.
Vehicles equipped with manual transaxles may need to be
shifted into a lower gear to climb hills without speed loss.
WARNING!
Speed Control can be dangerous where the system
can’t maintain a constant speed. Your vehicle could
go too fast for the conditions, and you could lose
control. An accident could be the result. Don’t use
Speed Control in heavy traffic or on roads that are
winding, icy, snow-covered, or slippery.
