Dodge 2010 Automobile User Manual


 
The Electronic Speed Control may not engage if a
different size tire is installed on one wheel, such as the
compact spare tire.
To Deactivate
The system will disable Electronic Speed Control without
erasing the memory if you:
Softly tap the brake pedal.
Press the brake pedal.
Pull the Electronic Speed Control lever toward you
(CANCEL).
Pushing and releasing the ON/OFF button or turning the
ignition OFF erases the set speed from memory.
To Resume Speed
If you deactivated the Electronic Speed Control without
erasing the set speed from memory and your vehicle
speed is above 20 mph (32 km/h) you can resume the
previous set speed. To do so, push the lever upward to
RESUME ACCEL and release. Then remove your foot
from the accelerator pedal.
To Vary the Speed Setting
When the Electronic Speed Control is set, you can in-
crease speed by pushing up and holding the RESUME
ACCEL lever. If the lever is continually held in the
RESUME ACCEL position, the set speed will continue to
increase until the lever is released, then the new set speed
will be established.
Tapping the Electronic Speed Control lever to RESUME
ACCEL once will result in a 1 mph (1.6 km/h) speed
increase. Each time the lever is tapped speed increases, so
tapping the lever three times will increase speed by
3 mph (4.8 km/h), etc.
To decrease speed while Electronic Speed Control is set,
push down and hold the Electronic Speed Control lever
