Reducing Speed While Using Cruise
Control
There are two ways to reduce your speed while
using cruise control:
• Press the SET button until you reach the
lower speed you want, then release it.
• To slow down in very small amounts, briefly
press the SET button. Each time you do
this, you will go about 1 mph (1.6 km/h)
slower.
Passing Another Vehicle While Using
Cruise Control
Use the accelerator pedal to increase your speed.
When you take your foot off the pedal, your
vehicle will slow down to the cruise control speed
you set earlier.
Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well your cruise control will work on hills
depends upon your speed, load and the steepness
of the hills. When going up steep hills, you may
have to step on the accelerator pedal to maintain
your speed. When going downhill, you may have to
brake or shift to a lower gear to keep your speed
down. Of course, applying the brake pedal takes
you out of cruise control. Many drivers find this to
be too much trouble and do not use cruise control
on steep hills.
Ending Cruise Control
There are two ways to turn off the cruise control:
• Step lightly on the brake pedal, or press
the clutch pedal, if you have a manual
transaxle.
• Press the ON OFF button on the cruise
control pad.
Erasing Speed Memory
When you turn off the cruise control or the
ignition, your cruise control set speed memory is
erased.
