• To increase the speed in small
amounts, move the thumbwheel
up toward RES+ briefly and then
release it. Each time this is done,
the vehicle goes about 1 mph
(1.6 km/h) faster.
• Use the accelerator pedal to
reach the desired speed and
move the thumbwheel towards
−SET. The new desired speed
must be greater than the previous
set speed by a least 5 mph.
Reducing Speed While Using
Cruise Control
If the cruise control system is
already engaged,
• Move the thumbwheel toward
−SET and hold until the desired
lower speed is reached, then
release it.
• To slow down in very small
amounts, move the thumbwheel
toward −SET briefly. Each time
this is done, the vehicle goes
about 1 mph (1.6 km/h) slower.
Passing Another Vehicle While
Using Cruise Control
Use the accelerator pedal to
increase the vehicle’s speed.
When you take your foot off the
pedal, the vehicle will slow down
to the previously set cruise control
speed.
Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well the cruise control works
on hills depends upon the vehicle’s
speed, load, and the steepness of
the hills. When going up steep hills,
you might have to step on the
accelerator pedal to maintain the
vehicle’s speed. When going
downhill, you might have to brake or
shift to a lower gear to maintain the
vehicle’s speed. For some vehicles
the transmission may automatically
downshift when going down hills to
help maintain the vehicle’s speed.
When the brakes are applied the
cruise control shuts off.
Ending Cruise Control
There are three ways to disengage
the cruise control:
• Step lightly on the brake pedal
or clutch; when cruise control
disengages, the indicator light
on the instrument panel cluster
goes out.
• Press E to turn off the cruise
control system.
Erasing Speed Memory
The cruise control set speed
memory is erased when the
cruise control or the ignition is
turned off.
