momentary tap of the cruise control
switch. Multiple taps will decrease your

tap.

OFF switch was used to cancel cruising
speed (such as applying the brake pedal)
and the system is still activated, the most
recent set speed will automatically resume
when the cruise control switch pulled up.
If vehicle speed is below 30 km/h (19
