Setting operation

" Each function is described below.
1 Setting the cruising speed
The transmission must be in "D" or "4" before you set the
cruising speed.
Bring the vehicle to the desired speed, push the control lever
downward in the " SET" direction and release it. This sets the
vehicle at that speed. Now you may take your foot off the
accelerator pedal. If you need acceleration — for example,
when passing — depress the accelerator pedal enough for the
vehicle to exceed the set speed. When you release the
accelerator pedal, the vehicle will return to the speed set prior
to the acceleration.
