Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well the cruise control works on hills depends upon
the vehicles speed, load and the steepness of the hills.
When going up steep hills, you may want 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. When the brake or clutch is
applied the cruise control will shut off.
For vehicles with the exhaust brake option and the
exhaust brake is turned on, the exhaust brake may come
on and try to slow down the vehicle to the set cruise
control speed if the vehicle has accelerated past the set
cruise control speed while going downhill.

control:
•
Step lightly on the brake pedal (manual and
automatic transmissions).
•
Press the clutch pedal to the floor (manual
transmissions).
•
Move the cruise switch to
•

Erasing Speed Memory

the ignition is turned off.
