If the Electric Power Steering warn-
ing icon is displayed and the "SER-
VICE POWER STEERING" or the
"POWER STEERING ASSIST OFF
– SERVICE SYSTEM" message is
displayed within the instrument cluster display,
this indicates the vehicle needs to be taken to
the dealer for service. Refer to "Warning Lights
And Messages" in "Getting To Know Your Instru-
ment Panel" for further information.
NOTE:
• Even if the power steering assistance is no
longer operational, it is still possible to steer
the vehicle. Under these conditions there will
be a substantial increase in steering effort,
especially at low speeds and during parking
maneuvers.
• If the condition persists, see your authorized
dealer for service.
If the Steering icon is displayed and the
"POWER STEERING SYSTEM OVER TEMP"
message is displayed on the instrument cluster
screen, they indicate that extreme steering ma-
neuvers may have occurred which caused an
over temperature condition in the power steer-
ing system. Once driving conditions are safe,
pull over and let the vehicle idle for a few
moments until the icon and message turn off.
SPEED CONTROL — IF
EQUIPPED
When engaged, the Speed Control takes over
accelerator operations at speeds greater than
25 mph (40 km/h).
The Speed Control buttons are located on the
right side of the steering wheel.
Speed Control Buttons
1 — On/Off
4 — SET (-)/Decel
2 — SET (+)/Accel
5 — CANC/Cancel
3 — RES/Resume
NOTE:
In order to ensure proper operation, the Speed
Control System has been designed to shut
down if multiple Speed Control functions are
operated at the same time. If this occurs, the
Speed Control System can be reactivated by
pushing the Speed Control on/off button and
resetting the desired vehicle set speed.

To Activate

Push the on/off button to activate the Speed
Control. "CRUISE CONTROL READY" will ap-
pear in the instrument cluster display to indicate
the Speed Control is on. To turn the system off,
push the on/off button a second time. "CRUISE
CONTROL OFF" will appear in the instrument
cluster display to indicate the Speed Control is
off. The system should be turned off when not in
use.
WARNING!
Leaving the Speed Control system on when
not in use is dangerous. You could acciden-
tally set the system or cause it to go faster
than you want. You could lose control and
have an accident. Always leave the system
OFF when you are not using it.

To Set A Desired Speed

Turn the Speed Control on. When the vehicle
has reached the desired speed, push the SET
(+) or SET (-) button and release. Release the
accelerator and the vehicle will operate at the
selected speed. Once a speed has been set, a
message "CRUISE CONTROL SET TO MPH
(km/h)" will appear indicating what speed was
set. A cruise indicator lamp, along with set
speed will also appear and stay on in the
instrument cluster when the speed is set.
