To Resume a Set Speed
Suppose you set your cruise control at a desired speed
and then you apply the brake. This, of course, shuts off
the cruise control. But you don't need to reset it.
Once you're going about
25 mph (40 km/h) or more,
you can move the cruise
control switch from ON to
R/A (Resume/Accelerate)
for about half a second.
You'll go right back up to
your chosen speed and stay
there.
If you hold the switch at WA longer than half a second,
the vehicle will keep going faster until you release the
switch or apply the brake. You could be startled and
even lose control. So unless you want to go faster, don't
hold the switch at R/A.
To Increase Speed While Using Cruise
Control
There are two ways to go to a higher speed. Here's the
first:
1. Use the accelerator pedal to get to the higher speed.
2. Push the SET button at the end of the lever, then
release the button and the accelerator pedal. You'll
now cruise at the higher speed.
Here's the second way to go to a higher speed:
I . Move the cruise switch from ON to WA. Hold it
there until you get up to the speed you want, and
then release the switch.
2. To increase your speed in very small amounts,
move
the switch to WA for less than half a second and then
release it. Each time you do this, your vehicle will go
1 mph (1.6 km/h) faster. If you tap R/A five times,
you will go
5 mph faster.
The accelerate feature will only work after you have
set the cruise control speed by pushing the SET
button.
