Resuming
a
Set Speed
Setting the cruise control at
a desired speed and then
applying the brake will end
the cruise function. Once
you're going about 25 mph
( 4 0
km/h)
or
more, you can
move the cruise control
I
switch from ON to R/A
(Resume/Accelerate) for
about half a second to reset.
This returns you to your
desired preset speed.
I
Remember, if you hold the switch at R/A longer than
half a second, the vehicle will accelerate 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 RJA.

ways
to increase your speed. Here's
the first:
1. Use
the
accelerator pedal to go to a higher speed.
2. Push the button at the end of the lever and then
release the button and the accelerator pedal. You'll
now cruise at the higher speed.
Here's the second way to increase speed:

there until you reach a desired speed and then release
the switch.

vehicle will go about 1 mph (1.6
km/h)
faster.

accelerate feature will only work after you'have
