Cruise Control - Cadillac 2007 XLR Owner's Manual

Cruise Control

Your vehicle has cruise control.
R
(On): This position turns the system on.
+ (Resume/Accelerate): This position makes the
vehicle accelerate or resume to a previously
set speed.
T
(Set): Press this button at the end of the
lever to set the speed.
With cruise control, you can maintain a speed of
about 25 mph (40 km/h) or more without
keeping your foot on the accelerator. This can
really help on long trips. Cruise control does not
work at speeds below about 25 mph (40 km/h).
(Off): This position
9
turns the system off.
Cruise control will not work if the parking brake is
set, or if the master cylinder brake fluid level is low.
CAUTION:
{
Cruise control can be dangerous where
you cannot drive safely at a steady speed.
So, do not use your cruise control on
winding roads or in heavy traffic.
Cruise control can be dangerous on
slippery roads. On such roads, fast
changes in tire traction can cause
excessive wheel slip, and you could lose
control. Do not use cruise control on
slippery roads.
If your vehicle has the traction control system and
it begins to limit wheel spin while cruise control
is on, the cruise control will automatically
disengage. See Traction Control System (TCS) on
page 329. When road conditions allow you to
safely use it again, you may turn cruise control
back on.
