Cruise Control - Cadillac 2010 DTS Owner's Manual

Cruise Control

With cruise control, a speed of approximately 40 km/h
(25 mph) or more can be maintained without keeping
your foot on the accelerator. Cruise control does not work
at speeds below about 40 km/h (25 mph). A cruise control
light appears in the instrument panel cluster when the
cruise control is on.
When the brakes are applied, the cruise control
shuts off.
WARNING:
{
Cruise control can be dangerous where you
cannot drive safely at a steady speed. So, do not
use the 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.
4-12
If your vehicle is in cruise control when the Traction
Control System (TCS) begins to limit wheel spin,
the cruise control automatically turns off. See Traction
Control System (TCS) on page 5-6. When road
conditions let you safely use it again, the cruise control
can be turned back on.

If you leave your cruise control on when you are
not using cruise, you might hit a button and go
into cruise when you do not want to. You could be
startled and even lose control. Keep the cruise
control switch off until you want to use cruise
control.
