Passing Another Vehicle While Using Cruise Control
Use the accelerator pedal to increase your speed. When
you take your foot off the pedal, your vehicle will slow
down to the cruise control speed you set earlier.
Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well your cruise control will work on hills depends
upon your speed, load and the steepness of the hills.
When going downhill, you may have to brake or shift to
a lower gear to keep your speed down. Of course,
applying the brake takes you out of cruise control. Many
drivers find this to be too much trouble and don't use
cruise control on steep hills.
Getting Out of Cruise Control
There are two ways to turn off the cruise control:
0
Step lightly on the brake pedal or push the clutch
pedal, if you have a manual transmission vehicle; or
0
Move the cruise switch to OFF.
The DIC will display the message "CRUISE
DISENGAGED."
Erasing Speed Memory
When you turn off the cruise control or the ignition,
your cruise control set speed memory is erased.

Daytime Running Lamps
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) can make it easier for
others to see the front of your vehicle during the day.
DRL can be helpful in many different driving
conditions, but they can be especially helpful in the
short periods after dawn and before sunset.
The DRL system will make your front turn signal lamps
come on when:
0
the ignition is on,
the headlamp switch is off and
0
the parking brake is released.
When the DRL are on, only your front turn signal lamps
will be on. The taillamps, sidemarker and other lamps
will not be on.
