Setting Cruise Control
CAUTION:
If you leave your cruise control switch on when
you're not using cruise, you might hit a button
and go into cruise when you don't want to. You
could be startled and even lose control. Keep the
cruise control switch off until you want to use
cruise control.
1. Move the cruise control switch to ON.
2. Get up to the speed you want.
3. Push in the SET button at the end of the lever and
release it.
4. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal.

Resuming a Set Speed
Suppose you set your cruise control at a desired speed
and then you apply the brake. This shuts off the cruise
control, but you don't need to reset it when you want to
resume your previous speed.
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) briefly. You'll go right back
up to your chosen speed and stay there.
Increasing Speed While Using Cruise Control
There are two ways to go to a higher speed:
D
Use the accelerator pedal to get to the higher speed.
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.
D
Move the cruise switch from ON to R/A. Hold it
there until you get up to the speed you want, then
release the switch. (To increase your speed in very
small amounts, move the switch to R/A. Each time
you do this, your vehicle will go about 1 mph
(1.6 km/h) faster.)
The accelerate feature will only work after you set the
cruise control speed by pushing the SET button.
