Cruise Control in Sport (S) and Manual
Paddle Shift Gear Selection
When your vehicle is in Sport (S) and the manual
paddle shift controls are not being used, cruise control
will operate in the same manner as Drive (D).
When your vehicle is in Sport (S) and the manual
paddle shift controls are being used, cruise control will
operate as follows:
•
If cruise control is active and a gear is selected
with the manual paddle shift controls, the vehicle
will maintain vehicle speed in the driver selected
gear and will not automatically up-shift or down-shift
the transmission while the driver's gear selection
is active.
•
If driving in hilly terrain, cruise control may not be
able to maintain vehicle speed if an up-shift or
down-shift is not selected by the driver. While
driving on hilly terrain and cruise control is active
with a manual paddle shift gear selection, the driver
must select the proper gear for the terrain or
select Drive (D) on the gear range selector for full
automatic transmission operation.

Ending Cruise Control
To end a cruise control session, step lightly on
the brake pedal. If your vehicle has a manual
transmission, lightly tapping the clutch will also
end a cruise control session.
Stepping on the brake or clutch pedal will end the
current cruise control session only. Move the cruise
control switch to off to turn the system completely off.
When cruise control is disengaged, the CRUISE
DISENGAGED message will display on the Driver
Information Center (DIC). See DIC Warnings and
Messages on page 3-53.
Erasing Speed Memory
When you turn off the cruise control or the ignition, your
cruise control set speed memory is erased.
