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 up steep hills, you may want to step on the
accelerator pedal to maintain your speed. 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.
Ending Cruise Control
There are four ways to turn off the cruise control:
•
Step lightly on the brake pedal,
•
move the cruise control switch to off, or
•
shift the transmission to NEUTRAL (N).
•
If your vehicle has the Stabilitrak
cruise control will turn off if road conditions cause
®
Stabilitrak to activate.
•
If the accelerator pedal is held for 60 seconds or
longer, cruise control will turn off.
Erasing Speed Memory
When you turn off the cruise control or the ignition,
your cruise control set speed memory is erased.
