Exterior Lamps - Cadillac 2007 Escalade EXT Owner's Manual

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 have to step on the accelerator pedal to
maintain the vehicle's speed. When going downhill,
you may have to brake or shift to a lower gear to
keep the vehicle's speed down. Of course, applying
the brake takes you out of cruise control. Many
drivers find this to be too much trouble and do not
use cruise control on steep hills.
Ending Cruise Control
There are three ways to end cruise control:
•
Step lightly on the brake pedal.
•
Press the cancel button on the steering wheel.
•
Press the On/Off button on the steering wheel.
Erasing Speed Memory
When you turn off the cruise control or the ignition,
the cruise control set speed memory is erased.
