SETTING THE CRUISING SPEED
The transmission must be in "D" or "4"
(5−speed models) or "3" (4−speed models)
before you set the cruising speed.
Bring your vehicle to the desired speed,
push the lever down in the "SET/COAST"
direction and release it. This sets the ve-
hicle at that speed.
If the speed is not satisfactory, tap the
lever up for a faster speed, or tap it down
for a lower speed. Each tap changes the
set speed by 1.6 km/h (1.0 mph). You can
now take your foot off the accelerator
pedal.
If you need acceleration—for example,
when passing—depress the accelerator
pedal enough for the vehicle to exceed
the set speed. When you release it, the
vehicle will return to the speed set prior
to the acceleration.
CANCELING THE CRUISE CONTROL
The cruise control may be temporarily
canceled by the driver or by the system
itself under certain circumstances. Tempo-
rary cancellation allows the set cruising
speed to remain in memory.
The cruise control can be temporarily can-
celed by doing the following:
Pulling the lever in the "CANCEL" di-
D
rection and releasing it
Depressing the brake pedal
D
Under certain circumstances, the cruise
control is temporarily canceled. When ve-
hicle speed falls below 40 km/h (25 mph).
When vehicle speed drops 16 km/h (10
mph) below the set speed, the cruise con-
trol is canceled and the set speed is
erased from memory.
The "CRUISE" indicator light remains on
to indicate that the system is still in op-
eration.
To turn the cruise control off, press the
"ON−OFF" button. Make
"CRUISE" indicator light is off.
If the cruise control automatically cancels
out other than for the above cases, have
your vehicle checked by your Toyota deal-
er at the earliest opportunity.
RESUMING THE CRUISE CONTROL
If the cruise control is temporarily can-
celed, the cruising speed can be resumed
by pushing the lever up in the "RES/ACC"
direction.
Vehicle speed must be above 40 km/h (25
mph).
RESETTING TO A FASTER SPEED
Push the lever up in the "RES/ACC" direc-
tion and hold it. Release the lever when
the desired speed is attained. While the
lever is held up, the vehicle will gradually
gain speed.
However, a faster way to reset is to ac-
celerate the vehicle and then push the
lever down in the "SET/COAST" direction.
