To Accelerate For Passing; Adaptive Cruise Control (Acc) - If Equipped - Jeep Grand Cherokee 2014 Owner's Manual

188 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE
While the Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control is set, the
set speed can be decreased by pressing and holding the
SET - button. If the button is continually pressed, the set
speed will continue to decrease in 5 mph (10 km/h)
increments until the button is released. The decrease in
set speed is reflected in the EVIC display.

To Accelerate For Passing

Press the accelerator as you would normally. When the
pedal is released, the vehicle will return to the set speed.
Using Electronic Speed Control On Hills
The transmission may downshift on hills to maintain the
vehicle set speed.
NOTE: The Electronic Speed Control system maintains
speed up and down hills. A slight speed change on
moderate hills is normal.
On steep hills, a greater speed loss or gain may occur so
it may be preferable to drive without Electronic Speed
Control.
WARNING!
Electronic Speed Control can be dangerous where the
system cannot maintain a constant speed. Your ve-
hicle could go too fast for the conditions, and you
could lose control and have an accident. Do not use
Electronic Speed Control in heavy traffic or on roads
that are winding, icy, snow-covered or slippery.
ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (ACC) — IF
EQUIPPED
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) increases the driving
convenience provided by cruise control while traveling
on highways and major roadways. However, it is not a
safety system and not designed to prevent collisions.
