The brake pedal is not pressed.
•
The vehicle speed is below about 5 mph (8 km/h)

not be moving and the accelerator must not be
pressed for vehicles with gasoline engines.

If the vehicle has manual transmission the clutch
pedal is not pressed or, if the vehicle has the
automatic transmission it is in NEUTRAL (N) or

the instrument panel
switchbank.
The manual high idle feature is activated by pressing
the switch on the instrument panel. When the switch is
pressed again, or any of the previous conditions are
not met, manual high idle will be deactivated.
The manual high idle has been preset at the factory.
Your dealer may change the setting to fit your needs.
