OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
To Decrease Speed
• When the Electronic Speed Control is set, you can decrease speed by pushing the
SET - button.
• The speed decrement shown is dependant on the speed of U.S. (mph) or Metric
(km/h) units:
U.S. Speed (mph)
• Pressing the SET - button once will result in a 1 mph decrease in set speed. Each
subsequent tap of the button results in a decrease of 1 mph.
• If the button is continually pressed, the set speed will continue to decrease until the
button is released, then the new set speed will be established.
Metric Speed (km/h)
• Pressing the SET - button once will result in a 2 km/h decrease in set speed. Each
subsequent tap of the button results in a decrease of 2 km/h.
• If the button is continually pressed, the set speed will continue to decrease until the
button is released, then the new set speed will be established.
Resume
• To resume a previously selected set speed in memory, push the RES + button and
release.
Cancel
• Push the CANCEL button, apply the brakes, or depress the clutch to cancel the set
speed and maintain the set speed memory.
• Push the ON/OFF button to turn the system off and erase the set speed memory.
• Leaving the Electronic Speed Control system on when not in use is dangerous. You
could accidentally set the system or cause it to go faster than you want. You could
lose control and have a collision. Always leave the Electronic Speed Control system
off when you are not using it.
• Electronic Speed Control can be dangerous where the system cannot maintain a
constant speed. Your vehicle could go too fast for the conditions, and you could
lose control. A collision could be the result. Do not use Electronic Speed Control
in heavy traffic or on roads that are winding, icy, snow-covered or slippery.
