Increasing Speed While Cruise
Control is at a Set Speed
If the cruise control system is
already activated:
Move the control up toward
+RES and hold until the desired
speed is reached, then
release it.
To increase vehicle speed in
small increments, move the
control up toward +RES briefly
and then release it. Each time
this is done, the vehicle goes
about 1.6 km/h (1 mph) faster.
Reducing Speed While Cruise

If the cruise control system is
already activated:
Move the control toward SET
and hold until the desired lower
speed is reached, then
release it.
To decrease the vehicle speed in
small increments, move the
control toward SET briefly.
Each time this is done, the
vehicle goes about 1.6 km/h
(1 mph) slower.

increase the vehicle speed. When
you take your foot off the pedal, the

override cruise control, briefly
pressing the SET button will result
in cruise control set to the current
vehicle speed.
Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well the cruise control will work
on hills depends upon the vehicle
speed, load, and the steepness of
the hills. When going up steep hills,
you might have to step on the
accelerator pedal to maintain the
