Cruise Control - Cadillac ATS 2017 Owner's Manual

250 DRIVING AND OPERATING

Cruise Control

With cruise control, a speed of about
40 km/h (25 mph) or more can be
maintained without keeping your foot
on the accelerator. Cruise control does
not work at speeds below about
40 km/h (25 mph).
Warning
Cruise control can be dangerous
where you cannot drive safely at a
steady speed. Do not use cruise
control on winding roads or in
heavy traffic.
Cruise control can be dangerous on
slippery roads. On such roads, fast
changes in tire traction can cause
excessive wheel slip, and you could
lose control. Do not use cruise
control on slippery roads.
If equipped with a manual
transmission ATS 2.0L L4 engine
(LTG), the cruise control will remain
active when the gears are shifted. The
cruise is deactivated if the clutch is
pressed for several seconds. In an
ATS-V Series vehicle, cruise control is
cancelled immediately with the
activation of the clutch pedal.
®
If the StabiliTrak system begins to
limit wheel spin while using cruise
control, the cruise control
automatically disengages. See Traction
Control/Electronic Stability Control
0 241. If a collision alert occurs when
cruise control is activated, cruise
control is disengaged. See Forward
Collision Alert (FCA) System 0 264.
When road conditions allow you to
safely use it again, cruise control can
be turned back on.
If the brakes are applied, cruise
control disengages.
J

+RES : If there is a set speed in
memory, press the control up briefly
to resume that speed or hold to
