The " " indicator light on the combina-
tion meter turns off when the cruise control
is canceled.
To resume the cruise control after it has
been temporarily canceled and with vehi-
cle speed of approximately 20 mph (32
km/h) or more, push the "RES/ACC"
button to return to the original cruising
speed automatically.
The " " indicator light on the combina-
tion meter will automatically illuminate at
this time.
& To turn off the cruise control
There are two ways to turn off the cruise
control:
. Push the "CRUISE" main switch button
again.
. Turn the ignition switch to the "Acc" or
"LOCK" position (but only when the
vehicle is completely stopped).
& To change the cruising speed
! To increase the speed (by button)
Push the "RES/ACC" button and hold it
until the vehicle reaches the desired
speed. Then, release the button. The
vehicle speed at that moment will be
memorized and treated as the new set
speed.
When the difference between the actual
vehicle speed and the set speed is less
than 4 mph (6.8 km/h), the set speed can
be increased 1 mph (1.6 km/h) each time
by pressing the "RES/ACC" button quickly.
! To increase the speed (by accel-
erator pedal)
1. Depress the accelerator pedal to
accelerate the vehicle to the desired
speed.
2. Push the "SET/COAST" button once.
Now the desired speed is set and the
vehicle will keep running at that speed
without depressing the accelerator pedal.
NOTE
If the difference between the actual
vehicle speed when the button is
pushed and the speed last time you
set is less than 4 mph (6.8 km/h), the
vehicle speed will be lowered by 1 mph
(1.6 km/h). This occurs because the
cruise control system unit regards this
operation as that intended to decrease
the vehicle speed.
