STARTING AND DRIVING
3
Resetting to a faster speed
Press the control lever upward in the "+ RES" direction and
hold it. The displayed speed will increase in increments of 5
mph (for the U.S.A.) or 5 km/h (for Canada). Release the lever
when the desired speed is attained. The vehicle will gradually
increase to the displayed speed.
Depressing the accelerator pedal and pressing the control
lever downward in the "– SET" direction will not reset to a faster
speed. At this time the set speed falls by 5 mph (for the U.S.A.)
or 5 km/h (for Canada).
CAUTION
When the vehicle−to−vehicle distance control is on (on
follow−up cruising), your cruising speed is regulated in
proportion to the speed of the vehicle ahead, so
increasing the preset vehicle speed using the control
lever does not accelerate the vehicle. However, if the
vehicle ahead leaves the lane, your cruising speed will
increase up to the preset speed because the preset
speed has been set higher using the control lever.
Confirm the setting on the multi−information display.

Resetting to a slower speed
Press the control lever downward in the "– SET" direction and
hold it. The displayed speed will decrease in increments of 5
mph (for the U.S.A.) or 5 km/h (for Canada). Release the lever
when the desired speed is attained. The vehicle will gradually
decrease to the displayed speed.
A quicker way to reset the preset speed is to depress the brake
pedal and then press the control lever downward in the "– SET"
direction.
If the control lever is released when the vehicle speed exceeds
the upper limit of the preset speed traveling downhill while you
are pressing the control lever downward, the system will
memorize the upper limit of the preset speed as a preset
speed.
Even if you downshift the transmission from "D" or "6" (sixth
range) to "5" (fifth range), or from "D" or "5" (fifth range) to "4"
(fourth range) in the vehicle−to−vehicle distance control mode,
engine braking will not be enabled because this mode is not
cancelled. To decrease the vehicle speed, reset to a slower
speed with the cruise control lever or depress the brake pedal.
If you use the brake pedal, cruise control is cancelled.
