To help maintain maximum control of your vehicle,
do not use conventional cruise control mode when
using dynamic laser cruise control while driving in
heavy or varying traffic, or on slippery (rainy, icy or
snow−covered) or winding roads.
Avoid vehicle speed increasing when driving
downhill. If the vehicle speed is too fast in relation to
the preset speed in the conventional cruise control
mode, cancel the conventional cruise control mode
and then downshift the transmission to use engine
braking to slow down.
STARTING AND DRIVING

cruise control mode using the above operation. To change the
mode, press the "ON−OFF" button to turn the system off and
then press it again to turn it on. Next push the lever in the
"MODE" direction for longer than about 1 second.
