Temporarily Canceling
The System
Warning!
Leaving the Speed Control system on
when not in use is dangerous. You could
accidentally set the system or cause it to
go faster than you want. You could lose
control and have an accident. Always leave
the system OFF when you are not using it.
To temporarily cancel the system, use
one of these methods:
Slightly press the brake pedal.
Press the clutch pedal (if equipped
with a manual transmission).
Push OFF/CAN button.
If the RES (+) button is pushed when
the vehicle speed is 25 mph (40 km/h)
or higher, the system reverts to the
previously set speed.

Note:
If any of the following conditions occur,
the Speed Control system is temporarily
canceled:
The parking brake is applied.
Automatic Transmission: the
gear selector is in the PARK or
NEUTRAL position.
Manual Transmission: the gear
selector is in the NEUTRAL position.
Automatic Transmission: the
Speed Control cannot be canceled
while driving in manual mode (gear
selector shifted from D to M position).
Therefore, engine braking will not be
applied even if the transmission is
shifted down to a lower gear. If
deceleration is required, lower the set
speed or press the brake pedal.
When the Speed Control system is
temporarily canceled, the speed cannot
be reset.
REAR PARK ASSIST
— IF EQUIPPED
Rear Park Assist
Warning!
Do not rely completely on the parking
sensor system and be sure to confirm the
safety around your vehicle visually when
driving. This system can assist the driver in
operating the vehicle in the forward and
backward directions while parking. The
detection ranges of the sensors are limited,
therefore, driving the vehicle while relying
only on the system may cause an accident.
Always confirm the safety around your
vehicle visually when driving.
Parking and other potentially dangerous
maneuvers are, however, always the
driver's responsibility. When performing
these operations, always make sure that
there are no other people (especially
children) or animals on the route you want
to drive into. The parking sensors are an
aid for the driver, but the driver must never
allow their attention to lapse during
potentially dangerous maneuvers, even
those executed at low speeds.
The Rear Park Assist System uses four
ultrasonic sensors (two rear sensors
and two rear corner sensors) to detect
obstructions around the vehicle while
