Using engine braking instead of
applying the brakes
Cruise Control regulates speed by lightly applying
the brakes. On downgrades, it can sometimes be
desirable to roll a bit faster and let speed be
reduced instead by engine braking alone. The
driver can temporarily disengage the Cruise Con-
trol braking function.
To disengage CC:
(1)
–
Press the accelerator pedal about halfway
down and then release it.
> Cruise Control will automatically disen-
gage the automatic brake function and
speed will only be reduced using the
engine braking function.
How drive mode affects cruise control
The way the cruise control maintains the vehicle's
speed can vary depending on the selected drive
