The drivers preferred units can be selected through the radio settings if equipped.
Refer to "Uconnect Settings" in "Understanding Your Instrument Panel" on the DVD
for more information. The speed increment shown is dependant on the chosen speed
unit of U.S. (mph) or Metric (km/h):
U.S. Speed (mph)
• Tapping the Speed Control lever down (-) once will result in a 1 mph decrease in
set speed. Each subsequent tap of the lever results in a decrease of 1 mph.
• If the lever is continually held down, the set speed will continue to decrease until
the lever is released, then the new set speed will be established.
Metric Speed (km/h)
• Tapping the Speed Control lever down (-) once will result in a 1 km/h decrease in
set speed. Each subsequent tap of the lever results in a decrease of 1 km/h.
• If the lever is continually held down, the set speed will continue to decrease until
the lever is released, then the new set speed will be established.

To Accelerate For Passing

Press the accelerator as you would normally. When the pedal is released, the vehicle
will return to the set speed.
Using Electronic Speed Control On Hills
The transmission may downshift on hills to maintain the vehicle set speed.
NOTE:
The Electronic Speed Control system maintains speed up and down hills. A slight
speed change on moderate hills is normal.
On steep hills, a greater speed loss or gain may occur so it may be preferable to drive
without Electronic Speed Control.
Electronic Speed Control can be dangerous where the system cannot maintain a
constant speed. Your vehicle could go too fast for the conditions, and you could
lose control and have an accident. Do not use Electronic Speed Control in heavy
traffic or on roads that are winding, icy, snow-covered or slippery.
