Accelerating With the Speed Control
Operating
You can use the accelerator pedal to speed up
momentarily. When you take your foot off the
accelerator, the vehicle will return to the set
speed.

Resetting the Speed Control

To reset the speed control to a lower speed, use
one of the following procedures:
COAST — Press and hold the COAST switch.
Release the switch when the vehicle slows
down to the desired speed.
Lightly tap the brake pedal. When the vehicle
attains the desired speed, press the SET
ACCEL switch and release it immediately.
TAP-DOWN — Press and then quickly
release the COAST switch. Each time you
"tap" the switch, the set speed will decrease
by one (1) mph (1.6 km/h). Multiple taps
will cause the set speed to decrease in
increments of one (1) mph (1.6 km/h). For
example, if the current set speed is 60 mph
(96 km/h) five (5) taps of the COAST switch
will decrease the vehicle speed and SET it at
55 mph (88 km/h).
If vehicle speed is reduced below 30 mph
(50 km/h) by any of the above methods, then
you must manually accelerate to a speed over
30 mph (50 km/h) and reset the system.
To reset the speed control to a higher speed,
follow one of these procedures:
ACCEL — Press and hold the SET ACCEL
switch. Release the switch when the vehicle
has accelerated to the desired speed.
