To Turn Off The Cruise Control; To Change The Cruising Speed - Subaru 2005 Baja Owner's Manual

Starting and operating

To turn off the cruise control

There are two ways to turn off the cruise control:
Push the main switch again.
Turn the ignition switch to the "ACC" position (but
only when the vehicle is completely stopped).

To change the cruising speed

To increase the speed (by control lever)
Push the control lever upward in the "ACCEL, RE-
SUME" direction and hold it until the vehicle reaches
the desired speed. Then, release the control lever.
The vehicle speed at that moment will be memorized
and treated as the new set speed.
When the difference between the actual vehicle speed
and the set speed is less than 4 mph (6.8 km/h), the
set speed can be increased 1 mph (1.6 km/h) each
time by pressing the control lever upward in the "AC-
CEL, RESUME" direction quickly.
To increase the speed (by accelerator pedal)
1. Depress the accelerator pedal to accelerate the ve-
hicle to the desired speed.
2. Push the control lever downward in the "SET,
COAST" direction once. Now the desired speed is set
and the vehicle will keep running at that speed without
7-40
depressing the accelerator pedal.
NOTE
If the difference between the actual vehicle speed
when the control lever is pushed downward and
the speed last time you set it is less than 4 mph
(6.8 km/h), the vehicle speed will be lowered by 1
mph (1.6 km/h). This occurs because the cruise
control system unit regards this lever operation as
that intended to decrease the vehicle speed.
To decrease the speed (by control lever)
Push the control lever downward in the "SET, COAST"
direction and hold it until the vehicle reaches the de-
sired speed. Then, release the control lever. The vehi-
cle speed at that moment will be memorized and treat-
ed as the new set speed.
When the difference between the actual vehicle speed
and the set speed is less than 4 mph (6.8 km/h), the
set speed can be lowered 1 mph (1.6 km/h) each time
by pressing the control lever downward in the "SET,
COAST" direction quickly.
To decrease the speed (by brake pedal)
1. Depress the brake pedal to release cruise control
temporarily.
2. When the speed decreases to the desired speed,
