speed. To do so, push the lever up and release (RES/
ACCEL), and then remove your foot from the accelerator
pedal.

To Vary the Speed Setting:

When the speed control is set, you can increase speed by
pushing the lever up and holding ("RES/ACCEL").
When the lever is released, a new set speed will be
established.
Pushing the lever up and releasing ("RES/ACCEL") once
will result in a 1 mph (1.6 km/h) speed increase. Each
time the lever is pushed up and released, speed increases
so that pushing the lever up and releasing three times
will increase speed by 3 mph (4.8 km/h), etc.
To decrease speed while speed control is set, push the
lever down and hold ("SET/DECEL"). Release the lever
when the desired speed is reached, and a new set speed
will be established.
Pushing down and releasing the lever ("SET/DECEL")
once will result in a 1 mph (1.6 km/h) speed decrease.
Each time the lever is pushed down and released, speed
decreases.

To Accelerate For Passing:

Depress the accelerator as you would normally. When the
pedal is released, the vehicle will return to the set speed.
NOTE: The speed control system maintains speed up
and down hills. A slight speed change on moderate hills
is normal.
Four speed automatic transmissions will experience a
downshift to 3rd gear while climbing uphill or descend-
ing downhill. This downshift to 3rd gear is necessary to
maintain vehicle set speed.
On steep hills, a greater speed loss or gain may occur so
it may be preferable to drive without speed control.
