To Resume a Set Speed
Suppose you set your cruise control at a desired speed
and then you apply the brake. This, of course, shuts off
the cruise control. But you don't need to reset it.
Once you're going about
25 mph (40 km/h) or more,
you can move the cruise
control switch from ON to
WA for about half a second.
You'll go right back up to your chosen speed and stay
there.
Remember, if you hold the switch at WA longer than
half a second, the vehicle will keep going faster until
you release the switch or apply the brake. You could be
startled and even lose control. So unless you want to go
faster, don't hold the switch at R/A.
To Increase Speed While Using Cruise
Control
There are two ways to go
IO
a higher speed. Here's the
first:
Use the accelerator pedal to get to the higher speed.
Push the button at the end of the lever, then release
the button and the accelerator pedal. You'll now
cruise at the higher speed.
Here's the second way to go to a higher speed:
Move the cruise switch from ON to R/A. Hold it
there until you get up to the speed you want, and
then release the switch.
To increase your speed in very small amounts, move
the switch to WA for less than half a second and then
release it. Each time you do this, your vehicle will go
about 1 mph (1.6 km/h) faster.
The accelerate feature will only work after you have set
the cruise control speed by pushing the SET button.
