With cruise control, the vehicle can maintain a
speed of about 25 mph (40 km/h) or more without
keeping your foot on the accelerator. This can
really help on long trips. Cruise control does not
work at speeds below about 25 mph (40 km/h).
The cruise control
set button is located
at the end of the
multifunction lever.
Cruise control will not work if the parking brake is
set, or if the master cylinder brake fluid level is low.
If the brakes are applied, the cruise control will
shut off.
CAUTION:
{
Cruise control can be dangerous where
you cannot drive safely at a steady speed.
So, do not use your cruise control on
winding roads or in heavy traffic.
Cruise control can be dangerous on
slippery roads. On such roads, fast
changes in tire traction can cause
excessive wheel slip, and you could lose
control. Do not use cruise control on
slippery roads.
If your vehicle has the Traction Control
System (TCS) and it begins to limit wheel spin
while the cruise control is on, the cruise control will
automatically disengage. See Traction Control
System (TCS) on page 249. When road conditions
allow you to safely use it again, you can turn
cruise control back on.
