Resuming a Set Speed

Suppose you set your cruise control at a desired
speed and then you apply the brake. This disengages
the cruise control. To return to your previously set
speed, you do not need to go through the set process
again. Once you are going about 25 mph (40 km/h)
or more, you can press the RES+ button briefly.
This will take you back up to your previously chosen
speed and stay there.
