Cruise Control
Cruise control may not hold the set
speed when you are going up and
down hills. If your speed increases
going down a hill, use the brakes to
slow down. This cancels cruise
control. On models with adaptive
cruise control (ACC), this also
causes the cruise control icon on the
multi-information display to go off
and the cruise mode icon to come on.
To resume the set speed, press the
RES/ACCEL button. The CRUISE
CONTROL icon on the multi-
information display will come back
on.
When climbing a steep hill, the
automatic transmission may
downshift to hold the set speed.

You can decrease the set cruising
speed in any of these ways:
Press and hold the SET/DECEL
button. Release the button when
you reach the desired speed.
To slow down in very small

your vehicle will slow down about
1 mph (1.6 km/h).
Tap the brake pedal lightly with
your foot. The CRUISE
CONTROL indicator or ACC
indicator on the instrument panel
and the CRUISE CONTROL icon
on the multi-information display
will go out. When the vehicle
slows to the desired speed, press
the SET/DECEL button.
