There are two ways to reduce your speed
while using cruise control:
• Press the SET/- button until you reach the
lower speed you want, then release it.
• To slow down in very small amounts, tap
the SET/- button. Each time you do this,
you will go about 2 km/h (1.2 mph) slower.

speed. When you take your foot off the pedal,
your vehicle will slow down to the cruise con-
trol speed you set earlier.

How well your cruise control will work on hills
depends upon your speed, load and the steep-
ness of the hills. When going up a steep hill,
you may have to step on the accelerator pedal
to maintain your speed. When going down-
hill, you may have to brake or shift to a lower
gear to keep your speed down. Of course,
applying the brake pedal takes you out of
cruise control. Many drivers find this to be too
much trouble and don't use cruise control on
steep hills.

The key number is stamped on the key num-
ber plate. For vehicle security, keep the key
number plate in a safe place, not in the ve-
hicle. You should also record the key number
in a safe place, not in the vehicle.
This deters unauthorised persons from
obtaining a duplicate key.
