Cruise Control in Sport (S) and Manual
Paddle Shift Gear Selection
When your vehicle is in Sport (S) and the manual
paddle shift controls are not being used, cruise
control operates in the same manner as Drive (D).
When your vehicle is in Sport (S) and the
manual paddle shift controls are being used,
cruise control operates as follows:
•
If cruise control is active and a gear is
selected with the manual paddle shift controls,
the vehicle maintains vehicle speed in the
driver selected gear and will not automatically
up-shift or down-shift the transmission
while the driver's gear selection is active.
•
If driving in hilly terrain, cruise control may
not be able to maintain vehicle speed if an
up-shift or down-shift is not selected by
the driver. While driving on hilly terrain and
cruise control is active with a manual paddle
shift gear selection, the driver must select
the proper gear for the terrain or select Drive
(D) on the gear range selector for full
automatic transmission operation.
Ending Cruise Control
To end a cruise control session, step lightly on
the brake pedal. If your vehicle has a manual
transmission, lightly tapping the clutch will also end
a cruise control session.
Move the cruise control switch to off to turn the
system completely off.
When cruise control is disengaged, the CRUISE
DISENGAGED message displays on the Driver
Information Center (DIC). See DIC Warnings and
Messages on page 214.
Erasing Speed Memory
When you turn off the cruise control or the
ignition, the cruise control set speed memory
is erased.
