SETTING AT A DESIRED SPEED

The transmission must be in "D" before
you set the cruise control speed.
Bring your vehicle to the desired speed,
push the lever down in the "- SET" direc-
tion and release it. This sets the vehicle
at that speed. If the speed is not satisfac-
tory, tap the lever up for a faster speed,
or tap it down for a slower speed. Each
tap changes the set speed by 1.6 km/h
(1.0 mph). You can now take your foot off
the accelerator pedal.
If you need acceleration—for example,
when passing—depress the
pedal enough for the vehicle to exceed
the set speed. When you release it, the
vehicle will return to the speed set prior
to the acceleration.

CANCELLING THE PRESET SPEED

You can cancel the preset speed by:
a. Pulling the lever in the
direction and releasing it.
b. Depressing the brake pedal.
c. Pushing the "ON- OFF" switch.
If the vehicle speed falls below about 40
km/h (25 mph), the preset speed will auto-
matically cancel out.
If the vehicle speed drops 16 km/h (10
mph) below the preset speed, the preset
speed will also automatically cancel out.
If the preset speed automatically cancels
out other than for the above cases, have
your vehicle checked by your Toyota deal-
er at the earliest opportunity.
