shuts off the cruise control. But you
don't need to reset it. Once you're
going about 40 km/h (25 mph) or
more, you can tap the RES/+
button.
You'll go right back up to your
chosen speed and stay there.
If you hold the RES/+ button longer,
the vehicle will keep going faster
until you release the button, apply
the brake pedal or press the
button. So unless you want to go
faster, do not hold the RES/+
button.
Increasing speed while using
cruse control
There are two ways to go to a
higher speed:
Use the accelerator pedal to get
to a higher speed. Press the
SET/- button, then release the
button and the accelerator pedal.
You will now cruise at the higher
speed.
Press the RES/+ button. Hold it
there until you get up to the
speed you want, and then
release the button. To increase
your speed in very small
amounts, tap the RES/+ button
and then release it. Each time
you do this, your vehicle will go
about 2 km/h (1.2 mph) faster.
The accelerate feature will only
work after you turn on the cruise
control by pressing the SET/-
button.
Reducing speed while using
cruise control
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.
Driving and Operating
Passing another vehicle while
using cruise control
Use the accelerator pedal to
increase your speed. When you
take your foot off the pedal, your
vehicle will slow down to the cruise
control speed you set earlier.
Using cruise control on hills
How well your cruise control will
work on hills depends upon your
speed, load and the steepness of
the hills. When going up a steep hill,
you may have to step on the
accelerator pedal to maintain your
speed. When going downhill, 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.
