Cruise control is an automatic speed control
system that keeps a set speed. It can be acti-
vated at speeds from

5
speeds below about 25 mph (40 km/h).
CAUTION
 When you do not wish to drive at a set speed,
turn off the cruise control for safety.
 Do not use cruise control when driving con-
ditions will not allow you to stay at the same
speed, such as in heavy traffic or on roads
that are winding, icy, snow-covered, wet,
slippery, on a steep downhill slope.
 On vehicles equipped with manual transaxle,
do not move the gearshift lever to the "N"
(Neutral) position while driving at a set
speed without depressing the clutch pedal.
The engine will run too fast and might be
damaged.
NOTE
 Cruise control may not be able to keep your
speed on uphills or downhills.

want to stay at your set speed.
