Cruise
Control
With cruise control, you can maintain a speed of about
25
mph
(40
km/h) or more without keeping your foot
on the accelerator. This can really help on long
trips. Cruise control does not work at speeds below
about
25
mph
(40
km/h).
When you apply your brakes, the cruise control
shuts
off.

When
road conditions allow you to safely use
it
again, you may
turn the cruise control back on.
Setting Cruise Control
Cruise control can be dangerous where
you can’t drive safely at a steady speed.
So,
don’t use your cruise control on
winding roads or in heavy traffic.
Cruise control can be dangerous on
slippery roads. On such roads, fast
changes in tire traction can cause
needless wheel spinning, and you could
lose control. Don’t use cruise control on
slippery roads.
If
your vehicle
is
in cruise control when the traction
control system (if equipped), begins to limit wheel spin,
the cruise control will automatically disengage. See
If you leave your cruise control on when you’re
not using cruise, you might hit a button and go
into cruise when you don’t want to. You could
be startled and even lose control. Keep the
cruise control switch
off
until you want to use
cruise control.
