Setting Cruise Control
I
A
CAUTION:
If
you leave your cruise control switch 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 it.
1.
Move the cruise control switch to
ON.
2.
Accelerate to the speed
you
want.
3.
Press the SET CRUISE button at the end of the lever
and release
it.
The CRUISE ENGAGED message
will display
on
the Driver Information Center (DIC).
4.
Remove your
foot
from the accelerator pedal.
Resuming a Set Speed
Setting the cruise control at a desired speed and then
applying
the
brake will end the cruise function.
Once you’re going about
25
mph
(40
Mh)
or
more,
you
can move the cruise control switch from
ON
to
RIA (Resume/Accelerate) for about half a second
to
reset. This returns
you
to your desired preset speed.
Also note that the Driver Information Center (DIC)
will display the CRUISE ENGAGED message again.
Remember, if you hold the switch at R/A longer than
half
a
second, the vehicle will accelerate until you
release the switch
or
apply the brake.
So
unless you
want to
go
faster, don’t hold the switch at
WA.
Increasing Speed While Using Cruise Control
There are two ways to go to
a
higher speed:
Use the accelerator pedal to get to the higher speed.
Push
the button at the end
of
the lever and then
release the button and the accelerator pedal. You’ll
now
cruise at the higher speed.
Move the cruise switch from
ON
to
R/A.
Hold
it
there until
you
reach
a
desired speed and then
release the switch. (To increase
your
speed
in
very small amounts, move the switch to WA.
Each time you
do
this, your vehicle will
go
about
1
mph
(
1.6
km/h)
faster.)
The accelerate feature
will
only
work after you have
set
the cruise control speed by pushing the
SET
CRUISE button.
