Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well the cruise control works
on hills depends upon the vehicle
speed, load, and the steepness of
the hills. When going up steep hills,
you might have to step on the
accelerator pedal to maintain the
vehicle speed. When going
downhill, you might have to brake or
shift to a lower gear to maintain the
vehicle speed. When the brakes are
applied the cruise control is
disengaged.

control:
.
Step lightly on the brake pedal;

control system off completely.

resumed.

Systems
Ultrasonic Parking Assist
If available, the Ultrasonic Front and
Rear Parking Assist (UFRPA)
system assists the driver with
parking and avoiding objects.
UFRPA operates at speeds less
than 8 km/h (5 mph). The sensors
on the front and rear bumper detect
objects up to 1.2 m (4 ft) in front of
the vehicle, 2.5 m (8 ft) behind the
vehicle, and at least 25 cm (10 in)
off the ground.
