SE T switch fu nctions while t he vehicle is moving,
and above 25 m ph (40 km /h). In order for the speed
control to engage, the bra kes can not be a pplied, n or

Excessive engine rpm (indicates tha t t he tra ns-
mission m ay be in a low gea r)
Th e speed sign al in creases at a r ate of 10 m ph
per secon d (indicates t hat th e coefficient of fr iction
between the roa d surface an d tires is extremely low)
Th e speed signa l decrea ses at a ra te of 10 mph

deceler ated a t an extremely high ra te)
Once th e speed con trol has been disenga ged,
depr essing the RES/ACCEL switch (when speed is
grea ter than 30 mph ) restores the vehicle to the ta r-
get speed th at was stored in th e ECM.
While the speed control is engaged, th e driver ca n
