Ford 2014 ECOSPORT - Cruise Control; Principle of Operation; Switching Cruise Control on; Using Cruise Control

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
Cruise control lets you maintain a set
speed without keeping your foot on the
accelerator pedal. You can use cruise
control when your vehicle speed is greater
than 20 mph (30 km/h).
USING CRUISE CONTROL
WARNINGS
Do not use cruise control on winding
roads, in heavy traffic or when the
road surface is slippery. This could
result in loss of vehicle control, serious
injury or death.
When you are going downhill, your
speed may increase above the set
speed. The system will not apply the
brakes. Change down a gear to assist the
system in maintaining the set speed.
Failure to do so could result in loss of
vehicle control, serious injury or death.
The cruise controls are located on the
steering wheel.

vehicle speed decreases more than 10 mph
