Predictive Cruise Control (PCC) is an optional fuel
savings application that adjusts vehicle speed predic-
tively, based on the approaching road. Using 3D digi-
tal map technology and GPS, PCC evaluates the up-
coming road grade about a mile in advance to
determine the most fuel-efficient vehicle speed. Ve-
hicles equipped with PCC have a sticker on the
dash. See
Fig. 5.23.
The 3D digital map database contains profile infor-
mation for over 200,000 highway miles (322,000 km)
in the 48 contiguous United States. PCC will vary the
set cruise speed by up to 6% depending on the ap-
proaching road grade. If the engine brake is enabled,
PCC will automatically engage the engine brake
when actual vehicle speed exceeds the cruise set
speed by 6%. This is different from conventional
cruise control, which maintains the speed set by the
driver.
WARNING
Apply the brakes and downshift as necessary
when driving on downhill grades. PCC does not
adequately control vehicle speed on steep down-
hill grades. Failure to use normal braking tech-
niques when PCC is active could result in per-
sonal injury and vehicle damage.
IMPORTANT: PCC adjusts the vehicle set speed
to achieve maximum fuel economy, but it does
