Cruise Control Switch
WARNING
Do not use the cruise control system when driv-
ing conditions do not permit maintaining a con-
stant speed, such as heavy traffic or on roads
that are winding, icy, snow covered, slippery, or
roads with a loose driving surface. Failure to fol-
low this precaution could cause a collision or
loss of vehicle control, possibly resulting in per-
sonal injury or property damage.
NOTICE
If equipped with a manual transmission, do not
attempt to shift gears without using the clutch
pedal when the cruise control is engaged. Failure
to follow this precaution will result in a temporar-
ily uncontrolled increase in engine speed; trans-
mission damage and gear stripping could result.
NOTE: Maximum cruise control speed varies
according to vehicle specifications, but cannot
be higher than 75 mph (121 km/h).
On standard models, cruise control is activated by
two dash switches. See
Fig. 4.12. On some models,
the cruise control can be activated by a button on the
transmission shift knob.
The On/Off Switch—this two-position rocker
switch bears the legend SPD CNTL on the
lower half of the switch. When the cruise con-
trol is on, an amber light illuminates in the top
part of the switch.
