Cruise Control
{CAUTION:
Cruise control can be dangerous where
you cannot drive safely at a steady speed.
So, do not use your cruise control on
winding roads or in heavy traffic.
Cruise control can be dangerous on
slippery roads. On such roads, fast
changes in tire traction can cause
excessive wheel slip, and you could lose
control. Do not use cruise control on
slippery roads.
With cruise control, you can maintain a speed of
about 25 mph (40 km/h) or more without
keeping your foot on the accelerator. This can
really help on long trips. Cruise control does not
work at speeds below about 25 mph (40 km/h).
When you apply your brakes, cruise control
is turned off.
If your vehicle has an Allison
®
automatic
transmission, see “Grade Braking and Cruise
Grade Braking (Allison Transmission
®
) under
Tow/Haul Mode on page 144 for an explanation of
how cruise control interacts with the range selection
mode, tow/haul and grade braking systems.
If your vehicle has the StabiliTrak
®
™ system and
begins to limit wheel spin while you are using
cruise control, the cruise control will automatically
disengage. See StabiliTrak
®
System on
page 381. When road conditions allow you to
safely use it again, you may turn the cruise
control back on.
The cruise control
buttons are located on
left side of the
steering wheel.
