Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well the cruise control works
on hills depends upon the vehicle
speed, load, and the steepness
of the hills. When going up steep
hills, you might have to step on
the accelerator pedal to maintain
the vehicle speed. When going
downhill, you might have to brake or
shift to a lower gear to maintain the
vehicle's speed. When the brakes
are applied the cruise control is
disengaged.
Ending Cruise Control
There are three ways to end cruise
control:
.
To disengage cruise control;
step lightly on the brake pedal
or clutch, the indicator light will
go off.
.
Press * CANCEL.
.
To turn off the cruise control,
press ON/OFF
5 CRUISE.
The cruise control cannot be
resumed.
Erasing Speed Memory
The cruise control set speed
is erased from memory if
ON/OFF
5 CRUISE is pressed
or if the vehicle is turned off.
