CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
The cruise control system allows you to
program the vehicle to maintain a con-
stant speed without depressing the
accelerator pedal.
This system is designed to function
above approximately 40 km/h (25 mph).
If the cruise control is left on, (CRUISE
indicator light in the instrument cluster illu-
minated) the cruise control can be
switched on accidentally. Keep the cruise
control system off (CRUISE indicator light
OFF) when the cruise control is not in use,
to avoid inadvertently setting a speed.
Use the cruise control system only when
traveling on open highways in good
weather.
Do not use the cruise control when driving
in heavy or varying traffic, or on slippery
(rainy, icy or snow-covered) or winding
roads or over 6% up-hill or down-hill roads.
✽✽
NOTICE
During normal cruise control operation,
when the SET switch is activated or
reactivated after applying the brakes,
the cruise control will energize after
approximately 3 seconds. This delay is
normal.
✽✽
NOTICE
To activate cruise control, depress the
brake pedal at least once after turning
the ignition switch to the ON position or
starting the engine. This is to check if
the brake switch which is important
part to cancel cruise control is in normal
condition.
To set cruise control speed:
1. Press the CRUISE button on the steer-
ing wheel to turn the system on. The
CRUISE indicator light in the instru-
ment cluster will illuminate.
2. Accelerate to the desired speed, which
must be more than 40 km/h (25 mph).
WARNING
- Misuse cruise
control
Do not use cruise control if the traf-
fic situation does not allow you to
drive safely at a constant speed
and with sufficient distance to the
vehicle in front.
