Driving your vehicle Cruise Control (CC)
Cruise Control (CC) (if equipped)
Cruise Control allows you to pro
-
gram the vehicle to maintain a con
-
stant speed without pressing the
accelerator pedal.
This function is designed to function
above approximately 30 km/h.
䳜 If Cruise Control is left on, (CRUISE
indicator light in the instrument
cluster illuminated) Cruise Control
can be switched on accidentally.
Keep Cruise Control off (CRUISE
indicator light OFF) when Cruise
Control is not in use, to avoid
inadvertently setting a speed.
䳜 Use Cruise Control only when
travelling on open highways in
good weather.
䳜 Do not use Cruise Control when it
may not be safe to keep the car
at a constant speed, for instance,
driving in heavy or varying traffic,
or on slippery (rainy, icy or snow-
covered) or winding roads or over
6% uphill or down-hill roads.
䳜 Pay particular attention to the
driving conditions whenever using
Cruise Control.
During cruise-speed driving of a
manual transmission vehicle, do not
shift into neutral without depress
-
ing the clutch pedal, since the
engine will be overrevved. If this
happens, depress the clutch pedal or
release the Driving Assist button.
During normal cruise control opera
-
tion, when the SET- button is acti
-
vated or reactivated after applying
the brakes, Cruise Control will ener
-
gize after approximately 3 seconds.
This delay is normal.
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.
