Cruise control*
E00609100708
Cruise
control is an automatic speed control system
that keeps a set speed. It can be activated at speeds
from about 40 km/h (25 mph) up to about
200 km/h (124 mph).
CAUTION
l
When
you do not wish to drive at a set
speed, turn off the cruise control for safety.
l
Do not use cruise control when driving
conditions will not allow you to stay at
the same speed, such as in heavy traffic
or on roads that are winding, icy, snow-
covered, wet, slippery, on a steep down-
hill slope.
l
On vehicles with M/T, do not move the
gearshift lever to the “N” (Neutral) posi-
tion while driving at a set speed without
depressing the clutch pedal. The engine
will run too fast and might be damaged.
NOTE
l
Cruise
control may not be able to keep your
speed on uphills or downhills.
l
Your speed may decrease on a steep uphill.
You may use the accelerator pedal if you
want to stay at your set speed.
l
Your speed may increase to more than the
set speed on a steep downhill. You have to
use the brake to control your speed. As a re-
sult, the set speed driving is deactivated.
