CRUISE CONTROL OPERATIONS
The cruise control allows driving at speeds above

accelerator pedal.
The cruise control will automatically be cancelled if
the vehicle slows down more than approximately
13 km/h (8 MPH) below the set speed.
Moving the shift lever to the N (Neutral) position will
cancel the cruise control and the SET indicator light
will turn off.
The cruise control switches are located on the steer-
ing wheel.
