the cruise control speed by pushing the
SET button.
Reducing
Speed
While
Using
Cruise
Control
There are two ways to reduce your speed while using
cruise control:
Push in the button at the end of the lever until you
reach a desired lower speed then release it.
To
slow down in very small amounts, push the
button for less than half a second. Each time you do
this, you’ll
go
1
mph
(1.6
km/h)
slower.
Passing

Using

Use the accelerator pedal to increase your speed. When
you take your foot off the pedal, your vehicle will slow
down
to
the cruise control speed you set earlier.
Using
Cruise
Control
on
Hills
How well your cruise control will work on hills depends
upon your speed, load, and the steepness of the hills.
When going up steep hills, you may have
to
step on the
accelerator pedal to maintain your speed. When going
downhill, you may have to brake or shift to a lower gear
to
keep your speed down. Of course, applying the brake
takes you out of cruise control. Many drivers find this to
be too much trouble and don’t use cruise control on
steep hills.
Ending Cruise
Control
There are two ways to turn
off
the cruise control:
Step lightly on the brake pedal,
or
Move the cruise switch to
OFF.
The
CRUISE
light
will also
go
out.
Erasing
Speed
Memory
When you turn
off
the cruise control or the ignition,
your cruise control set speed memory is erased.
