Push in the
SET
button until you reach the lower
speed you want, then release it.
To
slow down in very small amounts, push the
SET
button for less than half a second. Each time you do
this, you'll go
1
mph
(1.6
km/h)
slower.
Passing Another Vehicle While Using Cruise Control
Use the accelerator pedal to increase your speed. When
you take your foot
off
the.peda1, 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 hil.ls.
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.
Erasing Cruise Speed Memory
When you turn
off
the cruise control or the ignition, or
shift into PARK
(P)
or NEUTRAL (N), your cruise
control set speed memory is erased.
