Saturn 2004 Vue User Manual

Setting Cruise Control
{CAUTION:
If you leave your cruise control on when you
are not using cruise, you might hit a button
and go into cruise when you do not want to.
You could be startled and even lose control.
Keep the cruise control switch off until you
want to use cruise control.
1. Press the cruise on/off button. The indicator light
will come on.
2. Get up to the speed you want.
3. Press the set/coast button.
4. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal.
Resuming a Set Speed
Suppose you set your cruise control at a desired
speed and then you apply the brake. This, of course,
disengages the cruise control. But you don’t need
to reset it.
Once you’re going about 25 mph (40 km/h) or more,
you can press the cruise control res/accel button.
You will go right back up to your chosen speed and
stay there.
If you hold the res/accel button the vehicle will keep
going faster until you release the button or apply
the brake. So unless you want to go faster, do not
hold the res/accel button.
Increasing Speed While Using Cruise
Control
There are two ways to go to a higher speed:
• Use the accelerator pedal to get to the higher
speed. Press the set/coast button, then release
the button and the accelerator pedal. You’ll
now cruise at the higher speed.
• Press the res/accel button. Hold it there until you
get up to the speed you want, and then release
the button. To increase your speed in very
small amounts, press the button briefly. Each
time you do this, your vehicle will go about
1 mph (1.6 km/h) faster.
