To Resume a Set Speed Suppose you set your cruise control at a desired speed and then you apply the brake. This, of course, shutsoff 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 move the cruise control switch from ON to R/A (Resume/Accelerate) for about half a second. You'll go right back up to your chosen speed and stay there. To Increase Speed While Using Cruise Control There are two ways to go to a higher speed. Here's the first: 1. Use the accelerator pedal to get tothe higher speed. 2. Push the SET button at the end of the lever, then release the button and the accelerator pedal. You'll now cruise at the higher speed. Here's the second way to go to a higher speed: I . Move the cruise switch from ON to WA. Hold it there until you get up to the speed you want, and then release the switch. 2. To increase your speed in very small amounts, move the switch to WA for less than half a second and then release it. Each time you do this, your vehicle will go 1 mph (1.6 km/h) faster. If you tap R/A five times, you will go 5 mph faster. If you hold the switch at WA longer than half a second, the vehicle will keep going faster until you release the switch or apply the brake. You could be startled and even lose control. So unless you want to go faster, don't hold the switch at R/A. The accelerate feature will only work after you have set the cruise control speed by pushing the SET button. 2-34
