If your vehicle is in cruise control when the enhanced traction system begins to limit wheel spin, the cruise control will automatically disengage. See Enhanced Traction System (ETS) on page 4-10. When road conditions allow you to safely use it again, you may turn the cruise control back on. Resuming a Set Speed Suppose you set your cruise control at a desired speed and then you apply the brake. This, of course, shuts off 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) briefly. You'll go right back up to your chosen speed and stay there. Setting Cruise Control Increasing Speed While Using Cruise Control If you leave your cruise control on when you're not using cruise, you might hit a button and go into cruise when you don't want to.
