yellowblue Setting Cruise Control CAUTION: D Cruise control can be dangerous where you can't drive safely at a steady speed. So, don't use your cruise control on winding roads or in heavy traffic. Cruise control can be dangerous on slippery roads. On such roads, fast changes in tire traction can cause needless wheel spinning, and you could lose control. Don't use cruise control on slippery roads. CAUTION: If you leave your cruise control switch on when you're not using cruise, you might hit a button and go into cruise when you don't want to. You could be startled and even lose control. Keep the cruise control switch off until you want to use it. 1. Move the cruise control switch to ON. 2. Accelerate to the speed you want. 3. Press the SET CRUISE button at the end of the lever and release it. The CRUISE ENGAGED message will display on the Driver Information Center (DIC). 4. Remove your foot from the accelerator pedal. Resuming a Set Speed Setting the cruise control at a desired speed and then applying the brake will end the cruise function. D If your vehicle is in cruise control when the traction control system begins to limit wheel spin, the cruise control will automatically disengage. (See "Traction Control System" in the Index.) When road conditions allow you to safely use it again, you may turn the cruise control back on. 2-40
