Increasing Set Speed While Using Adaptive Cruise Control There are two ways to increase the set speed: Decreasing Set Speed While Using Adaptive Cruise Control Press T at the end of the lever until the lower speed desired is reached, then release the button. To slow down in small amounts, briefly press T . Each this is done, the set speed will be 1 mph (1.6 km/h) slower. • Use the accelerator to get to the higher speed. Press T at the end of the lever, then release the button and the accelerator pedal. The vehicle will now cruise at the higher speed. • Move the Adaptive Cruise Control switch from R to S . Hold it there until the desired set speed is displayed in the HUD, then release the switch. To increase the set speed in small amounts, move the switch briefly to resume/increase. Each time this is done, the vehicle set speed increases by about 1 mph (1.6 km/h). Your vehicle will not reach the set speed until the system determines there is no vehicle in front of you. At that point, your vehicle speed will increase to the set speed. Resuming a Set Speed If the brakes are applied while the Adaptive Cruise Control is at a set speed, this disengages the Adaptive Cruise Control. But it does not need to be reset. Once the vehicle reaches about 30 mph (48 km/h) or more, move the Adaptive Cruise Control switch briefly from R to S . Adaptive Cruise Control will be engaged with the speed previously selected. 3-24
