Cruise Control The cruise set speed and the speedometer indicated speed may not always be exactly the same. When you apply the brakes or push the clutch pedal, the cruise control disengages. The DIC will show CRUISE DISENGAGED. See DIC Warnings and Messages on page 3-58. {CAUTION: Cruise control can be dangerous where you can not drive safely at a steady speed. So, do not 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. Do not use cruise control on slippery roads. 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 (TCS) on page 4-9. When road conditions allow you to safely use it again, you may turn the cruise control back on. With cruise control, you can maintain a speed of about 25 mph (40 km/h) or more without keeping your foot on the accelerator. This can really help on long trips. Cruise control does not work at speeds below about 25 mph (40 km/h). When using cruise control, the accelerator pedal will return to its fully-released position and will not move while cruise control is engaged. The Driver Information Center (DIC) will display the cruise set speed in a digital number. For example, the DIC will say CRUISE SET 60 mph (97 km/h). 3-10
