UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 127 To Vary the Speed Setting: While ACC is set, you can increase the set speed by lifting and holding the lever up ("RES/ACCEL"). If the lever is continually held, the set speed will continue to increase in 5 mph (Canada 10 km/h) increments until the lever is released. The increase in set speed is reflected in the EVIC display. Lifting the lever up and releasing once will result in a 1 mph (Canada 1 km/h) increase in set speed. Each subsequent lift and release of the lever results in an increase of 1 mph (Canada 1 km/h). While ACC is set, the set speed can be decreased by pushing the lever down and holding ("SET/DECEL"). If the lever is continually held, the set speed will continue to decrease in 5 mph (Canada 10 km/h) increments until the lever is released. The decrease in set speed is reflected in the EVIC display. Pushing the lever down and releasing once will result in a 1 mph (Canada 1 km/h) decrease in set speed. Each subsequent push and release of the lever results in a decrease of 1 mph (Canada 1 km/h). NOTE: • When you use the lever to decelerate, if the engine's braking power does not slow the vehicle sufficiently to reach the set speed, the brake system will automatically slow the vehicle. • The ACC system maintains set speed when driving up hill and down hill. However, a slight speed change on moderate hills is normal. In addition, downshifting may occur while climbing uphill or descending downhill. This is normal operation and necessary to maintain set speed. 3
