142 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE To Vary Speed Setting: When the speed control is ON, speed can be increased by pushing up and holding RESUME ACCEL. Release the lever when the desired speed is reached, and the new speed will be set. Pushing up and quickly releasing the RESUME ACCEL lever will result in a 1 mph (2 km/h) speed increase. Each time the lever is pushed upwards and quickly released. To decrease speed while speed control is ON, push down and hold SET DECEL. Release the lever when the desired speed is reached, and the new speed will be set. Pushing down the SET DECEL button once will result in a 1 mph (2 km/h) speed decrease. Each time the button is pushed, speed decreases. WARNING! Speed Control can be dangerous where the system can't maintain a constant speed. Your vehicle could go too fast for the conditions, and you could lose control. An accident could be the result. Don't use Speed Control in heavy traffic or on roads that are winding, icy, snow-covered, or slippery. To Accelerate For Passing: Depress the accelerator as you would normally. When the pedal is released, the vehicle will return to the set speed. Using Speed Control on Hills NOTE: The speed control system maintains speed up and down hills. A slight speed change on moderate hills is normal.
