160 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE WARNING! Leaving the Electronic Speed Control system on when not in use is dangerous. You could accidentally set the system or cause it to go faster than you want. You could lose control and have an accident. Always leave the system OFF when you are not using it. To Set At A Desired Speed When the vehicle reaches the speed desired, press downward on the lever to SET DECEL and release. Release the accelerator pedal and the vehicle will operate at the selected speed. NOTE: • The vehicle must be traveling at least 25 mph (40 km/h) for the speed control to set. • The vehicle should be traveling at a steady speed and on level ground before pressing the lever to SET DECEL. To Deactivate A soft tap on the brake pedal, or pulling the speed control lever toward you to CANCEL, or normal brake pressure while slowing the vehicle will deactivate the speed control without erasing the set speed from memory. Pressing the ON/OFF button or turning OFF the ignition erases the set speed from memory. To Resume Speed If you deactivate the speed control without erasing the set speed from memory and your vehicle speed is above 20 mph (32 km/h) you can resume the previous set speed. To do so, push the lever upward to RESUME ACCEL and release, and then remove your foot from the accelerator pedal.
