218 Cruise Control Resuming the Set Speed Note: Resume should only be used if you are aware of the set speed and intend to return to it. Press and release RES. Your vehicle will return to the previously set speed. The set speed will display continuously in the information display while the system is active. Low Speed Automatic Cancellation The system is not functional at vehicle speeds below 16 mph (26 km/h). An audible alarm sounds and the automatic braking released if your vehicle drops below this speed. Hilly Condition Usage Note: An audible alarm sounds and the system shuts down if it is applying brakes for an extended period of time. This allows the brakes to cool down. The system will function normally again when the brakes have cooled down. You should select a lower gear position when the system is active in situations such as prolonged downhill driving on steep grades, for example driving in mountainous areas. Your vehicle needs additional engine braking in these situations to reduce the load on the vehicle's regular brake system to prevent them from overheating. Switching Off Adaptive Cruise Control Note: The set speed memory will erase when you switch the system off. Press and release OFF or turn off the ignition. 2015 Taurus Owners Guide gf, 1st Printing, April 2014 USA (fus)
