Setting Cruise Control Resuming a Set Speed Suppose you set your cruise control at a desired speed and then you apply the brake. This, of course, shuts off the cruise control. But you don't need to reset it. Once you're going about 25 mph (40 km/h) or more, you can press the cruise control RES ACCL button for about half a second. You'll go right back up to your chosen speed and stay there. If you press the RES ACCL button longer than half a second, the vehicle will keep going faster until you release the button or apply the brake. So unless you want to go faster, don't hold down the RES ACCL button. CAUTION: If you leave your cruise control switch on when you're not using cruise, you might hit a button and go into cruise when you don't want to. You could be startled and even lose control. Keep the cruise control switch off until you want to use cruise control. 1. Press the cruise control ON OFF button. The indicator light above the button will turn on. 2. Get up to the speed you want. 3. Press the CST SET button and release it. The CRUISE light on the instrument panel cluster will come on. 4. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal. 2-39
