Setting Cruise Cc-trol Once you're going about 25 mph (40 km/h) or more, you can move the cruise control switch to R/A (Resume/Accelerate) briefly. The Driver Information Center (DIC) will display the cruise set speed. You'll go right back up to your chosen speed and stay there. If you leave your cruise control on wheny not using cruise, you might hit a button ana 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. . Increasing Speed While Using Cruise Control There are two ways to go to a higher speed: Use the accelerator pedal to get to the higher speed. The speed will not begin to increase until sufficient pedal travel is achieved. Press the SET button at the end of the lever, then release the button and the accelerator pedal. You'll now cruise at the higher speed. Move the cruise switch to R/A. Hold it there until you get up to the speed you want, then release the switch. (To increase your speed in very small amounts, move the switch to R/A briefly, then release it. Each time you do this, the vehicle will go about 1 mph (1.6 km/h) faster.) The Driver Information Center (DIC) will display the cruise set speed. 1. Move the cruise control switch to ON. 2. Get up to the speed you want. 3. Press the SET button at the end of the lever and release it. The cruise set speed will be displayed by the Driver Information Center (DIC). 4. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal. The pedal will return to an idle position. Resuming a Set Speed Suppose you set the cruise control at a desired speed and then you apply the brake or clutch pedal. This, of course, disengages the cruise control. But you don't need to reset it. 3-10

Setting Cruise Cc-trol
If
you leave your cruise control on when y
.
not using cruise,
you might hit a button ana 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.
Move
the cruise control switch to
ON.
2.
Get
up
to
the
speed
you want.
3. Press the SET button at the end of the lever and
release it.
The cruise set speed will be displayed
by the Driver Information Center
(DIC).
4.
Take
your foot off the accelerator pedal. The pedal
will return to an idle position.
Resuming a
Set Speed
Suppose
you
set the cruise control at a desired speed
and then you apply the brake or clutch pedal. This,
of course, disengages 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 move the cruise control
switch to R/A
(Resume/Accelerate) briefly.
The Driver Information
Center (DIC) will display
the cruise set
speed.
You’ll go right back up to your
chosen
speed
and
stay there.
Increasing Speed
While
Using
Cruise
Control
There are two ways to go to a higher
speed:
Use the accelerator pedal to get to the
higher
speed. The
speed will not
begin to increase
until sufficient pedal travel is
achieved.
Press
the
SET button at
the
end
of
the lever, then
release
the
button and the accelerator
pedal.
You’ll
now
cruise at the higher
speed.
Move the cruise switch to R/A. Hold it there until
you
get
up to the speed
you
want,
then
release
the switch. (To increase
your
speed in very
small
amounts,
move
the switch to R/A briefly,
then
release it.
Each
time
you
do
this,
the
vehicle
will
go
about 1 mph
(1.6
km/h)
faster.)
The Driver Information Center (DIC)
will
display
the
cruise set speed.
