3. Press the SET button and release it. The cruise control light will come on in the instrument panel cluster to show that the cruise control is on. 4. Take your foot off the accelerate pedal. Increasing Speed While Using Cruise Control There are two ways to go to a higher speed. Resuming a Set Speed Suppose the cruise control is set to a desired speed and then the brakes are applied, or the clutch pedal if you have a manual transmission. This shuts off the cruise control. But it does not need to be reset. Once the vehicle is going about 24 mph (39 km/h) or more, briefly press the RESUME button. The vehicle returns to the chosen speed and stays there. If the RESUME button is held longer, the vehicle keeps going faster until the button is released or the brake pedal is applied. Do not hold in the RESUME button, unless you want the vehicle to go faster. • Use the accelerator pedal to get to a higher speed. Press the SET button, then release the button and the accelerator pedal. The vehicle will now cruise at the higher speed. • Press the RESUME button. Hold it there until the desired speed is reached, and then release the button. To increase the vehicle's speed in very small amounts, briefly press the RESUME button and then release it. Each time this is done, the vehicle goes about 1 mph (1.6 km/h) faster. The accelerate feature only works after the cruise control is turned on by pressing the SET button. Reducing Speed While Using Cruise Control There are two ways to reduce the vehicle's speed while using cruise control: • Press the SET button until the lower speed desired is reached, then release it. • To slow down in very small amounts, briefly press the SET button. Each time this is done, the vehicle goes about 1 mph (1.6 km/h) slower. 3-14
