Resuming a Set Speed If 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, the cruise control shuts off. But it does not need to be reset. Once the vehicle is going about 39 km/h (24 mph) or more, briefly press the RES+ button. The vehicle returns to the previously set speed and stays there. If the RES+ button is held, the vehicle speed will continue to increase until the button is released or the brake pedal is applied. Do not hold in the RES+ button, unless you want the vehicle to go faster. Reducing Speed While Using Cruise Control There are two ways to reduce the vehicle speed while using cruise control: . Press the SET− button until the lower speed desired is reached, then release it. To slow down in small amounts, briefly press the SET− button. Each time this is done, the vehicle goes about 1.6 km/h (1 mph) slower. . Passing Another Vehicle While Using Cruise Control Use the accelerator pedal to increase the vehicle speed.

Using Cruise Control on Hills How well the cruise control works on hills depends upon the vehicle speed, load, and the steepness of the hills. When going up steep hills, you might have to step on the accelerator pedal to maintain the vehicle's speed. When going downhill, you might have to brake or shift to a lower gear to keep the vehicle's speed down. When the brakes are applied the cruise control turns off. . The accelerate feature only works after the cruise control is turned on by pressing the SET− button. 4-10
