Cancelling and Resuming a Set Speed If you press the brake pedal, the speed control is cancelled. You can return to the speed you set by using the RSM switch, as long as you did not press the OFF switch. To resume the speed you had before, you must be driving at least 30 mph (50 km/h). Press and release the RSM switch. Your vehicle gradually returns to the previously set speed and then maintains it. RWARNING If your vehicle has speed control, do not use it on slippery roads. You could lose control of your vehicle and could injure someone. Speed Control Indicator (If equipped) A SPEED CONTROL light is displayed in the instrument cluster when the speed control system is engaged. The display will turn off when the brake pedal is pressed or if speed control is shut off. This display does not indicate any problems with the speed control, but is simply a convenient way of knowing when it is active. 146
