STARTING AND DRIVING Setting at a desired speed If the vehicle speed falls below about 40 km/h (25 mph), the preset speed will be automatically cancelled. If the vehicle speed drops 16 km/h (10 mph) below the preset speed, the preset speed will also automatically be cancelled. If the preset speed automatically cancels out for other than these reasons, have your vehicle checked by your Lexus dealer at the earliest opportunity. Resetting to a faster speed Pressing the control lever upward in the "RES/ACC" direction and hold it. Release the lever when the desired speed is attained. While the lever is held upward, the vehicle will gradually gain speed. When the difference between the actual vehicle speed and the set speed is less than 5 km/h (3 mph), the set speed can be increased 1.6 km/h (1 mph) each time by pressing the control lever upward in the "RES/ACC" direction quickly within 0.6 seconds. However, a quicker way to reset is to accelerate the vehicle and then press the control lever downward in the "SET/COAST" direction. The transmission must be in "D" before you set the cruise control speed. Bring your vehicle to the desired speed, push the lever down in the "SET/COAST" direction and release it. This sets the vehicle at that speed. If the speed is not satisfactory, tap the lever up for a faster speed, or tap it down for a slower speed. Each tap changes the set speed by 1.6 km/h (1.0 mph). You can now take your foot off the accelerator pedal. Cancelling the preset speed You can cancel the preset speed by either of the following: a. Pulling the control lever in the "CANCEL" direction. b. Depressing the brake pedal. 142

STARTING AND DRIVING
142
Setting at a desired speed
The transmission must be in “D” before you set the cruise
control speed.
Bring your vehicle to the desired speed, push the lever down
in the “SET/COAST” direction and release it. This sets the
vehicle at that speed. If the speed is not satisfactory, tap the
lever up for a faster speed, or tap it down for a slower speed.
Each tap changes the set speed by 1.6 km/h (1.0 mph). You
can now take your foot off the accelerator pedal.
Cancelling the preset speed
You can cancel the preset speed by either of the following:
a.
Pulling the control lever in the “CANCEL” direction.
b.
Depressing the brake pedal.
If the vehicle speed falls below about 40 km/h (25 mph), the
preset speed will be automatically cancelled.
If the vehicle speed drops 16 km/h (10 mph) below the preset
speed, the preset speed will also automatically be cancelled.
If the preset speed automatically cancels out for other than
these reasons, have your vehicle checked by your Lexus
dealer at the earliest opportunity.
Resetting to a faster speed
Pressing the control lever upward in the “RES/ACC”
direction and hold it. Release the lever when the desired
speed is attained. While the lever is held upward, the vehicle
will gradually gain speed.
When the difference between the actual vehicle speed and
the set speed is less than 5 km/h (3 mph), the set speed can
be increased 1.6 km/h (1 mph) each time by pressing the
control lever upward in the “RES/ACC” direction quickly
within 0.6 seconds.
However, a quicker way to reset is to accelerate the vehicle
and then press the control lever downward in the
“SET/COAST” direction.
