STARTING AND DRIVING Setting at a desired speed On vehicles with automatic transmission, the transmission must be in "D" before you set the cruise control speed. Bring the vehicle to the desired speed, press the control lever downward in the "SET/COAST" direction and release it. This sets the vehicle at that speed. Now you may take your foot off the accelerator pedal. If you need acceleration - for example, when passing - depress the accelerator pedal enough for the vehicle to exceed the set speed. When you release the accelerator pedal, the vehicle will return to the speed set prior to the acceleration. Cancelling the preset speed You can cancel the preset speed by any of the following: a. Pulling the control lever in the "CANCEL" direction. b. Depressing the brake pedal. 171
