STARTING AND DRIVING 2 Cancelling the preset speed However, a quicker way to reset is to accelerate the vehicle and then press the control lever downward in the "- SET" direction. 4 Resetting to a slower speed Press the control lever downward in the "- SET" direction and hold it. Release the lever when the desired speed is attained. While the lever is held downward, the vehicle speed will gradually decrease.

However, a quicker way to reset is to depress the brake pedal and then press the control lever downward in the "- SET" direction. With the cruise control on, even if you downshift the transmission from the "D" position or "6" (sixth range) to the "5" (fifth range), or from the "D" position or "5" (fifth range) to the "4" (fourth range), engine braking will not be enabled because the cruise control is not cancelled. To decrease the vehicle speed, reset to a slower speed with the cruise control lever or depress the brake pedal. If you use the brake pedal, cruise control is cancelled. You can cancel the preset speed by doing any of the following: a. Pulling the control lever in the "CANCEL" direction. b. Depressing the brake pedal. c. Pushing the "ON−OFF" button. 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 slip indicator light blinks and a warning tone sounds, the preset speed will be automatically cancelled. If the preset speed automatically cancels out for other than the above reasons, do not operate the cruise control. Although it is no problem to continue driving, have your vehicle checked by your Lexus dealer at the earliest opportunity. 3 Resetting to a faster speed Press the control lever upward in the "+ RES" direction and hold it.
