3. Press the SET ACCEL switch and release it immediately to set your speed. If you keep this switch pressed, your speed will continue to increase. 4. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal. Your vehicle will maintain the speed you set. If you drive up or down a steep hill, your vehicle may momentarily slow down or speed up, even though the speed control is on. This is normal. The speed control switches on the steering wheel To set the speed control: 1. Press and release the ON switch. 2. Accelerate to the desired speed above 30 mph (50 km/h) using the accelerator pedal. When driving uphill, especially with a heavy load, significant speed drops may occur. If the speed drops more than 8-14 mph (13-23 km/h) the automatic speed control will, by design, be cancelled. If this happens, your vehicle may require manual operation to maintain your desired speed. 96
