Depress the accelerator pedal. When the vehicle attains the desired speed, push and release the COAST/SET switch. . Push and hold the ACCELERATE/RESUME switch. When the vehicle attains the desired speed, release the switch. . Push, then quickly release the ACCELERATE/RESUME switch. Each time you do this, the set speed will increase by about 1 MPH (1.6 km/h). To reset at a slower cruising speed, use one of the following methods: . Lightly tap the brake pedal. When the vehicle attains the desired speed, push the COAST/SET switch and release it. . Push and hold the COAST/SET switch. Release the switch when the vehicle slows down to the desired speed. . Push, then quickly release the COAST/SET switch. Each time you do this, the set speed will decrease by about 1 MPH (1.6 km/h). To resume the preset speed, push and release the ACCELERATE/RESUME switch. The vehicle will resume the last set cruising speed when the vehicle speed is over 25 MPH (40 km/h).
