Resuming a Set Speed Use the SET button to reset cruise (see "Setting Cruise Control" earlier in this section). If you hold the switch at R/A longer than half a second, the vehicle will keep going faster until you release the switch or apply the brake. You could be startled and even lose control. So unless you want to go faster, don't hold the switch at R/A. Increasing SpeedWhile Using Cruise Control There are two ways to go to ahigher speed: 0 Use the accelerator pedal to get to the higher speed. Push the SET button at the end of the lever, then release the button and the accelerator pedal. You'll now cruise at the higher speed. Move the cruise switch from ON to R/A. Hold it there until you get up to the speed you want, and then release the switch. (To increase your speed in very small amounts, move the switch to R/A for less than half a second and then release it. Each time you do this, your vehicle will go about 1 mph ( 1.6 km/h) faster.) 0 Suppose you set your cruise control at a desired speed and then you apply the brake. This, of course, shuts off the cruise control. But you don't need to reset it. Once you're going about 25 mph (40 k m k ) or more, ON you can move the cruise control switch from to RESUME/ACCEL (R/A) for about half a second. You'll go right back up to your chosen speed and stay there. The accelerate featurewill work whether or not you have set an initial cruise control speed. 2-57
