Here's the second way to go to ahigher speed: Move the cruise switch from ON to WA. Hold it there until you get up to the speed you want, and then release the switch. Passing Another Vehicle While Using Cruise Control Use the accelerator pedal to increase your speed. When you take your foot off the pedal,your vehicle will slow down to the cruisecontrol speed you set earlier. To increase your speed in very small amounts, move the switch to R/A for lessthan half a second and then release it. Each time you do this, your vehicle will go about 1 mph (1.6 km/h) faster. If you have the 3.1L V6 engine, the accelerate feature will work whether or not you have set an initial cruise control speed. Using Cruise Control on Hills How well your cruise control will work on depends hills upon your speed, load, andthe steepness of the hills.
