Cruise Control • the parking brake is applied, or • the brake system warning light is on. {CAUTION: Cruise control can be dangerous where you cannot drive safely at a steady speed. So, do not use your cruise control on winding roads or in heavy traffic. Cruise control can be dangerous on slippery roads. On such roads, fast changes in tire traction can cause needless wheel spinning, and you could lose control. Do not use cruise control on slippery roads. Your vehicle may have Enhanced Traction System (ETS). See Enhanced Traction System (ETS) on page 4-8. If your vehicle is in cruise control while the ETS begins to limit wheel spin, the cruise control will automatically disengage. When road conditions allow you to safely use it again, you may turn the cruise control back on. The cruise control buttons are located on the bottom of the steering wheel. With cruise control, you can maintain a speed of about 25 mph (40 km/h) or more without keeping your foot on the accelerator. This can really help on long trips. Cruise control does not work at speeds below 25 mph (40 km/h). The cruise control will turn off if any of the following occur: • The brakes are applied, • the automatic transaxle is shifted to NEUTRAL (N), 3-11
