OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE To reset the cruise control to a faster speed, use either of the following procedures: • Hold in the "RES/ACC" switch (4). Vehicle speed will steadily increase. When you release the switch, the new speed will be maintained. • Accelerate to the desired speed using the accelerator pedal and push the "SET/COAST" switch (3). The new speed will be maintained. To "Resume" a Previously Set Speed After canceling cruise control operation without turning off the "ON/OFF" switch (1), you can "resume" a previously set speed, by holding the "RES/ACC" switch (4) for about one second. When you release the switch, the vehicle will accelerate to and maintain the previously set speed. NOTE: If the "ON/OFF" switch (1) is turned off, the set speed in the memory is cleared and you can not use the Resume feature. In this case, reset your CRUISE speed. Braking To Cancel To cancel cruise control operation, use one of the following procedures: • Slightly depress the brake pedal or clutch pedal, or push the "CANCEL" switch (2). Cruise control operation will be canceled until you reset a cruising speed by pushing the "SET/COAST" switch (3) or "RES/ACC" switch (4). • Push the "ON/OFF" switch (1). Cruise control operation will be canceled until you turn on the system by pushing the "ON/OFF" switch (1) again and reset a cruising speed by pushing the "SET/ COAST" switch (3). Cruise control operation will also be canceled any time the vehicle speed falls below 40 km/h (25 mph). 60G165 The distance needed to bring any vehicle to a halt increases with the speed of the vehicle. The braking distance needed, for example, at 60 km/h (37 mph) will be approximately 4 times greater than the braking distance needed at 30 km/h (19 mph). Start to brake the vehicle when there is plenty of distance between your vehicle and the stopping point, and slow down gradually. 3-27 79K20-03E

OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
79K20-03E
To reset the cruise control to a faster
speed, use either of the following proce-
dures:
Hold in the “RES/ACC” switch (4). Vehi-
cle speed will steadily increase. When
you release the switch, the new speed
will be maintained.
• Accelerate to the desired speed using
the accelerator pedal and push the

speed will be maintained.
To Cancel
To cancel cruise control operation, use one
of the following procedures:
• Slightly depress the brake pedal or
clutch pedal, or push the “CANCEL”
switch (2). Cruise control operation will
be canceled until you reset a cruising
speed by pushing the “SET/COAST”
switch (3) or “RES/ACC” switch (4).
• Push the “ON/OFF” switch (1). Cruise
control operation will be canceled until
you turn on the system by pushing the
“ON/OFF” switch (1) again and reset a
cruising speed by pushing the “SET/
COAST” switch (3).
Cruise control operation will also be can-
celed any time the vehicle speed falls
below 40 km/h (25 mph).
To “Resume” a Previously Set
Speed
After canceling cruise control operation
without turning off the “ON/OFF” switch
(1), you can “resume” a previously set
speed, by holding the “RES/ACC” switch
(4) for about one second. When you
release the switch, the vehicle will acceler-
ate to and maintain the previously set
speed.
NOTE:
If the “ON/OFF” switch (1) is turned off, the
set speed in the memory is cleared and
you can not use the Resume feature. In
this case, reset your CRUISE speed.
Braking
60G165
The distance needed to bring any vehicle
to a halt increases with the speed of the
vehicle. The braking distance needed, for
example, at 60 km/h (37 mph) will be
approximately 4 times greater than the
braking distance needed at 30 km/h (19
mph). Start to brake the vehicle when there
is plenty of distance between your vehicle
and the stopping point, and slow down
gradually.
