'05 MATRIX_U (L/O 0409) If you need acceleration-for example, when passing-depress the accelerator pedal enough for the vehicle to exceed the set speed. When you release it, the vehicle will return to the speed set prior to the acceleration. CAUTION For manual transmission: While driving with the cruise control on, do not shift to neutral without depressing the clutch pedal, as this may cause engine racing or overrevving. CANCELLING THE PRESET SPEED You can cancel the preset speed by: a. Pulling the lever in the direction and releasing it. b. Depressing the brake pedal. c. Depressing the clutch pedal (manual transmission). d. Pushing "ON- OFF" switch. If the vehicle speed falls below about 40 km/h (25 mph), the preset speed will automatically cancel out. "CANCEL" TURNING THE SYSTEM ON To operate the cruise control, push the "ON- OFF" switch. This turns the system on. The indicator light in the instrument panel shows that you can now set the vehicle at a desired cruising speed. Another push will turn the system completely off. SETTING AT A DESIRED SPEED On vehicles with automatic transmission, the transmission must be in "D" before you set the cruise control speed. Bring your vehicle to the desired speed, push the lever down in the "- SET" direction and release it. This sets the vehicle at that speed. If the speed is not satisfactory, tap the lever up for a faster speed, or tap it down for a slower speed. Each tap changes the set speed by 1.6 km/h (1.0 mph). You can now take your foot off the accelerator pedal. CAUTION To avoid accidental cruise control engagement, keep the "ON- OFF" switch off when not using the cruise control. 133 2005 MATRIX from Sep.
