06 04.25 Under certain circumstances, the cruise control is temporarily cancelled: RESETTING TO A FASTER SPEED Push the lever up in the "+RES" direction and hold it. Release the lever when the desired speed is attained. While the lever is held up, the vehicle will gradually gain speed. However, a faster way to reset is to accelerate the vehicle and then push the lever down in the "- SET" direction. RESETTING TO A SLOWER SPEED Push the lever down in the "- SET" direction and hold it. Release the lever when the desired speed is attained. While the lever is held down, the vehicle speed will gradually decrease. However, a faster way to reset is to depress the brake pedal and then push the lever down in the "- SET" direction. On vehicles with automatic transmission, even if you downshift from "D" to "4" (5- speed automatic transmission) or "3" (4- speed automatic transmission), with the cruise control on, engine braking will not be enabled because the cruise control is not cancelled. To decrease the vehicle speed, reset to a slower speed with the cruise control lever or depress the brake pedal. If you use the brake pedal, cruise control is cancelled.
