'06 AVALON_U (OM41418U) CAUTION To avoid accidentally engaging the cruise control, keep the "ON−OFF" button off when not using the cruise control. 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. CANCELLING THE PRESET SPEED You can cancel the preset speed by: a. Pulling the direction. lever in the "CANCEL" b. Depressing the brake pedal. c. Pressing the "ON−OFF" button. SETTING AT A DESIRED SPEED The transmission must be in the "D" position or the shift range position must be "4" (fourth range) or "5" (fifth range) in "S" mode 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. If cancelled by c., the "CRUISE" indicator light goes off in the instrument panel. In this case, the present speed data is cleared, and you must set the speed from the beginning. In the following cases, the preset speed automatically cancels out: a. When vehicle speed falls below about 40 km/h (25 mph). b. When vehicle stability control is activated. c. When vehicle speed drops 16 km/h (10 mph) below the preset speed. 177
