recommended on winding, snow covered
or slippery roads or in heavy traffic
conditions where a constant speed cannot be
maintained.
1. Start engine, depress main control switch to
actuate cruise control system. Accelerate to
approximately 50 km/h, (30 mph), operate
’set/acc’ switch, immediately release switch,
remove foot from accelerator pedal. Vehicle
should maintain speed at which ’set/acc’ switch
was operated.
2. Operate ’set/acc’ switch and hold at that
position, vehicle should accelerate smoothly until
switch is released. Vehicle should now maintain
new speed at which ’set/acc’ switch was
released.
3. Momentarily touch and release ’set/acc’ switch,
vehicle speed should increase 1.6 km/h (1 mph)
for each touch. Note that five touches will
increase speed 8 km/h (5 mph).
4. Apply ’res/decel’ switch while vehicle is in cruise
control mode, cruise control should disengage.
Slow to approximately 55 km/h, (35 mph)
operate ’res/decel’ switch, immediately release
switch and remove foot from accelerator, vehicle
should smoothly accelerate to previously set
speed. Increase speed using accelerator pedal,
release pedal, vehicle should return to previously
set speed.
5. Operate brake pedal, cruise control system
should immediately disengage returning vehicle
