Driving and operating 119
SET/-: Move the thumbwheel down to
set a speed and activate cruise
control or to make the vehicle
decelerate.
Setting cruise control
To set a speed:
1. Press m to turn cruise control on.
2. Get up to the desired speed.
3. Move the thumbwheel down
toward SET/− and release it. The
desired set speed briefly appears
in the instrument cluster.
4. Take foot off the accelerator
pedal.
When the brakes are applied, the
system deactivates the cruise control.
Resuming a set speed
If the cruise control is set at a desired
speed and then the brakes are
applied, the cruise control is
disengaged without erasing the set
speed from memory. Once the
vehicle speed is about 20 mph or
higher, move the thumbwheel up
toward RES/+ briefly and then
release it. The vehicle returns to the
previously set speed and stays there.
Increasing speed
If the cruise control system is already
activated:
■ Move the thumbwheel up toward
RES/+ and hold it until the vehicle
accelerates to the desired speed,
then release it.
■ To increase the speed in small
amounts, move the thumbwheel up
toward RES/+ briefly and then
release it. Each time this is done,
the vehicle goes about one mph
faster.
Reducing speed
If the cruise control system is already
activated:
■ Move the thumbwheel toward SET/
− and hold until the desired lower
speed is reached, then release it.
■ To slow down in very small
amounts, move the thumbwheel
toward SET/− briefly. Each time
this is done, the vehicle goes about
one mph slower.
Passing another vehicle
Use the accelerator pedal to increase
vehicle speed. When taking the foot
off the pedal, the vehicle will slow
down to the previously set cruise
control speed.
