P
To
Reduce Speed While Using Cruise
Control
There are two ways to reduce your speed
while using cruise control:
1.
Push
in
the button
at
the end
of
the
lever
until
you reach the lower speed
you want, then release it.
2.
To
slow down
in
very small amounts,
push
the button for less than half a
second. Each time you do this, you’ll
go
1
mph
(1.6
km/h) slower.
Passing Another Vehicle While Using
Cruise Control
Use the accelerator pedal to increase your
speed. When you take your foot off the
pedal, your vehicle
will
slow down to the
Cruise Control speed you set earlier.
Using Cruise Control
on
Hills
How well your Cruise Control
will
work
on hills depends upon your speed, load,
and the steepness
of
the hills. When going
up steep hills, you may have
to
step on
the accelerator pedal to maintain your
speed. When going downhill, you may
have to brake or shift
to
a lower gear
to
keep your speed down. Of course,
applying the brake takes you out of
Cruise Control. Many drivers find this
to
be
too
much trouble and don’t use Cruise
Control on steep hills.
