Resuming a Set Speed
If the cruise control is set at a desired speed and then
the brake is applied, this shuts off the cruise control.
But it does not need to be reset.
Once the vehicle is going about 25 mph (40 km/h) or
more, move the cruise control switch briefly from
R to S .
The vehicle returns to the previously chosen speed
and stays there.
If the switch is held on resume/accelerate, the vehicle
keeps going faster until the switch is released or
the brakes are applied. So unless you want the vehicle
to go faster, do not hold the switch at resume/accelerate.
Increasing Speed While Using Cruise
Control
There are two ways to go to a higher speed:
• Use the accelerator pedal to get to the desired
speed. Press
T at the end of the lever, then
release the button and the accelerator pedal.
The vehicle will now cruise at the higher speed.
• Move the cruise switch from R to S . Hold it there until
the vehicle reaches the desired speed and then
release the switch. To increase the vehicle speed in
small amounts, move the switch briefly to resume/
accelerate. Each time this is done, the vehicle goes
about 1 mph (1.6 km/h) faster.
Reducing Speed While Using Cruise
Control
Press T at the end of the lever until the desired
speed is reached, then release it. Each time this is done,
the vehicle goes about 1 mph (1.6 km/h) slower.
Passing Another Vehicle While Using
Cruise Control
Use the accelerator pedal to increase the vehicle speed.
When you take your foot off the pedal, the vehicle will
slow down to the cruise control speed set earlier.
Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well the cruise control works on hills depends upon
the vehicle speed, load and the steepness of the hills.
When going up steep hills, you may want 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. When the brakes are
applied the cruise control will disengage.
