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.
