Speed Control (If equipped)

[SC08800( ALL)06/95]
If your vehicle has speed control, you can
automatically maintain a constant speed at or
above 30 mph (50 km/h).
*
[SC08900( ALL)06/95]
Use of radio transmitting equipment that is not
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) or
in Canada the Canadian Radio and
Telecommunications Commission (CRTC)
approved may cause the speed control to
malfunction. Therefore, use only properly
installed FCC (CRTC in Canada) approved radio
transmitting equipment in your vehicle.
[SC09000(M )05/95]
NOTE: For vehicles equipped with 5-speed
manual transmission, it may be
preferable to drive in 4 (Fourth) gear in
mountainous areas or at high altitude
to improve speed control performance.
[SC09100(M )12/94]
NOTE: When driving in hilly terrain, at high
elevations, or when pulling a trailer, it
may be desirable to drive with the
transmission in the Overdrive off
mode. This can be done by depressing
the Transmission Control Switch (O/D)
to the right of the transmission gear
selection lever. Driving in this mode
prevents the transmission from shifting
excessively when ascending grades, and
helps maintain speed when going
down steep hills.
*
[SC09200( ALL)09/95]
NOTE: Do not shift to N (Neutral) when using
the speed control. This will cause the
engine to overspeed.
[SC09250( ALL)12/94]
When driving uphill, especially with a heavy
load, significant speed drops may occur. If the
speed drops more than 10 mph (16 km/h) the
automatic speed control will, by design, be
suspended. Some vehicles may require

In the event a transmitter is lost, return the
remaining transmitters to your dealer for
reprogramming of your remote entry system.
This is necessary to prevent further unauthorized
use of the lost transmitter.
*
[FV08900(MBC )02/95]
