Accelerating With the Speed Control
Operating
*
[SC06650(ALL)03/95]
If you want to speed up momentarily or regain
preset speed on hills when the speed control is
operating, simply accelerate using the accelerator
pedal. Manually accelerating to a higher speed
does not interfere with the speed control; when
you take your foot off the accelerator, the
vehicle returns to the set speed.
[SC06660(ALL)03/94]
You can also speed up by pressing the SET ACC
button. Release the button when the vehicle has
accelerated to the desired speed.
*
[SC06750(ALL)03/95]
NOTE: If your vehicle has a 5-speed manual
transaxle, you may want to drive in 4
(Fourth) gear in mountainous areas or
at high altitudes to improve speed
control performance.
[SC06800(ALL)05/95]
NOTE: When driving uphill, especially with a
heavy load, significant speed drops
may occur. If the speed drops more
than 8 to 14 mph (15-25 km/h) the
automatic speed control will, by
design, be cancelled. You may need to
control your speed manually while
driving up steep grades in order to
maintain the selected speed.

Using the Automatic Memory Load feature
*
[AS03801(ALL)04/95]
You can activate theAuto Memory Load
feature by pressing and holding the ªAUTO
PRESETº buttonfor approximately three
seconds. Auto Memory Load sets all memory
buttons in AM, FM1 and FM2 sequentially by
seeking out the first five strong stations for
the respective band and storing them in
memory buttons 1-5. (FM2 will store the
second set of strong stations from the FM
band.)
*
[AS03901(ALL)05/95]
With Auto Memory Store, you can
continually set strong stations into your
memory buttons without losing your existing
memory presets, which is especially handy
while traveling. Your radio will automatically
set your memory buttons to the strong local
stations so you don't have to continually
manually tune to existing stations.
*
[AS04001(ALL)05/95]
Activate Auto Memory Store by pushing the
ªAUTO PRESETº button once. Your radio
will set the first five strong stations of the
band you are in (AM, FM1 or FM2) into the
memory buttons. The display will show
ªAUTOº, then run through the frequencies,
stopping momentarily on the stations being
set into the memory buttons. The radio is
now in the ªAUTOº mode and this display
will show ªAUTOº each time a preset is
activated.
*
[AS04101(ALL)05/95]
NOTE: If there are fewer than five strong
stations in the frequency band, the
remaining unfilled buttons will store
the last strong station detected on the
band.

Memory Store is activated on that band, the
radio will store the next set of five strong
stations.

High water

[DR16300(ALL)01/95]
Do not drive through flooded areas unless you
are sure that the water is below the bottom of
the wheel rims.
*
[DR16400(ALL)04/94]
If you must drive through high water, drive
slowly. You may have limited traction or wet
brakes, so allow extra stopping distance because
your vehicle will not stop as quickly as usual.
*
[DR16500(ALL)01/95]
After you drive through the standing water,
apply your brakes gently several times as your
vehicle moves slowly. This helps to dry the
brakes.
*
[DR16600(ALL)03/95]
Driving With a Heavy Load
[DR16700(ALL)05/95]
There are limits to the amount of weight your
vehicle can carry. The total weight of your
vehicle, plus the weight of the passengers and
cargo, should never be more than the Gross
Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR). Also, the weight
that your vehicle carries over each axle should
never be more than the Gross Axle Weight
Rating (GAWR) for the respective axle.
*
[DR16800(ALL)07/93]
You can find your vehicle's GVWR and GAWR
on the Safety Compliance Certification Label on
the left door lock pillar.
*
[DR16900(ALL)01/95]
The weight limits of your vehicle's tires affect
the GVWR or GAWR limitations. Usage of
replacement tires with higher weight limit than
originals does not increase GVWR or GAWR.
Usage of lower capacity replacement tires may
lower GVWR and GAWR limitations.

[DR19300(ALL)01/95]
After determining this load, you must also make
sure that the total weight of your vehicle, plus
the load it carries, is less than its GVWR. Also,
make sure that the weight your vehicle carries
over each axle is less than the GAWR for the
respective axle.
*
[DR19500(ALL)01/95]
If your vehicle exceeds the GVWR, remove cargo
from your vehicle accordingly. If your vehicle
exceeds the GAWR for either axle, shift the load
or remove cargo accordingly.
*
[DR19550(ALL)05/95]
RWARNING
Improper distribution of your vehicle's
load or carrying weight in excess of the
amount shown on the tire decal can cause
rapid tire wear or loss of vehicle control.

*
[HS06500(ALL)06/95]
Before you export your vehicle to a foreign
country, contact the appropriate foreign embassy
or consulate to make sure local regulations do
not prevent you from registering your vehicle.
