9-34 Driving and Operating
Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well cruise control works on
hills depends on the vehicle speed,
load, and the steepness of the hills.
When going up steep hills, you
might have to step on the
accelerator pedal to maintain your
speed.
While going downhill:
.Vehicles with a 4-speed
automatic transmission may
need to have the brakes applied
or the transmission shifted to a
lower gear to help maintain
driver selected speed.
.Vehicles with a 6-speed
automatic transmission have
Cruise Grade Braking to help
maintain driver selected speed.
Cruise Grade Braking is enabled
when the vehicle is started and
cruise control is active. It is not
enabled in Range Selection Mode.
It assists in maintaining driver
selected speed when driving on downhill grades by using the engine
and transmission to slow the
vehicle.
To disable and enable Cruise Grade
Braking for the current ignition key
cycle, press and hold the Tow/Haul
button for three seconds. A DIC
message displays. See
Transmission Messages on
page 5-36.
When the brakes are manually
applied the cruise control is
disengaged.
Ending Cruise Control
There are four ways to end cruise
control:
.Step lightly on the brake pedal.
.Press[.
.Shift the transmission to
N (Neutral).
.To turn off cruise control,
press
I.
Erasing Speed Memory

erased from memory if
Iis
pressed or if the vehicle is
turned off.
