STARTING AND DRIVING
Transmission
See page 2, item 2, 6 and 16.
Apply the brake pedal, then
rotate the gear selector from
the P position. Maintain
brake pressure until a gear
is selected.
Select P before switching
off the engine. However, if
the engine is switched off
with R, D or S selected, the
selector will automatically
return to P while retracting.
To return to automatic operation, pull and hold the
right (upshift) paddle for 2 seconds or rotate the gear
selector from S to D position.
Operating note
If the engine is switched off with N selected, automatic
selection of P is delayed for 10 minutes. DO NOT use
this feature to enable towing of the vehicle. Refer to
Vehicle recovery in the Owner’s Handbook.
Cruise control and Forward alert
Setting Cruise control speed
1. Use to set the cruise speed or to increase/decrease
speed while Cruise control is operating.
2. Resumes the set speed after a cancellation.
3. Press to cancel but retain the set speed in memory.
Cruise control will also cancel if the brake pedal is
pressed or if the vehicle’s speed falls below 18 mph (30
km/h).
Adaptive cruise control (ACC)
This enhancement uses a front mounted radar to monitor
traffic ahead. ACC can be programed to maintain a set
gap to the vehicle ahead. If the vehicle ahead is traveling
slower than the set speed, your vehicle will automatically
slow down and then maintain the set gap until the road
ahead clears. At that point, your vehicle will accelerate to
the set speed.
