▼Activation/Deactivation
WA R N I N G
Always turn
off the cruise control system
when it is not in use:
Leaving the cruise control system in an

control is not in use is dangerous as the
cruise control could unexpectedly activate
if the activation button is accidentally
pressed, and result in loss of vehicle control
and an accident.
NOTE
When the ignition is switched OFF, the
system status before it was turned off is
maintained. For example, if the ignition is
switched OFF with the cruise control
system operable, the system will be
operable when the ignition is switched ON
the next time.

standby indication (white) turns on.
2. Accelerate to the desired speed, which
must be more than 25 km/h (16 mph).
3. Adjust the system to the desired vehicle speed using the accelerator
pedal. Press the RES switch up (SET+)
or down (SET-) to start cruise control.
The cruise control indication (green) in
the instrument cluster turns on at the
same time. Quickly release the switch
when the cruise control indication
(green) turns on.
NOTE
If the RES switch is operated up (SET+)
or down (SET-) while the vehicle speed
is between 25 km/h (16 mph) and 30
km/h (19 mph), the set speed is set to 30
km/h (19 mph).

canceled (such as by applying the brake
pedal) and the system is still activated, the

position.
When the cruise control system is
temporarily canceled by even one of the
applicable cancel conditions, the speed
cannot be re-set.
(Automatic transmission)
The cruise control cannot be canceled
while driving in manual mode (selector
lever shifted from D to M position).
