CRUISE CONTROL (if so equipped)
Starting and driving5-41

WARNING
Do not use the cruise control when driv-
ing under the following conditions:
∙ When it is not possible to keep thevehicle at a set speed.
∙ In heavy traffic or in traffic that varies in speed.
∙ On winding or hilly roads.
∙ On slippery roads (rain, snow, ice, etc.).
∙ In very windy areas.
Doing so could cause a loss of vehicle
control and result in an accident.
CRUISE CONTROL OPERATIONS
The cruise control allows driving at a speed
between 25 - 89 mph (40 - 144 km/h) with-
out keeping your foot on the accelerator
pedal.
To turn on the cruise control, push the
ON/OFF
switch on. Theindicator
light in the instrument panel will illuminate.
To set cruising speed, accelerate the ve-
hicle to the desired speed, push the SET–
switch and release it. Take your foot off the
accelerator pedal. Your vehicle maintains
the set speed. ∙
To pass another vehicle, depress the
accelerator pedal. When you release the
pedal, the vehicle returns to the previ-
ously set speed.
∙ The vehicle may not maintain the set speed when going up or down steep
hills. If this happens, drive without the
cruise control.
To cancel the preset speed, use one of the
following three methods:
∙ Push the CANCEL switch.
∙ Tap the brake pedal.
∙ Push the ON/OFF
switch off.
The
indicator light in the instru-
ment panel goes out.
The cruise control is automatically can-
celed if:
∙ You depress the brake pedal while pushing the RES+ or SET– switch. The
preset speed is deleted from memory.
∙ The vehicle slows down more than 8 mph (13 km/h) below the set speed.
∙ You move the shif t lever to N (Neutral). To reset at a faster cruising speed,
use
one of the following three methods:
∙ Depress the accelerator pedal. When the vehicle attains the desired speed,
push and release the SET– switch.
∙ Push and hold the RES+ switch. When the vehicle attains the speed you desire,
release the switch.
∙ Push and release the RES+ switch. Each time you do this, the set speed in-
creases by about 1 mph (1.6 km/h).
To reset at a slower cruising speed, use
one of the following three methods:
∙ Lightly tap the brake pedal. When the vehicle attains the desired speed, push
the SET– switch and release it.
∙ Push and hold the SET– switch. Release the switch when the vehicle slows to
the desired speed.
∙ Push and release the SET– switch. Each time you do this, the set speed de-
creases by about 1 mph (1.6 km/h).
To resume the preset speed, push and
release the RES+ switch. The vehicle re-
turns to the last set cruising speed when
the vehicle speed is over 25 mph (40 km/h).
5-42Starting and driving

To turn off the cruise control,use one of
the following three methods:
∙ Push the CANCEL switch.
∙ Tap the brake pedal.
∙ Push the ON/OFF
switch off.
The
indicator light in the instru-
ment panel goes out.
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the ICC sys-
tem could result in serious injury or
death.
∙ The ICC system is only an aid to assist the driver and is not a collision warn-
ing or avoidance device. It is the driv-
er’s responsibility to stay alert, drive
safely, and be in control of the vehicle
at all times.
∙ Always observe posted speed limits and do not set the speed over them.
∙ Always drive carefully and attentively when using the ICC system. Read and
understand the Owner’s Manual thor-
oughly before using the ICC system.
To avoid serious injury or death, do
not rely on the system to prevent ac-
cidents or to control the vehicle’s
speed in emergency situations. Do
not use the ICC system except in ap-
propriate road and traffic conditions. The ICC system is intended to enhance the
operation of the vehicle when following a
vehicle traveling in the same lane and di-
rection.
The ICC system uses a radar sensor
A
located on the front of the vehicle to detect
vehicles traveling ahead.
If the radar sensor detects a slower moving
vehicle ahead, the system will reduce the
vehicle speed so that your vehicle follows
the vehicle in front at the selected distance.
The detection range of the sensor is ap-
proximately 390 f t (120 m) ahead.
