Cruise Control
Cruise control lets a speed of about 40 km/h (25 mph)
or more be maintained without keeping your foot on
the accelerator. Cruise control does not work at speeds
below 40 km/h (25 mph).
{WARNING:
Cruise control can be dangerous where you
cannot drive safely at a steady speed. So, do not
use the cruise control on winding roads or in
heavy traffic.
Cruise control can be dangerous on slippery roads.
On such roads, fast changes in tire traction can
cause excessive wheel slip, and you could lose
control. Do not use cruise control on slippery roads.
Setting Cruise Control
{WARNING:
If you leave your cruise control on when you are
not using cruise, you might hit a button and go
into cruise when you do not want to. You could be
startled and even lose control. Keep the cruise
control switch off until you want to use cruise
control.
The cruise control buttons
are located on the steering
wheel.
I(On/Off):Press to turn the cruise control system
on and off.

conditions allow, the cruise control can be used again.
Resuming a Set Speed
If the cruise control is set at a desired speed and then
the brakes are applied, the cruise control is disengaged.

40 km/h (25 mph) or more, briefly press the RES+.
The vehicle returns to the previously set speed
and stays there.

using cruise control:
•If the cruise control system is already engaged,
press and hold the RES+ button until the desired
speed is reached, then release it.
•To increase the vehicle speed in small amounts,
briefly press the RES+ and then release it. Each
time this is done, the vehicle goes about 1.6 km/h
(1 mph) faster.
