I

(On/Off): Press to turn the cruise control system

on and off.

RES+ (Resume): Press RES+ to resume a set speed
and to accelerate the speed.

SET

(Set): Press SET– to set a speed and to

decrease the speed.

To set a speed do the following:

1. Press

I

to turn cruise control on. The indicator

light on the button comes on.

2. Get up to the desired speed.

3. Press the SET

and release it. The cruise symbol

displays in the instrument panel cluster to show the
system is engaged.

4. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal.

When the brakes are applied, the cruise control
shuts off.

If the vehicle is in cruise control and the Traction
Control System (TCS) begins to limit wheel spin, the
cruise control automatically disengages. See Traction
Control System (TCS)
on page 4-6. When road
conditions allow, the cruise control can be used again.

Resuming a Set Speed

Suppose you set your cruise control at a desired
speed and then you apply the brakes. This disengages
the cruise control. The cruise symbol in the instrument
panel cluster also goes out indicating cruise is no longer
engaged. To return to your previously set speed, you do
not need to go through the set process again. Once at a
speed of about 25 mph (40 km/h) or more, briefly press
the RES+.

This takes the vehicle back up to the previously chosen
speed and stays there.

Increasing Speed While Using Cruise
Control

There are two ways to go to a higher speed.

If the cruise control system is already engaged,
press the RES+. Hold it there until the desired
speed is reached and then release the button.

To increase the vehicle speed in very small
amounts, briefly press the RES+ and then release
it. Each time this is done, the vehicle goes about
1 mph (1.6 km/h) faster.
