PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION

Cruise control lets you maintain a set speed without keeping your foot
on the accelerator pedal.

USING CRUISE CONTROL

WARNING: Do not use cruise control in heavy traffic or on
roads that are winding, slippery or unpaved.

Note: Vehicle speed may vary momentarily when driving up or down a
steep hill. Apply the brakes if your vehicle speed increases above the set
speed while driving downhill.
Note: Cruise control will disengage if your vehicle speed decreases more
than 10 mph (16 km/h) below your set speed while driving uphill.

The cruise controls are located on
the steering wheel.

Switching Cruise Control On

Press the ON control up and release.

The indicator will appear in the instrument cluster.

Setting a Speed

1. Accelerate to the desired speed.
2. Press the SET control upward and release.
3. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal.
The indicator will change colors in the instrument cluster.
Changing the Set Speed

Note: If you accelerate by pressing the accelerator pedal, the set speed
will not change. When you release the accelerator pedal, you will return
to the speed that you previously set.
