SPEED CONTROL

With speed control set, you can maintain a speed of 30 mph (48 km/h)
or more without keeping your foot on the accelerator pedal. Speed
control does not work at speeds below 30 mph (48 km/h).

Do not use the speed control in heavy traffic or on roads that
are winding, slippery or unpaved.

Setting speed control

The controls for using your speed
control are located on the steering
wheel for your convenience.

1. Press the ON control and release
it.

2. Accelerate to the desired speed.

3. Press the SET + control and
release it.

4. Take your foot off the accelerator
pedal.

5. The indicator

light on the

instrument cluster will turn on.

Note:
• Vehicle speed may vary momentarily when driving up and down a

steep hill.

• If the vehicle speed increases above the set speed on a downhill, you

may want to apply the brakes to reduce the speed.

• If the vehicle speed decreases more than 10 mph (16 km/h) below

your set speed on an uphill, your speed control will disengage.
