until the vehicle is traveling at or
above 48 km/h (30 mph).
Do not use the speed control in heavy traffic or on roads that
are winding, slippery, or unpaved.
Do not shift the gearshift lever into N (Neutral) with the speed
control on.

• Turn off the vehicle ignition.
Once speed control is switched off, the previously programmed set speed
will be erased.
To set a speed
• Press SET+. For speed control to
operate, the speed control must

If you drive up or down a steep hill, your vehicle speed may vary
momentarily slower or faster than the set speed. This is normal.
Speed control cannot reduce the vehicle speed if it increases above the
set speed on a downhill. If your vehicle speed is faster than the set
speed while driving on a downhill, you may want to shift to the next
lower gear or apply the brakes to reduce your vehicle speed.
