Using Cruise Control on Hills

How well your cruise control will work on hills depends
upon your speed, load and the steepness of the hills.
When going up a steep hill, you may have to step on the
accelerator pedal to maintain your speed. When going
downhill, you may have to brake or shift to a lower gear
to keep your speed down. Of course, applying the brake
or clutch pedal takes you out of cruise control. Many
drivers find this to be too much trouble and don’t use
cruise control on steep hills.

Ending Cruise Control

There are several ways to turn off the cruise control:
D step lightly on the brake pedal, or push the clutch

pedal, if you have a manual transaxle, or

D move the cruise switch to OFF.

Erasing Cruise Speed Memory

When you turn off the cruise control or the ignition,
your cruise control set speed memory is erased.

Exterior Lamps

The band on the turn signal/multifunction lever controls
your vehicle’s lamps.
