{ CAUTION:
If you leave your cruise control on when you
are not using cruise, you might hit a button
and go into cruise when you do not want to.
You could be startled and even lose control.
Keep the cruise control switch off until you
want to use cruise control.
The cruise control lever is on the left side of the

The cruise control symbol along with the CRUISE
ACTIVE message appears on the display.
5. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal and release
the cruise control lever.

You may do one of the following:
• Turn the lever down to the SET-DECEL position
until the car slows down to the desired speed,
