Changing the set speed

There are three ways to change the set

speed:
1. Accelerate or decelerate to the desired

speed then press the SET (+) button.

2. Increase or decrease the speed by

pressing and holding either SET (+)

or (–) until the desired speed is

obtained, then release the switch.

3. Increase or decrease the speed in steps

of 2 km/h by briefly pressing either the

SET (+) or (–) until the desired speed is

obtained.

Resuming the set speed

If the vehicle is accelerated above the set

speed, then the set speed will be resumed

when the accelerator pedal is released.
If CANCEL is pressed, or the brake or

clutch pedal is pressed, the cruise control

will disengage but the set speed memory

will be retained. Press RESUME and the

vehicle will return to the set speed.

speeds below

40 km/h.

switch has been pressed to switch the

and intends to return to it.

set speed when a low gear is
selected as excessive engine
speeds will occur.
