Heated outside mirrors

(if equipped)

Both mirrors are heated
automatically to remove ice, mist
and fog when the rear window
defrost is activated.

Do not remove ice from the
mirrors with a scraper or
attempt to readjust the mirror
glass if it is frozen in place.
These actions could cause damage to the glass and mirrors.

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 ACC control and
release it.

4. Take your foot off the accelerator
pedal.

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 shift into “L” gear and/or apply the brakes to reduce the speed.
