To Accelerate For Passing

Press the accelerator as you would normally. When the

pedal is released, the vehicle will return to the set speed.
Using Electronic Speed Control On Hills
The transmission may downshift on hills to maintain the

vehicle set speed.
NOTE:

The Electronic Speed Control system maintains

speed up and down hills. A slight speed change on

moderate hills is normal.
On steep hills, a greater speed loss or gain may occur so

it may be preferable to drive without Electronic Speed

Control.

WARNING!

Electronic Speed Control can be dangerous where the
system cannot maintain a constant speed. Your ve-
hicle could go too fast for the conditions, and you
could lose control and have an accident. Do not use
Electronic Speed Control in heavy traffic or on roads
that are winding, icy, snow-covered or slippery.

IF EQUIPPED

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) increases the driving

convenience provided by cruise control while traveling

on highways and major roadways. However, it is not a

safety system and not designed to prevent collisions.

Electronic Speed Control function performs differently.
