3. Push in the SET button at the end of the turn signal

lever and release it. The CRUISE light on the
instrument panel cluster will come on.

4. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal.

Resuming a Set Speed

Setting the cruise control at a desired speed and then
applying the brake will end the cruise control function.

Once you are going about 25 mph (40 km/h) or
more, you can move the cruise control switch from ON
to R/A (Resume/Accelerate) briefly to reset. This
returns you to your desired preset speed.

Remember, if you hold the switch at R/A, the vehicle
will accelerate until you release the switch or apply the
brake. So unless you want to go faster, do not hold
the switch at R/A.

Increasing Speed While Using Cruise
Control

There are two ways to go to a higher speed:

Use the accelerator pedal to go to a higher speed.
Push the SET button at the end of the lever, then
release the button and the accelerator pedal.
You will now cruise at the higher speed.

Move the cruise switch from ON to R/A. Hold it
there until you reach a desired speed and then
release the switch. To increase your speed in very
small amounts, briefly move the switch to R/A,
then release it.

Each time you do this, your vehicle will go about 1 mph
(1.6 km/h) faster.

The accelerate feature will only work after you have set
the cruise control speed by pushing the SET button.
