You can increase the set cruising
speed in any of these ways:

When climbing a steep hill, the
automatic transmission may
downshift to hold the set speed.

Press and release the SET/
DECEL button on the steering
wheel. The CRUISE CONTROL
light on the instrument panel
comes on to show the system is
now activated.

The cruise control may not hold the
set speed when you are going up and
down hills. If your speed increases
going down a hill, use the brakes to
slow down to the desired speed. This
will cancel the cruise control. To
resume the set speed, press the
RES/ACCEL button. The CRUISE
CONTROL light on the instrument
panel comes on.

Press and hold the RES/ACCEL
button. The vehicle will accelerate.
When you reach the desired
cruising speed, release the button.

To increase your speed in very
small amounts, tap the RES/
ACCEL button repeatedly. Each
time you do this, your vehicle will
speed up about 1 mph (1.6 km/h).

Push on the accelerator pedal.
Accelerate to the desired cruising
speed and press the SET/DECEL
button.
