Driving your vehicle

The cruise control system allows you to
program the vehicle to maintain a con-
stant speed without pressing the acceler-
ator pedal.
This system is designed to function
above approximately 25 mph (40 km/h).

NOTICE

During normal cruise control operation,

when the SET switch is activated or

reactivated after applying the brakes,

the cruise control will energize after

approximately 3 seconds. This delay is

normal.

To set cruise control speed:

1. Push the CRUISE ON-OFF button on

the steering wheel to turn the system
on. The CRUISE indicator light in the
instrument cluster will illuminate.

2. Accelerate to the desired speed, which

must be more than 25 mph (40 km/h).

CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)

WARNING

• If the cruise control is left on,

(CRUISE indicator light in the
instrument cluster illuminated)
the cruise control can be
switched on accidentally. Keep
the cruise control system off
(CRUISE indicator light OFF)
when the cruise control is not in
use, to avoid inadvertently set-
ting a speed.

• Use the cruise control system

only when traveling on open
highways in good weather.

• Do not use the cruise control

when it may not be safe to keep
the car at a constant speed, for
instance, driving in heavy or
varying traffic, or on slippery
(rainy, icy or snow-covered) or
winding roads or over 6% up-hill
or down-hill roads.

(Continued)

(Continued)
• Pay particular attention to the

driving conditions whenever
using the cruise control system.

• During cruise-speed driving of a

manual transaxle vehicle, do not
shift into neutral without
depressing the clutch pedal,
since the engine will be over-
revved. If this happens, depress
the clutch pedal or release the
cruise control ON/OFF switch.
