Cruise Control Systems: Operation: Notes

Cruise control system functions can be performed from cruise control switch, located on lever on right side of steering column. Pressing cruise ON-OFF (main) switch at end of lever turns system on. CRUISE indicator light in instrument cluster comes on when desired cruising speed is set. To set desired speed, move control lever downward in SET/COAST direction and release it. Desired speed should be maintained. Press cruise ON-OFF (main) switch again to turn cruise control system off.

Cancel set speed by moving cruise control lever in CANCEL direction, pressing brake pedal, or pressing clutch pedal (M/T) or placing shift lever in Neutral (A/T). If vehicle speed drops to less than 25 MPH, set speed will automatically cancel. If vehicle speed decreases 10 MPH less than set speed, set speed will also cancel. If cruise control ECU detects a system malfunction, set speed will automatically cancel and CRUISE indicator light will flash several times.

Moving cruise control lever in RES/ACC (resume/accelerate) direction allows vehicle to return to speed set before cancellation. Holding cruise control lever in RES/ACC (resume/accelerate) direction gradually increases vehicle speed. Holding cruise control lever in SET/COAST direction gradually decreases vehicle speed.
