Cruise control can be dangerous where you
can’t drive safely at a steady speed. So,
don’t use your cruise control on winding
roads or in heavy traffic.

D

Cruise control can be dangerous on
slippery roads. On such roads, fast changes
in tire traction can cause needless wheel
spinning, and you could lose control. 
Don’t use cruise control on slippery roads.

If your vehicle is in cruise control when the optional
traction control system begins to limit wheel spin, 
the cruise control will automatically disengage. 
(See “Traction Control System” in the Index.) 
When road conditions allow you to safely use it again,
you may turn the cruise control back on.

CAUTION:

If you leave your cruise control switch on when
you’re not using cruise, you might hit a button

cruise control.

3. Press the SET/COAST button, the CRUISE light on the

instrument panel cluster will illuminate. (The button is
located on the bottom right of the steering wheel.)
