To Set Speed

1. Activate the cruise control system by

pressing the ON switch. The cruise
main indication (white) is displayed.

2. Accelerate to the desired speed, which

must be more than 25 km/h (16 mph).

3. Set the cruise control by pressing the

SET/  switch at the desired speed. The
cruise control is set at the moment the
SET/  switch is pressed. Release the
accelerator pedal simultaneously. The
cruise set indication (white) is
displayed and the cruise set indicator
light (green) turns on.

NOTE



The cruise control speed setting cannot
be performed under the following
conditions:



(Automatic transaxle)

The selector lever is in the P or N
position.



(Manual transaxle)

The shift lever is in the neutral
position.



The parking brake is applied.



Release the SET/  or RES/  switch at
the desired speed, otherwise the speed
will continue increasing while the RES/

 switch is pressed and held, and

continue decreasing while the SET/
switch is pressed and held (except when
the accelerator pedal is depressed).



On a steep grade, the vehicle may
momentarily slow down while
ascending, or speed up while
descending.



The cruise control will cancel if the
vehicle speed decreases below 21 km/h
(13 mph) when climbing a steep grade.



The cruise control may cancel at about
15 km/h (9 mph) below the preset speed
such as when climbing a long, steep
grade.

To Increase Cruising Speed

Follow either of these procedures.

To increase speed using cruise control

Multiple operations will increase the
preset speed according to the number of
times it is operated.

switch operation

Instrument cluster display for vehicle
speed indicated in km/h: 1 km/h (0.6 mph)

To increase speed using accelerator
pedal

Depress the accelerator pedal to accelerate
to the desired speed. Press the SET/
