To Resume Cruising Speed at More
Than 25 km/h (16 mph)

If the cruise control system temporarily
canceled (such as by applying the brake
pedal) and the system is still activated, the
most recent set speed will automatically
resume when the RESUME/  switch is
pressed.
If vehicle speed is below 25 km/h (16
mph), increase the vehicle speed up to 25
km/h (16 mph) or more and press the
RESUME/  switch.

To Temporarily Cancel

To temporarily cancel the system, use one
of these methods:



Slightly depress the brake pedal.



(Manual transmission)

Depress the clutch pedal.



Press the OFF/CANCEL switch.

If the RESUME/  switch is pressed when
the vehicle speed is 25 km/h (16 mph) or
higher, the system reverts to the previously
set speed.

NOTE



If any of the following conditions occur,
the cruise control system is temporarily
canceled.



The parking brake is applied.



(Automatic transmission)

The selector lever is in the P or N
position.



(Manual transmission)

The shift lever is in the neutral
position.



When the cruise control system is
temporarily canceled by even one of the
applicable cancel conditions, the speed
cannot be re-set.



(Automatic transmission)

The cruise control cannot be cancelled
while driving in manual mode (selector
lever shifted from D to M position).
Therefore, engine braking will not be
applied even if the transmission is
shifted down to a lower gear. If
deceleration is required, lower the set
speed or depress the brake pedal.
