qActivation/Deactivation

To activate the system, press the ON switch.

To deactivate the system, press the OFF switch.

WARNING

Always turn off the cruise control system when it is not in use:

Leaving the cruise control system in an activation-ready state while the cruise control is not in use is dangerous as the cruise control could unexpectedly activate if the activation button is accidentally pressed, and result in loss of vehicle control and an accident.

2.Accelerate to the desired speed, which must be more than 30 km/h (19 mph).

3.Set the cruise control by pressing the cruise control SET /SET - switch up or down at the desired speed. The cruise control is set at the moment the cruise control SET /SET - switch is pressed up or down. Release the accelerator pedal simultaneously.

NOTE

lRelease the cruise control switch at the desired speed, otherwise the speed will continue increasing while the switch is pressed up, and continue decreasing while it is pressed down (except when the

accelerator pedal is depressed).

lOn a steep grade, the vehicle may momentarily slow down while ascending,

or speed up while descending.

lCruise control will turn off if the vehicle speed decreases below 25 km/h (16 mph) when cruise is activated, such as when climbing a steep grade.
