Cruise Control (CC) (if equipped)

Cruise Control allows you to program the vehicle to maintain a constant speed without pressing the accelerator pedal.

This function is designed to function above approximately 30 km/h.

Warning
  • If Cruise Control is left on, (CRUISE indicator light in the instrument cluster illuminated) Cruise Control can be switched on accidentally. Keep Cruise Control off (CRUISE indicator light OFF) when Cruise Control is not in use, to avoid inadvertently setting a speed.

  • Use Cruise Control only when travelling on open highways in good weather.

  • Do not use Cruise Control when it may not be safe to keep the car at a constant speed, for instance, driving in heavy or varying traffic, or on slippery (rainy, icy or snow-covered) or winding roads or over 6% uphill or down-hill roads.

  • Pay particular attention to the driving conditions whenever using Cruise Control.

Caution

When operating Cruise Control in a manual transmission vehicle, do not shift into neutral without depressing the clutch pedal, since the engine will be over-revved. If this happens, depress the clutch pedal or release Cruise button.

Notice

During normal Cruise Control operation, when the SET- switch is activated or reactivated after applying the brakes, Cruise Control will energize after approximately 3 seconds. This delay is normal.

Notice

To activate Cruise Control, depress the brake pedal at least once after turning the ignition switch to the ON position or starting the engine. This is to check if the brake switch which is important part to cancel Cruise Control is in normal condition.
