Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Section 76 (Cruise Control System): Operation
When cruise control main switch is in ON position, system is ready to be engaged. Cruise control switch sets or adjusts desired speed. Cruise control switch contains SET/COAST and RESUME/ACCEL switches. System will not operate at speeds less than 25 MPH.
To engage system, accelerate to desired speed (greater than 25 MPH) and momentarily press SET/COAST switch. To disengage system, apply brakes or turn cruise control main switch off.
To accelerate from a set cruising speed, press and hold RESUME/ACCEL switch until vehicle is at desired speed, and then release RESUME/ACCEL switch. To decrease speed, press and hold SET/COAST switch until vehicle is at desired speed, and then release SET/COAST switch.
To resume previous set speed, momentarily press RESUME/ACCEL switch (previous set speed cannot be resumed if system was disengaged using cruise control main switch).
