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.
Principles of Operation
Pressing and releasing the ON switch turns the speed control system on. Pressing and releasing the SET/ACCEL or COAST switch while the vehicle is traveling at the desired speed activates the speed control system.
Tapping the ACCEL or the COAST switch while in the set mode, respectively, increases or decreases the maintained vehicle speed by 1.6 km/h (1 mph) per tap. If the respective button is pressed and held, the vehicle speed continues to accelerate or decelerate until the button is released.
Pressing and releasing the OFF switch, or switching the ignition switch to the OFF position, turns the speed control system off. Applying the brake pedal puts the speed control system in the STANDBY mode. Pressing the RESUME button when the speed control system is in the STANDBY mode causes the vehicle to accelerate to the last set speed. The resume feature does not function if the OFF button is pressed, the ignition switch is in the OFF position or if the current vehicle speed is less than the minimum operational speed.
