ELECTRONIC SPEED CONTROL — IF EQUIPPED
The control buttons for the Electronic Speed Control are located on the steering wheel. When engaged, the Elec- tronic Speed Control takes over the accelerator operation at speeds greater than 25 mph (40 km/h).
Electronic Speed Control Buttons
1 — Resume 4 — Set 2 — Cancel 5 — On/Off 3 — Decel
NOTE: In order to ensure proper operation, the Elec- tronic Speed Control System has been designed to shut down if multiple Speed Control functions are operated at the same time. If this occurs, the Electronic Speed Control System can be reactivated by pushing the Electronic Speed Control ON/OFF button and resetting the desired vehicle set speed.
To Activate
Push the ON/OFF button to the ON position. In the instrument cluster, the word “CRUISE” illuminates to indicate that the system is on.
To Set A Desired Speed
Turn the Electronic Speed Control ON. When the vehicle has reached the desired speed, press and release the SET button. Release the accelerator and the vehicle will operate at the selected speed.
To Deactivate
A soft tap on the brake pedal, normal braking, or pressing the CANCEL button will deactivate the speed control
without erasing the memory. Pushing the ON/OFF but- ton to the OFF position or turning off the ignition erases the memory.
WARNING! Leaving the Electronic Speed Control ON when not in use is dangerous. You could accidentally set the Electronic Speed Control to cause it to go faster than you want. You could lose control and have an acci- dent. Always leave the system OFF when you are not using it.
To Resume Speed
To resume a previously set speed, push and release the RESUME button. Resume can be used at any speed above 20 mph (32 km/h).
To Vary The Speed Setting
When the Electronic Speed Control System is ON, the speed can be increased by pressing and holding the RESUME/ACCEL button. When the button is released, a new set speed will be established. Tapping the ACCEL button once will result in a 1 mph (2 km/h) increase in set speed. Each subsequent tap of the button results in an increase of 1 mph (2 km/h). Tapping the DECEL button once will result in a speed decrease of 1 mph (2 km/h). Each time the button is tapped, speed will decrease. For example, tapping the button three times will decrease the speed by 3 mph (4.8 km/h). Tapping the DECEL button once will result in a 1 mph (2 km/h) decrease in set speed. Each subsequent tap of the button results in a decrease of 1 mph (2 km/h).
To Accelerate For Passing
Press the accelerator as you would normally. When the pedal is released, the vehicle will return to the set speed.
NOTE: When driving uphill, at elevations above 2,000 ft (610 m), or when the vehicle is heavily loaded (especially when towing) the vehicle may slow below the SET speed. If the vehicle speed drops below 25 mph (40 km/h), the Electronic Speed Control will automatically disengage. If this happens, you can push down on the accelerator pedal to maintain the desired speed. Vehicles equipped with an automatic transmission may exhibit several downshifts under the above conditions. To reduce the frequency of the downshifts and to im- prove vehicle performance, it is advisable to lock out OVERDRIVE by pressing the TOW/HAUL button lo- cated at the end of the shift lever.
WARNING! Electronic Speed Control can be dangerous where the system cannot maintain a constant speed. Your ve- hicle could go too fast for the conditions, and you could lose control and have an accident. Do not use Electronic Speed Control in heavy traffic or on roads that are winding, icy, snow-covered or slippery.
