Electronic speed control if equipped
When engaged, Electronic Speed Control takes over the accelerator operation at speeds greater than 25 mph (40 km/h). The Electronic Speed Control lever is located on the right side of the steering wheel.
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 (located in the end of the lever) once and the cruise indicator light (located in the mes- sage window of the cluster) will illuminate showing that the Electronic Speed Control system is on. To turn the Electronic Speed Control system off, push the ON/OFF button a second time and both the Electronic Speed Control system and indicator will turn off.

WARNING! Leaving the Electronic Speed Control system on when not in use is dangerous. You could accidently set the system or cause it to go faster than you want. You could lose control and have an accident. Always leave the Electronic Speed Control system off when you are not using it.
To Set A Desired Speed
Turn the Electronic Speed Control ON. When the vehicle has reached the desired speed, press the SET lever downward and then release. Lift your foot off the accel- erator and the vehicle will operate at the selected speed.
Deactivating Electronic Speed Control
A soft tap on the brake pedal or pulling the Electronic Speed Control lever (CANCEL) toward you will deacti- vate the Electronic Speed Control without erasing the set
speed memory. Pushing the ON/OFF button to the OFF position or turning OFF the ignition erases the set speed memory.
To Resume Speed
To resume a previously set speed, raise the Electronic Speed Control lever (RESUME ACCEL) upwards and release. Resume can be used at any speed above 30 mph (50 km/h).
Varying The Speed Setting
When the Electronic Speed Control is set, you can in- crease speed by pushing up and holding the RESUME ACCEL lever. If the lever is continually held in the RESUME ACCEL position, the set speed will continue to increase until the lever is released, then the new set speed will be established. Tapping the RESUME ACCEL lever once will result in a 1 mph (2 km/h) increase in set speed. Each subsequent tap of the lever results in an increase of 1 mph (2 km/h).
To decrease speed while the Electronic Speed Control is set, push down and hold the SET DECEL lever. If the lever is continually held in the SET DECEL position, the set speed will continue to decrease until the lever is released. Release the lever when the desired speed is reached, and the new set speed will be established. Tapping the SET DECEL lever once will result in a 1 mph (2 km/h) decrease in set speed. Each subsequent tap of the lever 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: The Electronic Speed Control system maintains speed up and down hills. A slight speed change on moderate hills is normal.
Your vehicle may experience a downshift (automatic transmissions only) while climbing uphill or descending downhill. This downshift is necessary to maintain vehicle set speed. On steep hills a greater speed loss or gain may occur so it may be preferable to drive without Electronic Speed Control.
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.
