WARNING: The system does not control speed in low traction conditions or extremely steep slopes. The system is designed to be an aid and does not relieve you of your responsibility to drive with due care and attention. Failure to follow this instruction could result in personal injury.
WARNING: The system does not replace the parking brake. When you leave your vehicle, always apply the parking brake and shift the transmission into park (P) for automatic transmission or first gear for manual transmission.Trail control lets you focus on steering during low-speed and off-road use by controlling your vehicle's acceleration and braking.
You can use trail control under the following speeds:
• 20 mph (31 km/h) in two-wheel or four-wheel drive high range.
• 10 mph (15 km/h) in four-wheel drive low range.
• 5 mph (8 km/h) in reverse (R).
You may hear a noise from the anti-lock brake system pump motor when you use the system. This is normal.
Press the button.
The system switches off if you press the button again or exceed 42 mph (68 km/h).
Note: The buttons are on the steering wheel.
Drive to the speed you prefer.
Press the button to increase the current set speed.
Press the button to decrease the current set speed.
Note: The indicator changes color.
You can adjust the set speed in small or large increments. Press the toggle button upward or downward once to adjust the set speed in small increments. Press and hold the toggle button upward or downward to adjust the set speed in large increments.
You can also adjust the set speed by braking.
Note: Pressing the brake pedal does not switch off the system.
Press the button.
