Cruise Control System Description




Cruise Control System Description

This vehicle is equipped with the Electro-Motor Cruise System. This system is designed to automatically maintain a desired vehicle speed under normal driving conditions. The system has six modes:





* CRUISE
* COAST
* RESUME SPEED
* ACCELERATE
* TAP UP
* TAP DOWN

The cruise control system consists of the following components:

* The multifunction lever
* The brake release switch

The controller responds to signals from the multifunction switch, located on the turn signal lever.

The cruise control module contains a low speed limit that prevents the system from engaging at speeds lower than about 40 km/h (25 mph).

When the brake pedal is depressed, a release switch, mounted to the brake pedal bracket, disengages the system. The throttle then returns to the idle position.
