Cruise Control Switch

The Off/On/Resume/Accel Switch has three positions. This switch turns the cruise control system ON and OFF and also returns cruise control operation to the last speed setting when MOMENTARILY moved towards the R/A position after braking. If the slider is held in the R/A position for more than one second, the system reverts to the Accel mode. To accelerate the vehicle, move the slider switch to the R/A position and hold it there until the vehicle reaches the desired increased speed. When the slider switch is released, the speed the vehicle accelerated to becomes the new cruise speed. In order to use the Accel mode, the cruise OFF/ON/Resume/Accel switch must be in the "ON" position and the vehicle must be above the low speed lockout which is approximately 40 km/h (25 mph). The slide switch may also be used to "tap-up" vehicle speed. In order to do this, the cruise must be engaged and operating. "Tapping-up" is done by quickly pressing the slide switch toward the R/A position and quickly releasing it, or "tap" the level.

Do not hold the lever in the R/A position or the system will revert to the Accel mode. "Tap-up" is a function in which cruise speed can he increased by .62 km/h (1 mph) increments (one tap = I mph increase) up to ten times, after 10 times the system must be reset to a new speed to continue this function.

IMPORTANT
Unless the SET button has been previously set on the current ignition cycle, R/A will not function.
