RESUME/ACCEL Switch

The Resume/Accel switch is located on the right side of the steering wheel.
The Resume/Accel switch has the following two positions:
^ Normal
^ Depressed

Resume Position
IMPORTANT: The Resume will not function unless the Set button has been previously set on the current ignition cycle.

The Resume switch returns the cruise control operation to the last speed setting by momentarily depressing the switch after braking. If you hold the switch in the RESUME/ACCEL position for more than one second, the system reverts to the Accel mode.

Accel Position
In order to accelerate the vehicle, perform the following steps.
1. Verify that the cruise control On/Off switch is in the ON position.
2. Ensure that the vehicle is above the low speed lockout which is approximately 40 km/h (25 mph).
3. Press the Resume switch.
4. Hold the Resume switch until the vehicle reaches the desired speed.
5. Release the Resume switch.
The speed the vehicle has accelerated to becomes the new cruise speed when you release the Resume/Accel switch.
