Cruise Control operation (Except CUV)

Setting set speed

  1. Accelerate to the desired speed, which must be more than 30 km/h (20 mph).

  2. Press the Driving Assist button at the desired speed. The set speed and Cruise () indicator will illuminate on the cluster.

  3. Release the accelerator pedal.

    Vehicle speed will maintain the set speed even when the accelerator pedal is not depressed.

NOTICE

On a steep slope, the vehicle may slightly slow down or speed up whilst driving uphill or downhill.

Increasing set speed

  • Push the + switch up and release it immediately. The set speed will increase by 1 km/h (1 mph) each time the switch is operated in this manner.

  • Push the + switch up and hold it whilst monitoring the set speed on the cluster. The set speed will increase to the nearest multiple of ten at first, and then increase by 10 km/h (5 mph) each time the switch is operated in this manner.

    Release the switch when the desired speed is shown and the vehicle will accelerate to that speed.

Decreasing set speed

  • Push the - switch down and release it immediately. The set speed will decrease by 1 km/h (1 mph) each time the switch is operated in this manner.

  • Push the - switch down and hold it whilst monitoring the set speed on the cluster. The set speed will decrease to the nearest multiple of ten at first, and then decrease by 10 km/h (5 mph) each time the switch is operated in this manner.

    Release the switch at the speed you want to maintain.

Temporarily pausing Cruise Control

Cruise Control will be paused when:

  • Depressing the brake pedal.

  • Pressing the button.

  • Shifting the gear to N (Neutral).

  • Decreasing vehicle speed to less than approximately 30 km/h (20 mph).

  • ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is operating.

  • The vehicle speed is above 190 km/h (120 mph)

Resuming Cruise Control

If you press the button, vehicle speed will resume to the preset speed. Vehicle speed must be above 30 km/h (20 mph) for the function to resume.

Turning off Cruise Control

Press the Driving Assist button to turn Cruise Control off. The Cruise indicator will go off.

Always press the Driving Assist button to turn Cruise Control off when not in use.

NOTICE

Take the following precautions when using Cruise Control:

  • Always set the vehicle speed under the speed limit in your country.

  • Keep Cruise Control off when the function is not in use, to avoid inadvertently setting a speed. Check that the Cruise () indicator is off.

  • Cruise Control does not substitute for proper and safe driving. It is the responsibility of the driver to always drive safely and should always be aware of unexpected and sudden situations from occurring.

  • Always drive cautiously to prevent unexpected and sudden situations from occurring. Pay attention to the road conditions at all times.

  • Do not use Cruise Control when it may be unsafe to keep the vehicle at a constant speed:

    • When driving in heavy traffic, or when traffic conditions make it difficult to drive at a constant speed

    • When driving on rainy, icy, or snow-covered roads

    • When driving on hilly or windy roads

    • When driving in windy areas

    • When driving with limited view (possibly due to bad weather, such as fog, snow, rain and sandstorm)

  • Do not use Cruise Control when towing a trailer.

CAUTION

During cruise-speed driving with the manual transmission vehicle, do not shift into neutral without depressing the clutch pedal, since the engine will be over-revved. If this happens, depress the clutch pedal or press the Driving Assist button to turn Cruise Control off.
