Cruise Control Systems: Operation

When cruise control main switch is in ON position, system is ready to be engaged. Cruise control switch sets or adjusts desired speed. Cruise control switch contains SET/COAST and RESUME/ACCEL switches. System will not operate at speeds less than 25 MPH.

To engage system, accelerate to desired speed (greater than 25 MPH) and momentarily press SET/COAST switch. To disengage system, apply brakes or turn cruise control main switch off.

To accelerate from a set cruising speed, press and hold RESUME/ACCEL switch until vehicle is at desired speed, and then release RESUME/ACCEL switch. To decrease speed, press and hold SET/COAST switch until vehicle is at desired speed, and then release SET/COAST switch.

To resume previous set speed, momentarily press RESUME/ACCEL switch (previous set speed cannot be resumed if system was disengaged using cruise control main switch).

NOTE: System uses 2 switches to determine if brakes are being applied: cruise brake switch (dedicated to cruise control system) and brakelight switch (part of brakelight system).

NOTE: On vehicles with automatic overdrive transmission, if speed drops 9 MPH less than set speed, cruise control module cancels or prevents OD transmission function. When vehicle speed returns to within 2 MPH of set speed for at least 20 seconds, OD transmission function is restored.
