Control And Operation
| Vehicle speed control | When the actual vehicle speed is higher than the set speed, the throttle valve of the electronic control throttle moves in the closing direction by the amount corresponding to the difference between the two speeds. When the actual vehicle speed is lower than the set speed, the throttle valve of the electronic control throttle moves in the opening direction by the amount corresponding to the difference between the two speeds. |
| Speed set function (SET function) | When the SET/COAST switch is pressed while the vehicle is running at a speed greater than 40 km/h (25 MPH) and the MAIN switch is ON, the cruise control is set at the current vehicle speed (this speed becomes the "memorized speed") and the vehicle maintains this speed thereafter. |
| Resume control function (RESUME function) | When the RESUME/ACCEL switch is turned ON after the cruise control is temporarily cancelled, the vehicle speed returns to the memorized speed, which was stored just before the cruise control was cancelled. This occurs only when the vehicle is running at a speed greater than 32 km/h (20 MPH). In the following cases, however, the memorized speed is cleared.
|
| Deceleration control function (1) (COASTING function) | When the SET/COAST switch is pressed for a prolonged time while the vehicle is governed by the cruise control, the memorized vehicle speed of the cruise control is changed to the vehicle speed value reached at the moment the switch is released after slowing down. However, the cruise control is cancelled when the vehicle speed becomes lower than the lower limit of the speed setting range. |
| Deceleration control function (2) (TAP DOWN function) | When the SET/COAST switch is pressed for a short time while the vehicle is governed by the cruise control, the cruise control subtracts a certain amount from the memorized speed to obtain a new value. However, when the actual vehicle speed largely differs from the memorized speed, the actual speed becomes the new memorized speed of the cruise control. |
| Acceleration control function (1) (ACCELERATING function) | When the RESUME/ACCEL switch is pressed for a prolonged time while the vehicle is governed by the cruise control, the memorized speed of the cruise control is changed to the vehicle speed value reached at the moment the switch is released after accelerating. However, when the vehicle speed is higher than the upper limit of the speed setting range, the upper limit becomes the memorized speed of the cruise control. |
| Acceleration control function (2) (TAP UP function) | When the RESUMU/ACCEL switch is pressed for a short time while the vehicle is governed by the cruise control, the cruise control adds a certain amount to the memorized speed to obtain a new value. However, when the actual vehicle speed largely differs from the memorized speed, the cruise control maintains the former memorized speed. |
| Cruise control cancel function | When any of the following conditions is met, the cruise control is cancelled.
