Passing Another Vehicle While Using

Cruise Control

Use the accelerator pedal to increase the vehicle’s

speed. When you take your foot off the pedal, the

vehicle slows down to the cruise control speed set

earlier.

Using Cruise Control on Hills

How well the cruise control works on hills depends upon

the vehicle’s speed, load, and the steepness of the hills.

When going up steep hills, you might want to step on the

accelerator pedal to maintain the vehicle’s speed. When

going downhill, you might have to brake or shift to a lower

gear to keep the vehicle’s speed down. When the brakes

are applied the cruise control turns off.

Cruise Control in Sport and Manual Paddle

Shift Gear Selection

When the vehicle is in S (Sport) and the manual paddle

shift controls are not being used, cruise control

operates in the same manner as D (Drive).

When the vehicle is in S (Sport) and the manual paddle

shift controls are being used, cruise control operates

as follows:

• If cruise control is active and a gear is selected with

the manual paddle shift controls, the vehicle speed

is maintained in the driver selected gear and will not

automatically up-shift or down-shift the transmission

while the driver’s gear selection is active.

• If driving in hilly terrain, cruise control may not

be able to maintain vehicle speed if an up-shift

or down-shift is not selected by the driver. While

driving on hilly terrain and cruise control is active

with a manual paddle shift gear selection, the driver

must select the proper gear for the terrain or select

D (Drive) on the gear range selector for full automatic

transmission operation.
