9.16.3.10. Operating conventional (fixed speed) cruise control mode

To turn on the conventional (fixed speed) cruise control mode, push and hold the Cruise ON/OFF switch for longer than about 1.5 seconds.

When pushing the CRUISE ON/OFF switch on, the conventional (fixed speed) cruise control mode display and indicators are displayed in the vehicle information display. After you hold the CRUISE ON/OFF switch on for longer than about 1.5 seconds, the ICC system display goes out. The cruise indicator appears. You can now set your desired cruising speed. Pushing the CRUISE ON/OFF switch again will turn the system completely off.

When the power switch is placed in the OFF position, the system is also automatically turned off.

To use the ICC system again, quickly push and release the CRUISE ON/OFF switch (vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode) or push and hold it (conventional cruise control mode) again to turn it on.

To avoid accidentally engaging cruise control, make sure to turn the CRUISE ON/OFF switch off when not using the ICC system.

To set cruising speed, accelerate your vehicle to the desired speed, push the <SET-> switch and release it. (The colour of the cruise indicator changes to green and set vehicle speed indicator comes on.) Take your foot off the accelerator pedal. Your vehicle will maintain the set speed.

  • To pass another vehicle, depress the accelerator pedal. When you release the pedal, the vehicle will return to the previously set speed.

  • The vehicle may not maintain the set speed when going up or down steep hills. If this happens, manually maintain vehicle speed.

To cancel the preset speed, use any of the following methods:

  • Push the CANCEL switch. The vehicle speed indicator will turn off.

  • Tap the brake pedal. The vehicle speed indicator will turn off.

  • Turn the CRUISE ON/OFF switch off. Both the cruise indicator and set vehicle speed indicator will turn off.

To reset at a faster cruising speed, use one of the following three methods:

  • Depress the accelerator pedal. When the vehicle attains the desired speed, push and release the <SET-> switch.

  • Push and hold the <RES+> switch. When the vehicle attains the desired speed, release the switch.

  • Push, then quickly release the <RES+> switch. Each time you do this, the set speed will increase by about 1 km/h (1 MPH).

To reset at a slower cruising speed, use one of the following three methods:

  • Lightly tap the brake pedal. When the vehicle attains the desired speed, push the <SET-> switch and release it.

  • Push and hold the <SET-> switch. Release the switch when the vehicle slows down to the desired speed.

  • Push, then quickly release the <SET-> switch. Each time you do this, the set speed will decrease by about 1 km/h (1 MPH).

To resume the preset speed, push and release the <RES+> switch. The vehicle will resume the last set cruising speed when the vehicle speed is over 40 km/h (25 MPH).
