Increasing Speed While Using Cruise Control
Using Cruise Control on Hills
There are two ways to go to a higher speed:
How well your cruise control will work on hills depends
upon your speed, load and the steepness of the hills.
When going up steep hills, you may want to step on the
accelerator pedal to maintain your speed. When going
downhill, you may have to brake or shift to a lower gear
to keep your speed down. Of course, applying the brake
takes you out of cruise control. Many drivers find this
to be too much trouble and don’t use cruise control
on steep hills.
Use the accelerator pedal to get to the higher speed.
Press the button at the end of the lever, then release
the button and the accelerator pedal. You’ll now
cruise at the higher speed.
Move the cruise switch from ON to R/A. Hold it
there until you get up to the speed you want, and
then release the switch. To increase your speed in
very small amounts, move the switch to R/A.
Each time you do this, your vehicle will go about
Ending Cruise Control
1
mph (1.6 km/h) faster.
There are two ways to turn off the cruise control:
Reducing Speed While Using Cruise Control
Step lightly on the brake pedal or push the clutch
pedal, if you have a manual transmission.
Press in the button at the end of the lever until you
reach the lower speed you want, then release it.
Move the cruise switch to OFF.
To slow down in very small amounts, press the
button for less than a half a second. Each time you
do this, you’ll go 1 mph (1.6 km/h) slower.
Erasing Speed Memory
When you turn off the cruise control or the ignition,
your cruise control set speed memory is erased.
Passing Another Vehicle While Using Cruise Control
Use the accelerator pedal to increase your speed. When
you take your foot off the pedal, your vehicle will slow
down to the cruise control speed you set earlier.

Glad I did not have to pay for manual
So, another good reason to keep on top of pressures. Since an average dealership sale lasts a mere 5 days, it’s imperative that a
dealership’s direct mail gets into consumers’ homes as quickly as possible.
I typically come up with some fairly wild ideas for my cars and Troy by no means says no.
