1) Traffic Conditions for Using Cruise Control

Use the cruise control system only when the traffic is not jammed, driving on motorways or highways

where there is no sudden change in the driving condition due to traffic lights, pedestrian, etc.

Improper use of the cruise control could be dangerous.

- Do not use on winding roads.

- Do not use in heavy traffic.

- Do not use on slippery, wet roads.

This could result in a loss of control, collision, and/or personal injuries.

The described speed value may vary slightly depending on the road conditions.

2. HOW TO OPERATE CRUISE CONTROL SWITCH

1) Setting a Desired Speed

To operate the cruise control, accelerate to the desired speed, which must be more than 36 km/h

(23 MPH) and less than 150 km/h (90 MPH).

When the desired speed is reached, push up the ACCEL switch of the cruise control lever or push

down the DECEL switch for 1 second per one switching and then release the accelerator pedal

slowly.

Now, the vehicle is cruised by this system with the set speed.

And you can set to other vehicle speeds again with above steps after an accelerator pedal

intervention during the cruise control running.

Improper use or not fully aware of this function could result in collision and/or personal injuries.

without an accelerator pedal intervention.

When the desired speed is reached, release the lever.

(3) Tap-up while the cruise control system is running

Push up the ACCEL switch of the cruise control lever less than 0.5 second per one switching while

the cruise control system is running. This is a tap-up switching.

When you operate a tap-up switching, the vehicle is accelerated by 1.3 km/h over the previous set

speed.

If you want to accelerate to 13 km/h, operate the tap-up switching ten times without accelerating

with the cruise control system.

3) Decelerating with the Cruise Control System

(1) While the cruise control system is running

Push down the DECEL switch of the cruise control lever and hold it until the desired speed is

reached without a brake pedal intervention. But the cruise control system cannot maintain the

cruise function at less than 34 km/h.

When the desired speed is reached, release the lever.

(2) When the cruise control system is not running

Push down the DECEL switch of the cruise control lever and hold it.

And then release the accelerator pedal slowly.

When the desired speed is reached, release the lever. But the cruise control system cannot

maintain the cruise function at less than 34 km/h.

(3) Tap-down while the cruise control system is running

Push down the DECEL switch of the cruise control lever less than 0.5 second per one switching

while the cruise control system is running. This is a tap-down switching.

When you operate a tap-down switching, the vehicle is decelerated by 1.0 km/h below the previous

set speed.

If you want to decelerate to 10 km/h, operate the tap-down switching ten times without the brake

pedal intervention.
