Every time you briefly press the lever, the vehi-
cle speed increases by approx. 1 mph/1 km/h.
Press the lever to the resistance point and hold

The vehicle accelerates without pressure on
the accelerator pedal. The system maintains
and stores your current speed as soon as you
release the lever.
Press the lever beyond the resistance point:
The speed increases by 5 mph/10 km/h.
The vehicle may accelerate beyond the regu-

the engine's braking action alone may not be
sufficient to slow the vehicle. Speed can drop
on uphill grades if the engine output is insuffi-
cient.

Active cruise control*
The concept
With active cruise control, you can select a
desired speed which is not only automatically
maintained when driving on open roadways, but
also varied to maintain a selected distance set-
ting as slower traffic is encountered.
Active cruise control is technologically
advanced over the familiar cruise control and is
a welcome relief from the constant adjustment
of speed that can accompany driving in traffic
on freeways or other high-speed thorough-
