Coast/Set Switch

Cruise Control Mode Switch (RESUME/ACCEL, COAST/SET & CANCEL):




The COAST/SET switch, part of the cruise control mode switch, is activated when the cruise control switch is rotated counterclockwise into the COAST/SET position.

When the cruise control switch is rotated to the COAST/SET position and released, the cruise speed will be set at the speed at which the vehicle was traveling when the switch was activated. In order for this switch to operate, however, the CRUISE CRTL switch button must have been pressed, the CRUISE indicator must be lit, and the vehicle speed must be over 40 km/h (25 mph).

The COAST/SET switch can also be used to decrease the cruise speed. By rotating the cruise control switch counterclockwise to the COAST/SET position and holding it there, the cruise control system will disengage and allow the throttle to return to the idle position. When the new, lower cruise speed has been reached, the cruise control switch is released from the COAST/SET position. Once released, the cruise control system will re-engage and maintain the new desired cruise speed.

The accelerator may be pressed at any time to override cruise control system operation. Release of the accelerator will return the vehicle to the previously set cruise speed.
