Cruise Control: Description and Operation

SPEED CONTROL

The speed control system is controlled by the powertrain control module (PCM). The speed control system is designed to maintain a selected vehicle speed between 48 and 200 km/h (30 and 124 mph).

The speed control system is controlled by the steering wheel-mounted switches (ON, OFF, SET+, SET-, RESUME, and CANCEL), and the brake pedal. The steering wheel-mounted switches are backlit.

The speed control functions include:
- turning on the speed control system.
- setting and maintaining the desired vehicle speed.
- accelerating the vehicle speed.
- tapping-up/tapping-down the vehicle speed.
- resuming the prior vehicle speed.
- turning off the vehicle speed control system.
- canceling the speed control.
