Speed Control Switches
The speed control system is operated by a 5-function switch mounted on the steering wheel. The switch functions are:
OPERATION PRINCIPLES
| Switch | Function |
|---|---|
| ON | Activate system |
| OFF | Deactivate system |
| SET/ACC | Set/Accelerate and tap up |
| COAST | Coast and tap down |
| RES | Resume |
When the ON switch is pressed and the vehicle is travelling at a speed greater than 48 km/h (30 mph) the speed control actuator will accept speed inputs.
The SET/ACC switch is used to set or accelerate the vehicle at speeds above 48 km/h (30 mph). The switch can be used in 3 ways.
- Accelerate the vehicle with the accelerator pedal to the desired speed, press and release the SET/ACC switch. The vehicle will then maintain the desired speed.
- Press the SET/ACC switch and hold it down until the vehicle reaches the desired speed. When the switch is released, the speed is stored in the memory and used to maintain the vehicle speed.
- Press the SET/ACC switch repeatedly in order to increase the vehicle speed by increments of 1.6 km/h (1 mph).
The COAST switch is used to reduce the vehicle speed. The switch can be used in 2 ways:
- Press and hold the COAST switch down until the vehicle slows to the desired speed. When the switch is released, the speed is stored in the memory and used to maintain the vehicle speed.
- Press the COAST switch repeatedly to reduce the vehicle speed by increments of 1.6 km/h (1 mph).
Pressing the RES switch returns the vehicle to the set speed when speed control is in the stand-by mode and vehicle speed is greater than 48 km/h (30 mph).
Pressing the OFF switch deactivates the speed control system. The speed setting stored in memory is erased.
