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

To decrease the vehicle speed with the cruise control system when the system is not running, follow the 

procedures below.

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

reached while the vehicle speed is over 36 km/h.

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

To decrease the vehicle speed in stages while the cruise control system is running, follow the 

procedures below.

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 for 1.0 km/h below the previous set speed.

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

intervention.

4) Recovery of Set Speed (RESUME)

Even if the cruise control is cancelled, the previous set cruise speed can be recovered by pulling up the 

cruise control lever when the current vehicle speed is over 36 km/h without an acceleration intervention. 

But if you turn off the ignition switch, the memorized set speed is cleared and you cannot recover the 

previous set speed.

But the driver should know the previous set speed to react to the changed vehicle speed properly. If the 

vehicle speed increases abruptly, depress the brake pedal to adjust the vehicle speed properly.

Do not move the shift lever to Neutral position while driving with the cruise control turned on. 

Otherwise, it may result in system malfunction or accidents.

Always be prepared to use the brake or accelerator pedal for safe driving while the cruise control 

system is running.

The actual speed can be different from the set speed momentarily when driving on a uphill or 

downhill. So, it is recommended to disable the cruise control function on a uphill or downhill. hen 

driving on a steep hill use the engine brake and foot brake properly to protect the vehicle system 

and for a safe driving.

Ensure that the safe distance is maintained and use the brake pedal if needed.
