The cruise control does not operate when the Hill Descent Control is operating.

 

The accelerator pedal operation takes priority during constant speed driving. When you release your foot from the accelerator pedal, the vehicle returns to constant speed driving at the set speed.

 

The system may not be able to maintain the set speed depending on the road conditions such as steep up or down slopes.

 

When the vehicle speed is less than 25 km/h (16 mph), the cruise control is canceled. If you want to use the cruise control again, reset the cruise control.

 

The brake lights turn on while the brakes are operating by the cruise control.

 

While driving the vehicle using cruise control, the cruise control will not be canceled and engine braking will not be applied even if the transmission is shifted down to a lower gear manually. If deceleration is required, lower the set vehicle speed or depress the brake pedal.
