Cruise Control - Overview: Overview

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

The cruise control system is controlled by the PCM.

The cruise control mode is selected from the steering wheel mounted switches (ON/OFF, SET+, SET- and CAN/RES), which are integrated into the LH steering wheel switch.

The cruise control system maintains a selected vehicle speed between 29 kmh (18 mph) and the maximum limited vehicle speed. When a MyKey ® restricted key is in use and max speed limiter is turned on, vehicle speed is limited to 129 kmh (80 mph).

During normal driving, the vehicle speed can vary slightly from the set speed due to road conditions. The vehicle speed can fluctuate when driving up and down a steep hill. If the vehicle speed decreases more than 16 kmh (10 mph) below the set speed, the cruise control disengages.
