    2. After pushing the ON-OFF button on, push the cruise control main switch to MODE for at least 1 second without performing any other control. Make sure that only "NORM" and nothing else is indicated on the display.
      NOTE: When performing other operations (setting) after pushing the ON-OFF button on, the system cancels the constant speed control mode and cannot return to the mode again.

      HINT:

      If the system cannot switch to the constant speed control mode, push the ON-OFF button off once, and perform the same procedures as shown above. If a malfunction is still detected in the system, start the engine again and perform the above procedure.
