COAST/SET switch




The COAST/SET switch is part of the cruise control mode switch (1). The COAST/SET switch activates when the cruise control switch rotates counterclockwise into the COAST/SET position.

When you rotate the cruise control switch to the COAST/SET position and release the switch the vehicle will travel at the previously set speed. The following conditions must be present in order for the COAST/SET switch to operate:
^ You must press the main cruise control switch (CRUISE CTRL).
^ The CRUISE CTRL indicator must be lit.
^ The vehicle speed must be over 25 mph (40 km/h).

The COAST/ SET switch may be used in order to decease the cruise speed. Rotate the cruise control switch counterclockwise to the COAST/ SET position. Hold the cruise control switch in order to disengage the cruise control system and return the throttle to the idle position. When the new, lower cruise speed is reached, the cruise control switch will release from the COAST/ SET position. The cruise control system will re-engage and maintain the new cruise speed.

You may press the accelerator at any time in order to override the cruise control system operation. Release the accelerator in order to return the vehicle to the previously set cruise speed.
