1. OVERVIEW
1) System Description

cardiagn.com
The cruise control is an automatic speed control system that maintains a desired driving speed
without using the accelerator pedal.
The vehicle speed must be greater than 38 km/h to engage the cruise control. This feature is
especially useful for motorway driving.

The cruise control system is a supplementary system, which helps the driver to drive the
vehicle at a desired speed without using the accelerator pedal under the traffic condition
where the vehicle-to-vehicle distance meets the legal requirement.

2) Traffic Conditions for Using Cruise Control


Use the cruise control system only when the traffic is not jammed, driving on motorways or
highways where there is no sudden change in the driving condition due to traffic lights,
pedestrian, etc.

Improper use of the cruise control could be dangerous.


- Do not use on winding roadsyy .
- Do not use in heavy traffic.
- Do not use on slippery, wet roads.
This could result in a loss of control, collision, and/or personal injuries.

3. HOW IT WORKS
1) Setting a Desired Speed

cardiagn.com
1. To operate the cruise control, accelerate to the desired speed, which must be more than 38
km/h (24 MPH) and less than 150 km/h (90 MPH).
2. When the desired speed is reached, push up the ACCEL switch of the cruise control lever or
push down the DECEL switch for 1 second per one switching and then release the
accelerator pedal slowly.
3. Now, the vehicle is cruised by this system with the set speed. You don't need to use the
accelerator pedal.
4. Refer to the following pages for details of operation.

Never use the cruise control system until you get used to it.
Improper use or not fully aware of this function could result in collision and/or personal
injuries.

2) Accelerating with the Cruise Control System

cardiagn.com
(1) While the cruise control system is running
1. Push up the ACCEL switch of the cruise control lever and hold it until the desired speed is
reached without an accelerator pedal intervention.
2. When the desired speed is reached, release the lever.

(2) When the cruise control system is not running


To increase the speed with the cruise control system while the system is not running, follow the
procedures below.
1. Accelerate using the accelerator pedal over 38 km/h.
Push up the ACCEL switch of the cruise control lever and hold it. And then release the
accelerator pedal slowly.
2. When the desired speed is reached, release the lever.

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


To increase the vehicle speed in stages while the cruise control system is running, follow the
procedures below.
1. Push up the ACCEL 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-up switching. When you operate a
tap-up switching, the vehicle is accelerated for 1 km/h over the previous set speed.
2. If you want to accelerate for 10 km/h, operate the tap-up switching ten times without
accelerating with the cruise control system.

3) Decelerating with the Cruise Control System

cardiagn.com
(1) While the cruise control system is running
1. 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 38 km/h.
2. 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.
1. 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 40 km/h.
2. And then release the accelerator pedal slowly.
3. When the desired speed is reached, release the lever. But the cruise control system cannot
maintain the cruise function at less than 38 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.
1. 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 km/h below the previous set
speed.
2. 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)

cardiagn.com
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 38 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.

5) Recovery of Set Speed (ECO)

cardiagn.com
Even if the cruise control is cancelled, the previous set cruise speed can be recovered by
pushing down the cruise control lever when the current vehicle speed is over 38 km/h without
an acceleration intervention. In this operation, the smooth acceleration to the set cruise speed
can be achieved by optimized fuel consumption.
When this mode is activated, ECO indicator comes on.

6) Normal Cancellation of the Cruise Control

cardiagn.com
The cruise control system will be canceled when one or more items of the following conditions
are applied;

1. When the brake pedal is depressed.


2. When the cruising speed is downed less than 38 km/h.
3. When pushing the ON-OFF switch of the cruise control lever.
4. When ESP is activated.
5. When applying the parking brake when driving.
6. When using the clutch in order to shift (M/T only).
And the cruise control system can be operated again in driving state.

Keep the main cruise control switch in the neutral position when not using the cruise control.

7) Abnormal Cancellation of the Cruise Control


1. When the rapid deceleration is applied without braking.
When the rapid acceleration is applied without acceleration pedal intervention.
2. When the cruise control lever is faulty.
3. When the brake switch and the brake light switch input signal are implausible.

When the cruise control function is cancelled abnormally or intermittent problems occur, stop
the vehicle and turn off the ignition switch and remove the key to reset the system. After a
while, turn on the ignition switch again to operate the cruise control system.

1. 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.
2. Always be prepared to use the brake or accelerator pedal for safe driving while the cruise
control system is running.
3. The actual speed can be different from the set speed momentarily when driving on a uphill

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