Table of contents: Precautions when using the cruise…↓ Operation of the cruise control…↓
Do not use the cruise control system when driving under the following conditions:
- If it is impossible to maintain the vehicle at a given speed;
- In heavy traffic or when traffic flows at variable speeds;
- When driving on winding roads and in hilly areas;
- When driving on slippery road surfaces (during rain, snowfall, icy conditions, etc.);
- In the presence of strong wind.
Under the above conditions, using cruise control may cause loss of control of the vehicle, which may result in an accident.
- 1. ACCEL/RES switch.
- 2. SET/COAST switch.
- 3. CANCEL button.
- 4. Cruise control system main switch (ON/OFF).
Precautions when using the cruise control system
In the event of a malfunction, the cruise control system will automatically switch off, which will be indicated by the flashing SET indicator on the instrument panel.
When the engine overheats, the system automatically switches off (except for the QR25 engine).
If the SET indicator lamp flashes, turn off the cruise control system main switch and have the system checked and repaired by a service station.
The SET indicator lamp may flash when the cruise control system is on. When the RESUME/ACCELERATE/SET/COAST or CANCEL buttons are pressed.
Operation of the cruise control system
The cruise control system provides automatic stabilization of the vehicle's speed without the driver having to control the accelerator pedal from 40 to 160 km/h.
- The cruise control system will automatically switch off when the vehicle speed drops below 13 km/h.
- Shifting the selector lever to position N automatically switches off the cruise control system and the SET indicator goes out (cars with automatic transmission and CVT).
- Pressing the clutch pedal will disengage the cruise control system (cars with manual transmission).
To turn on the cruise control system, turn the cruise control main switch to the ON position. The CRUISE indicator on the instrument panel will light up.
To set the movement speed:
- 1. Accelerate the car to the desired speed.
- 2. Press and release the COAST/SET switch.
- 3. Release the accelerator pedal The car will move at the set speed.
To overtake another vehicle, press the accelerator pedal. After overtaking, release the accelerator pedal. The vehicle will return to the preset speed. When driving on steep uphill or downhill gradients or on winding roads, the preset speed may not be maintained. In such driving conditions, turn off the cruise control system.
To set a higher movement speed, use one of the methods described below:
- a. Press the accelerator pedal. After the vehicle has accelerated to the desired speed, press and release the COAST/SET button.
- b. Press and hold the ACCEL/RES button. After the vehicle accelerates to the desired speed, release the button.
- c. Press and release the ACCEL/RES button repeatedly. Each time you press it, the set speed will change in increments.
1.6 km/h (models with MR20 engine).
1.0 km/h (models with QR25 engine).
To reduce the set speed of movement, you can use one of the methods described below:

- c. Press and release the COAST/SET button repeatedly. Each time you press it, the set speed will change in increments of:
1.6 km/h (models with MR20 engine).
1.0 km/h (models with QR25 engine).
To restore the preset speed, press and release the ACCEL/RES button. If the current vehicle speed is over 40 km/h, the vehicle will restore the last preset speed. To cancel the preset speed, use one of the following methods:
- a. Press the CANCEL button. The SET indicator will go out.
- b. Lightly depress the brake pedal. The SET indicator goes out.
- c. Turn the main switch to the OFF position. The CRUISE and SET indicators will go out.
