Standard Cruise Control

WARNING
Do not use the cruise control system when driv-
ing conditions do not permit maintaining a con-
stant speed, such as in heavy traffic or on roads
that are winding, icy, snow-covered, slippery, or
roads with a loose driving surface. Failure to fol-
low this precaution could cause a collision or
loss of vehicle control, possibly resulting in per-
sonal injury or property damage.
NOTICE
When the cruise control is engaged, do not at-
tempt to shift gears without using the clutch
pedal. Failure to follow this precaution will result
in a temporarily uncontrolled increase in engine
speed. Transmission damage and gear stripping
could result.
NOTE: If the vehicle is equipped with a Detroit
automated transmission, setting the cruise con-
trol with the engine brake on will activate De-
scent Control Mode. Moving the transmission
shift lever to the top position will resume the set
cruise speed. Moving the lever down to engage
the engine brake after the cruise control has
been set will activate Deceleration Mode. See
"Descent Control and Deceleration Modes, De-
™
troit Automated Transmissions" in this chapter.
