vehicle speed has dropped below
approximately 30 km/h.

Turning cruise control off

Follow either of these procedures:
Press the Driving Assist button
(The cruise status on the LCD
screen will disappear).
Turn the ignition off.
Both of these actions cancel Cruise
Control operation. If you want to
resume Cruise Control operation,
repeat the steps provided in "Set-
ting cruise control speed" on page
6-44.

Economical operation

Your vehicle's fuel economy depends
mainly on your style of driving,
where you drive and when you drive.
Each of these factors affects how
many kilometers you can get from a
litre of fuel. To operate your vehicle
as economically as possible, use the
following driving suggestions to help
save money in both fuel and repairs:
Drive smoothly. Accelerate at a
moderate rate. Don't make "jack-
rabbit" starts or full-throttle
shifts and maintain a steady
cruising speed. Don't race
between stoplights. Try to adjust
your speed to the traffic so you
don't have to change speeds
unnecessarily. Avoid heavy traffic
whenever possible.
Always maintain a safe distance
from other vehicles so you can
avoid unnecessary braking. This
also reduces brake wear.
Drive at a moderate speed. The
faster you drive, the more fuel
your vehicle uses. Driving at a
moderate speed, especially on the
highway, is one of the most
effective ways to reduce fuel con-
sumption.
