Cruise Control Switch: Testing and Inspection

AUTO-CRUISE CONTROL SWITCH CHECK

AUTO-CRUISE CONTROL MAIN SWITCH CHECK
1. Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.




2. Check that the indicator light within the combination meter illuminates when the main switch is switched "ON."

Auto-cruise Control Setting
1. Switch "ON" the main switch.
2. Drive at the desired speed, above approximately 40 km/h (25 mph)




3. Push the auto-cruise control switch in the direction of arrow.
4. Check to be sure that when the switch is released the speed is the desired constant speed.

NOTE: If the vehicles speed decreases to approximately 15 km/h (9 mph) below the set speed because of climbing a hill for example, the auto-cruise control will be cancelled.

Speed-increase Setting
1. Set to the desired speed.




2. Push the auto-cruise control switch in the direction of arrow.
3. Check to be sure that acceleration continues while the switch is held and that after it is released the constant speed at the time when it was released becomes the driving speed.

NOTE: Acceleration can be continued even if the vehicle speed has passed the high-speed limit [approximately 200 km/h (124 mph)]. But the speed when the auto-cruise control switch is released will be recorded as the high-speed limit.

Speed-reduction Setting
1. Set to the desired speed.




2. Push the auto-cruise control switch in the direction of arrow.
3. Check to be sure that deceleration continues while the switch is pressed and that after it is released the constant speed at the time when it was released becomes the driving speed.

NOTE: When the vehicle speed reaches the low limit [approximately 40 km/h (25 mph)] during deceleration, the auto-cruise control will be cancelled.

Return to the Set Speed Before Cancellation and Auto-cruise Control Cancellation
1. Set the auto-cruise speed control.
2. When any of the following operations are performed while at constant speed during auto-cruise control, check if normal driving is resumed and deceleration occurs.




1. The auto-cruise control switch is pushed in the direction of arrow.
2. The brake pedal is depressed.
3. The clutch pedal is depressed. (M/T)
4. The selector lever is moved to the "N" range. (A/T)

3. At a vehicle speed of 40 km/h (25 mph) or higher, check if when the "RESUME" switch is switched "ON", the vehicle speed returns to the speed before auto-cruise control driving was cancelled and constant speed driving occurs.
4. When the main switch is turned to the "OFF" while driving at constant speed, check if normal driving is resumed and deceleration occurs.

Auto-cruise Control Check







Measure the resistance between the terminals when each of the "SET", "RESUME", "CANCEL" and "MAIN" switches is pressed. If the values measured at the time correspond to those in the table below, the resistance values are correct.
