System operation
The speed control system operates between the following speeds
- On vehicles with 2.0L engine the speed range is 40km/h (25mile/h) and 192km/h (120mile/h). On vehicles with 2.5L, 3.0L or diesel engine the speed range is 40km/h (25mile/h) and 180km/h (112mile/h).
The speed control system is designed to maintain a selected vehicle speed between these two parameters.
Vehicles with 2.0L engine
Any of the deactivator switches operated by the hand brake, foot brake or clutch pedal (vehicles fitted with manual transmission) or by information sent by the engine control module (ECM) to the cruise control module will interrupt the speed control operation. This will allow the system to go into STANDBY mode. Operating the RESUME switch with the system in STANDBY mode will allow the vehicle to accelerate until the last set speed is resumed, providing the vehicle speed remains between the upper and lower operating limits of the speed control system.
Vehicles with 2.5L, 3.0L or diesel engine
Any of the deactivator switches operated by the brake or clutch pedal (vehicles fitted with manual transmission) will interrupt the speed control operation by switching the signal to the ECM. This will allow the system to go into STANDBY mode. Operating the RESUME switch with the system in STANDBY mode will allow the vehicle to accelerate until the last set speed is resumed, providing the vehicle speed remains between the upper and lower operating limits of the speed control system.
