position.  
(Manual transmission)  
The shift lever is in the neutral  
position.  
When the cruise control system is  
temporarily canceled by even one of the  
applicable cancel conditions, the speed  
cannot be re-set.  
If the cruise control system temporarily  
canceled (such as by applying the brake  
pedal) and the system is still activated, the  
most recent set speed will automatically  
resume when the RESUME/ switch is  
pressed.  
If vehicle speed is below 25 km/h (16  
mph), increase the vehicle speed up to 25  
km/h (16 mph) or more and press the  
RESUME/ switch.  
(Automatic transmission)  
The cruise control cannot be cancelled  
while driving in manual mode (selector  
lever shifted from D to M position).  
Therefore, engine braking will not be  
applied even if the transmission is  
shifted down to a lower gear. If  
deceleration is required, lower the set  
speed or depress the brake pedal.
