(4) Check that vehicle speed increases while the cruise control main switch is pushed to + (ACCEL)/RES (RESUME), and that the vehicle cruises at the newly set speed when the switch is released.
(5) Push the cruise control main switch to + (ACCEL)/RES (RESUME) and then release it immediately. Check that vehicle speed increases by approximately 1.6 km/h (1.0 mph) (tap-up control).
(c) Inspect the - (COAST) function.
(1) Turn the cruise control main switch on.
(2) Drive at the required speed of between 40 km/h (25 mph) and 200 km/h (125 mph).
(3) Push the cruise control main switch to - (COAST)/SET.
(4) Check that vehicle speed decreases while the cruise control main switch is pushed to - (COAST)/SET, and the vehicle cruises at the newly set speed when the switch is released.
(5) Push the cruise control main switch to - (COAST)/SET, and then release it immediately. Check that vehicle speed decreases by approximately 1.6 km/h (1.0 mph) (tap-down control).
(d) Inspect the CANCEL function.
(1) Turn the cruise control main switch on.
(2) Drive at the required speed of between 40 km/h (25 mph) and 200 km/h (125 mph).
(3) Push the cruise control main switch to - (COAST)/SET.
(4) When performing any one of the following, check that the cruise control system is canceled and that the normal driving mode returns.
- Pulling the cruise control main switch to CANCEL
- Depressing the brake pedal
