Ford Mustang Owners Manual: Cruise Control
PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
Cruise control lets you maintain a set speed without keeping your foot on the accelerator pedal.
USING CRUISE CONTROL
WARNING
: Do not use cruise control in heavy traffic, on winding roads or when the road surface is slippery. This could result in loss of vehicle control, serious injury or death.
WARNING
: When you are going downhill, your vehicle speed may increase above the set speed. The system will not apply the brakes. Change down a gear to assist the system in maintaining the set speed. Failure to do so could result in loss of vehicle control, serious injury or death.
