Ford Escape: Cruise Control / Description and Operation - Cruise Control - Overview
Overview
The cruise control system is controlled by the PCM .
The
cruise control mode is selected from the steering wheel mounted
switches which are integrated into the steering wheel. Refer to Owners
Literature for additional information.
The
cruise control system maintains a selected vehicle speed between 32 kmh
(20 mph) or 30 kmh (18 mph) and the maximum limited vehicle speed. When
a MyKey® restricted key is in use and maximum speed limiter is turned
on, vehicle speed is limited to 129 kmh (80 mph).
During
normal driving, the vehicle speed can vary slightly from the set speed
due to road conditions. The vehicle speed can fluctuate when driving up
and down a steep hill. If the vehicle speed decreases more than 16 kmh
(10 mph) below the set speed, the cruise control disengages.
