Toyota Sienna. Canceling and resuming the constant speed control

  1. Pulling the lever toward you cancels the constant speed control.

    The speed setting is also canceled when the brakes are applied.

  2. Pushing the lever up resumes the constant speed control.

    Resuming is available when the vehicle speed is more than approximately 40 km/h.

Cruise control can be set when

  • The shift lever is in D or the range 4, 5 or 6 of S has been selected.
  • Vehicle speed is above approximately 40 km/h.

Accelerating after setting the vehicle speed

  • The vehicle can be accelerated normally. After acceleration, the set speed resumes.
  • Even without canceling the cruise control, the set speed can be increased by first accelerating the vehicle to the desired speed and then pushing the lever down to set the new speed.

Automatic cruise control cancelation

Cruise control will stop maintaining the vehicle speed in any of the following situations.

  • Actual vehicle speed falls more than approximately 16 km/h below the preset vehicle speed.

    At this time, the memorized set speed is not retained.
