Press and hold +RES until the
desired set speed appears on
the display, then release it.
To increase vehicle speed in
small increments, briefly press
+RES. For each press, the
vehicle goes 1 km/h or (1 mph)
faster.
When it is determined that there is
no vehicle ahead inside the selected
following gap, then the vehicle
speed will increase to the set speed.
Reducing Speed While ACC is at a
Set Speed
If ACC is already activated, do one
of the following:
Use the brake to get to the
desired lower speed. Press -SET
and release the accelerator
pedal. The vehicle will now
cruise at the lower speed.
Press and hold -SET until the
desired lower speed is reached,
then release it.
To decrease the vehicle speed in
smaller increments, press -SET
down briefly. For each press, the
vehicle goes about 1 km/h or
(1 mph) slower.
Selecting the Follow Distance
When a slower moving vehicle is
detected ahead within the selected
following gap, ACC will adjust the
vehicle's speed and attempt to
maintain the follow distance gap
selected.
Press on the steering wheel to
adjust the following gap. When
pressed, the current gap setting
displays briefly on the instrument
cluster. Subsequent presses cycle
the gap button through three
settings: Far, Medium, or Near. The
gap setting will be maintained until it
is changed.
Since each gap setting corresponds
to a following time (Far, Medium,
or Near), the following distance will
vary based on vehicle speed. The
faster the vehicle speed, the further
back your vehicle will follow a
vehicle detected ahead. Consider
Driving and Operating
traffic and weather conditions when
selecting the following gap. The
range of selectable gaps may not be
appropriate for all drivers and
driving conditions.
Changing the gap setting
automatically changes the alert
timing sensitivity (Far, Medium,
or Near) for the Forward Collision
Alert (FCA) feature. See Forward
Collision Alert (FCA) System 0 258.
Alerting the Driver
If ACC is engaged, driver action
may be required when ACC cannot
apply sufficient braking because of
approaching a vehicle too rapidly.
When this condition occurs, eight
beeps will sound from the front.
See Defensive Driving 0 218.
