Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) —
If Equipped
If your vehicle is equipped with Adaptive Cruise
Control, the controls operate exactly the same as
the standard cruise control, with one difference.
You can set a specified distance you would like to
maintain between you and the vehicle in front of
you.
• If the ACC sensor detects a vehicle ahead, ACC
will apply limited braking or acceleration auto-
matically to maintain a preset following dis-
tance while matching the speed of the vehicle
ahead.
• If the sensor does not detect a vehicle directly
ahead of you, it functions like a standard cruise
control system, maintaining the speed you set.
Adaptive Cruise Switches
1 — Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) On/Off

when it detects a potential frontal collision. The
warnings and limited braking are intended to pro-
vide the driver with enough time to react and avoid
or mitigate the potential collision.
FCW monitors the information from the forward-
looking sensor, as well as the Electronic Brake
Controller (EBC) and wheel speed sensors, to
calculate a probable collision. When the system
determines that a collision is probable, a warning
message (both audible and visual) will be dis-
played within the cluster display along with a
brake jerk warning (previously enabled in the
Uconnect Settings). When the system senses the
