not slow the vehicle sufficiently to reach
the set speed, the brake system will auto-
matically slow the vehicle.
• The ACC system applies the brake down
to a full stop when following a target
vehicle. If an ACC host vehicle follows a
target vehicle to a standstill, the host
vehicle will release the vehicle brakes two
seconds after coming to a full stop.
• The ACC system maintains set speed
when driving up hill and down hill. How-
ever, a slight speed change on moderate
hills is normal. In addition, downshifting
may occur while climbing uphill or de-
scending downhill. This is normal opera-
tion and necessary to maintain set speed.
When driving up hill and down hill, the
ACC system will cancel if the braking
temperature
exceeds
normal
(overheated).
ACC Operation At Stop
If the ACC system brings your vehicle to a
standstill while following a target vehicle, if the
target vehicle starts moving within two seconds
of your vehicle coming to a standstill, your
vehicle will resume motion without the need for
any driver action.
If the target vehicle does not start moving within
two seconds of your vehicle coming to a stand-
still, the ACC With Stop system will cancel and
the brakes will release. A cancel message will
display on the instrument cluster display and
produce a warning chime. Driver intervention
will be required at this moment.
While ACC With Stop is holding your vehicle at a
standstill, if the driver seatbelt is unbuckled or the
driver door is opened, the ACC With Stop system
will cancel and the brakes will release. A cancel
message will display on the instrument cluster
display and produce a warning chime. Driver
intervention will be required at this moment.
WARNING!
When the ACC system is resumed, the driver
must ensure that there are no pedestrians,
vehicles or objects in the path of the vehicle.
Failure to follow these warnings can result in
a collision and death or serious personal
injury.
