ADAPTIVE CRUISE
CONTROL (ACC) — IF
EQUIPPED
If your vehicle is equipped with Adaptive
Cruise Control (ACC), the controls operate
exactly the same as the Speed Control with
only a couple of differences. With this
option, you can set a specified distance you
would like to maintain between you and the
vehicle in front of you.
Adaptive Cruise Switches
1 — Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control On/Off
2 — SET (+)/Accel
3 — RES/Resume
4 — SET (-)/Decel
5 — Distance Setting Increase
6 — Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) On/Off

NOTE:
If the sensor does not detect a vehicle

ahead of you, ACC will maintain a fixed set
speed.
If the ACC sensor detects a vehicle ahead,

ACC will apply limited braking or acceler-
ation (not to exceed the original set speed)
automatically to maintain
following distance, while matching the
speed of the vehicle ahead.
WARNING!
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a conve-

nience system. It is not a substitute for
active driving involvement. It is always
the driver's responsibility to be attentive
of road, traffic, and weather conditions,
vehicle speed, distance to the vehicle
ahead; and, most importantly, brake
operation to ensure safe operation of the
vehicle under all road conditions. Your
complete attention is always required
while driving to maintain safe control of
your vehicle. Failure to follow these
warnings can result in a collision and
death or serious personal injury.
The ACC system:

Does not react to pedestrians,

oncoming vehicles, and stationary
objects (e.g., a stopped vehicle in a
traffic jam or a disabled vehicle).
Cannot take street, traffic, and

weather conditions into account, and
may be limited upon adverse sight
distance conditions.
