NOTE:
The "BRAKE!" screen in the instrument cluster
display is a warning for the driver to take action
and does not necessarily mean that the Forward
Collision Warning system is applying the brakes
autonomously.
Overtake Aid
When driving with Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
engaged and following a vehicle, the system will
provide an additional acceleration up to the ACC
set speed to assist in passing the vehicle. This
additional acceleration is triggered when the driver
utilizes the left turn signal and will only be active
when passing on the left hand side.
ACC Operation At Stop
In the event that the ACC system brings your
vehicle to a standstill while following the vehicle in
front, your vehicle will resume motion, without the
need for any driver action, if the vehicle in front
starts moving within two seconds.
If the vehicle in front does not start moving within
two seconds of your vehicle coming to a standstill,
the driver will either have to push the RES (resume)
button, or apply the accelerator pedal to reengage
the ACC to the existing set speed.
NOTE:
After the ACC system holds your vehicle at a stand-
still for approximately three consecutive minutes,
the parking brake will be activated, and the ACC
system will be canceled.
While the ACC system is holding your vehicle at a
standstill, if the driver seat belt is unbuckled or the
driver door is opened, the parking brake will be
activated, and the ACC system will be canceled.
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.
Display Warnings And Maintenance
"WIPE FRONT RADAR SENSOR" WARNING
The "ACC/AEB Unavailable Wipe Front Radar
Sensor" warning will display and a chime will
sound when conditions temporarily limit system
performance.
STARTING AND OPERATING
This most often occurs at times of poor visibility,
such as in snow or heavy rain. The ACC system may
also become temporarily blinded due to
obstructions, such as mud, dirt or ice. In these
cases, the instrument cluster display will show
"ACC/AEB Unavailable Wipe Front Radar Sensor"
and the system will deactivate.
The "ACC/AEB Unavailable Wipe Front Radar
Sensor" message can sometimes be displayed
while driving in highly reflective areas (i.e. ice and
snow, or tunnels with reflective tiles). The ACC
system will recover after the vehicle has left these
areas. Under rare conditions, when the radar is not
tracking any vehicles or objects in its path this
warning may temporarily occur.
NOTE:
If the "ACC/AEB Unavailable Wipe Front Radar
Sensor" warning is active, Fixed Speed Cruise
Control is still available.
If weather conditions are not a factor, the driver
should examine the sensor. It may require cleaning
or removal of an obstruction. The sensor is located
in the center of the vehicle behind the lower grille.
