Adaptive Cruise Control
Continued from previous page
- When water droplets from rain or the window washer, or dirt has not
been fully wiped off the windshield
It may not be possible to detect the vehicle in front, making correct
control impossible.
- When the stereo cameras' field of view is obstructed (for example by a
canoe on the roof of the vehicle)
The stereo cameras may have difficulty detecting the following objects or
conditions. Operate the brake pedal and take other actions as necessary.
- Vehicles at significantly different speeds (vehicles driving slowly,
stopped or oncoming vehicles, etc.)
- Vehicles cutting into your lane
- Motorcycles, bicycles, pedestrians and animals, etc.
- When light is poor in the evening or early morning
- When driving at night or in a tunnel without the headlights on
- When driving at night or in a tunnel when there is a vehicle in front that
does not have its taillights on
- When affected by strong light from the front (sunlight or headlight high
beams, etc.)
- Vehicles in front that have
a rear aspect that is low,
small or irregular (the sys-
tem
another part of the vehicle
and will determine opera-
tion from that)
• An empty truck or trailer
that has no cargo in the
cargo bed being affected
by wind
• Vehicles that have cargo
protruding
back ends
• Non-standard shaped ve-
hicles (vehicle transport-
ers or vehicles with a sidecar fitted, etc.)
• Vehicles that are low

When you do not want to use Adaptive Cruise Control, be sure to turn the
(CRUISE) switch off. If the switch is left on, cruise control may be
accidentally engaged, possibly resulting in an accident.
Before using Adaptive Cruise Control, be sure to fully verify the safety of
the vehicle occupants and the area around the vehicle. Never operate the
cruise control from outside the vehicle.
