STARTING AND OPERATING
Recalling The Speed
Once the system has been cancelled by pressing the
brake pedal or the CANC button but not deactivated
by pressing the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) On/Off,
simply press the RES button and take your foot off the
accelerator pedal to recall a previously set speed.
The system will be set to the last stored speed.
Before returning to the previously set speed, bring the
speed close to that value, then press the RES button
and release it.
WARNING!
The recall function must only be used if the road and
traffic conditions so allow. Recalling an excessively
high or low speed for the current traffic and road
conditions could cause a sudden acceleration or a
deceleration of the car. Failure to comply with these
precautions may cause serious accidents and fatal
injuries.

ETTING
To Increase Or Decrease The Set Speed
After setting a speed, you can increase the set speed
by pushing the SET (+) button, or decrease speed by
pushing the SET (-) button.
U.S. Speed (mph)
●
Pushing the SET (+), or SET (-) button once will result
in a 1 mph speed adjustment. Each subsequent tap
of the button results in an adjustment of 1 mph.
●
If the button is continually pushed, the set speed
will continue to adjust in 5 mph increments until the
button is released. The new set speed is reflected in
the instrument cluster display.
Metric Speed (km/h)
●
Pushing the SET (+), or SET (-) button once will result
in a 1 km/h speed adjustment. Each subsequent tap
of the button results in an adjustment of 1 km/h.
●
If the button is continually pushed, the set speed will
continue to adjust in 10 km/h increments until the
button is released. The new set speed is reflected in
the instrument cluster display.
NOTE:
When you override and push the SET (+) button or SET
(-) button, the new set speed will be the current speed
of the vehicle.
When ACC Is Active
●
When you use the SET (-) button to decelerate, if
the engine's braking power does not slow the vehicle
sufficiently to reach the set speed, the brake system
will automatically slow the vehicle.
●
The ACC system decelerates the vehicle to a full stop
when following the vehicle in front. If your vehicle
follows the vehicle in front to a standstill, after two
seconds 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.
●
The ACC system maintains set speed when driving
uphill and downhill. However, a slight speed
change on moderate hills is normal. In addition,
downshifting may occur while climbing uphill or
descending downhill. This is normal operation and
necessary to maintain set speed. When driving
uphill and downhill, the ACC system will cancel
if the braking temperature exceeds normal range
(overheated).

The Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control system allows
you to set a speed limit that matches the road sign
detected by the Traffic Sign Recognition system
page
76. When a new speed limit is recognized, the
TSR system will propose the new limit, and it will be
displayed as a message on the instrument panel.
To accept the new limit, the driver can press the RES
button to adjust the Adaptive Cruise Control speed to
the speed suggested by the road sign.
The activation of the Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control
is indicated by the
indicator light on the display and
a green circle around the speed limit sign.

The system has the capability to slow down the car to
a complete stop when the vehicle in front of it reduces
speed and comes to a stop. It can automatically restart
the car if it stops and the vehicle in front resumes
within 2 seconds. If the vehicle ahead restarts after 2
seconds, you will need to press the RES button or the
accelerator pedal to reactivate the system and restart.
If the target vehicle does not start moving within 2
seconds of your vehicle coming to a standstill, the
ACC with Stop system will cancel and the brakes
