Following a Vehicle
WARNINGS
When following a vehicle in front of
you, your vehicle will not decelerate
automatically to a stop, nor will your vehicle
always decelerate quickly enough to avoid
a crash without driver intervention. Always
apply the brakes when necessary. Failing to
do so may result in a crash, serious injury or
death.
Adaptive cruise control only warns of
vehicles detected by the radar sensor.
In some cases there may be no warning or
a delayed warning. You should always apply
the brakes when necessary. Failing to do so
may result in a crash, serious injury or death.
Note: The brakes may emit a sound when
modulated by the adaptive cruise control
system.
When a vehicle ahead of you enters the
same lane or a slower vehicle is ahead in the
same lane, the vehicle speed adjusts to
maintain a preset gap distance. The distance
setting is adjustable.
