Adaptive cruise control passing
assistance
ACC can assist the driver when passing other
vehicles.
How passing assistance works
When ACC is following another vehicle and the
driver indicates that he/she is about to pass that
vehicle by using the left turn signal, ACC will
begin accelerating toward the vehicle ahead
before your vehicle has moved into the passing
lane.
The function will then delay a speed reduction to
avoid early braking as your vehicle approaches
the slower-moving vehicle.
The function is active until your vehicle has
passed the other vehicle.
WARNING
Be aware that this function may be activated
in situations other than when passing a vehi-
cle, such as if the turn signal is used to indi-
cate a lane change or to indicate a turn. The
vehicle will accelerate briefly.
Using passing assistance
To activate passing assistance:
•
Your vehicle (ACC) must be following
another vehicle (the target vehicle).
•
Current speed must be at least approx.
45 mph (70 km/h ).
•
The speed set for ACC must be high enough
to safely pass the vehicle ahead.
Starting passing assistance
To start a passing assistance sequence:
•
Activate the left turn signal.
Passing assistance limitations
WARNING
The driver should be prepared for sudden
changes when passing assistance is used. In
certain cases, there may be undesired accel-
eration.
Certain situations should be avoided, such as:
•
If the vehicle is approaching an exit to the
left or a left turn.
•
If the vehicle ahead slows down before
your vehicle has moved into the passing
lane.
•
Traffic in the passing lane slows down.
Passing assistance in these situations can be
deactivated by putting ACC in standby mode.
