visual alert even if a vehicle is in the ACC with LSF range.

the system resumes the set speed.
■
A vehicle detected ahead is within ACC with LSF range and slows to a stop
uuWhen DrivinguAdaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low Speed Follow (LSF)
When driving at about 22 mph (35 km/h) or
above: Your vehicle maintains the set speed
without having to keep your foot on the brake
or accelerator pedal.
If there previously was a vehicle detected
ahead that kept your vehicle from travelling at
the set speed, ACC with LSF accelerates your
vehicle to the set speed, and then maintains it.
When driving under about 22 mph (35 km/h)
and no vehicle is detected ahead: ACC with LSF
automatically cancels. The beeper sounds once.
Your vehicle also stops, automatically. The
Stopped message appears on the multi-
information display.
When the vehicle ahead of you starts again,
the vehicle icon on the MID blinks. If you press
the RES/+/SET/– switch up or down, or
depress the accelerator pedal, ACC with LSF
operates again within the prior set speed.

is moving.

Motorcycles or other small vehicles are ahead of
you.
