uuWhen DrivinguAdaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
■
There is no vehicle ahead
Your vehicle cruises at the set speed.
■
A vehicle ahead is within ACC range and going slower than the set speed
Your vehicle slows down, and maintains the same speed as the speed of the vehicle
ahead to maintain the set following distance.
■
A vehicle ahead is within ACC range and going at a steady speed
Your vehicle follows the vehicle ahead of it, keeping a constant distance, without
going beyond the set speed.
■
A vehicle ahead goes out of range
ACC accelerates your vehicle to the set speed, and then maintains it.
■
When you depress the accelerator pedal
You can temporarily increase the vehicle speed. In this case, there is no audible or
visual alerts even if a vehicle is in ACC range.
ACC stays on unless you cancel it. Once you release the accelerator pedal, the
system resumes the set speed.

1When in Operation
Limitations
Be aware that ACC has limitations. For example, it is
not designed to operate when a vehicle ahead of
yours is going slower than 13 mph (20 km/h) or is
parked. Smaller vehicles, such as motorcycles, may
also be difficult for the system to detect depending
on their size.
You must always be prepared to use the brake pedal
to maintain a safe distance with other vehicles.
ACC may momentarily apply brakes or sound an alert
if there is a vehicle or building adjacent to your
vehicle and:
•
You make a sudden turn or are driving on a narrow
road.
•
You abruptly move the steering wheel.
•
Your vehicle is unusually positioned within your
lane (e.g., at a slight diagonal to the lane direction).
