ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL
(ACC) — IF EQUIPPED
System Description
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a driver
assist system that combines the speed
control functions with maintaining the
distance from the vehicle ahead.
The system allows to set and hold the
vehicle at the desired speed without
needing to press the accelerator. It also
allows to set and hold a distance from the
vehicle ahead (these settings are set by
the driver).
The Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
system uses a radar sensor located
behind the front bumper and a camera
located in the center/upper part of the
windshield, to detect the presence of a
vehicle close ahead.

Windshield Camera Location
This system enhances driving comfort
while on the highway or out of town with
light traffic.
If the sensor does not detect a vehicle
ahead, the system will maintain a fixed
set speed.
If the sensor detects a vehicle ahead, the
system automatically intervenes by
braking (or accelerating) slightly in order
keep the set distance while not
exceeding the original set speed, seeking
to adapt to the speed of the vehicle
ahead.
