NOTE:
• When you override and push the SET (+) button or SET (-) buttons, the new set speed will be
the current speed of the vehicle.
• When you use the SET (-) button to decelerate, if the powertrain braking power does not slow
the vehicle sufficiently to reach the set speed, the brake system will automatically slow the
vehicle.
• The ACC system decelerates the vehicle to a full stop when following a target vehicle. If an
ACC host vehicle follows a target vehicle to a standstill, after two seconds the driver will either
have to push the RES (resume) button, or apply the accelerator pedal to reengage the ACC
to the existing set speed.
• The ACC system maintains set speed when driving up hill and down hill. However, a slight
speed change on moderate hills are normal. In addition, downshifting may occur while
climbing uphill or descending downhill. This is normal operation and necessary to maintain set
speed. When driving up hill and down hill, the ACC system will cancel if the braking
temperature exceeds normal range (overheated).
Distance Setting (ACC Only)
The specified following distance for ACC can be set by varying the distance setting between four
bars (longest), three bars (long), two bars (medium) and one bar (short). Using this distance
setting and the vehicle speed, ACC calculates and sets the distance to the vehicle ahead. This
distance setting displays in the instrument cluster display.
• To increase the distance setting, push the Distance Setting—Increase button and release. Each
time the button is pushed, the distance setting increases by one bar (longer).
• To decrease the distance setting, push the Distance Setting—Decrease button and release.
Each time the button is pushed, the distance setting decreases by one bar (shorter).

ACC Operation At Stop

If the ACC system brings your vehicle to a standstill while following a target vehicle, if the target
vehicle starts moving within two seconds of your vehicle coming to a standstill, your vehicle will
resume motion without the need for any driver action.
If the target vehicle does not start moving within two seconds of your vehicle coming to a
standstill, the driver will either have to push the RES (resume) button, or apply the accelerator
pedal to reengage the ACC. The vehicle will accelerate to the existing set speed.
NOTE:
After the ACC system holds your vehicle at a standstill for approximately three consecutive
minutes, the parking brake will be activated, and the ACC system will be cancelled.
While the ACC system is holding your vehicle at a standstill, if the driver seatbelt is unbuckled or
the driver door is opened, the parking brake will be activated, and the ACC system will be
cancelled.
