Deactivation; Adaptive Cruise Control (Acc); Activation; Setting A Desired Speed - Jeep grand cherokee 2017 User Manual

Deactivation

A soft tap on the brake pedal, pushing the
CANC button, or normal brake pressure while
slowing the vehicle will deactivate the Speed
Control without erasing the set speed from
memory.
Pushing the on/off button or turning the igni-
tion switch OFF erases the set speed from
memory.
ADAPTIVE CRUISE
CONTROL (ACC)
If your vehicle is equipped with Adaptive
Cruise Control, the controls operate exactly
the same as the speed control with only a
couple of differences. With this option you
can set a specified distance you would like to
maintain between you and the vehicle in front
of you.
Adaptive Cruise Switches
1 — Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) On/Off
2 — Distance Setting – Decrease
3 — Distance Setting – Increase
If the ACC sensor detects a vehicle ahead,
ACC will apply limited braking or acceleration
automatically to maintain a preset following
distance, while matching the speed of the
vehicle ahead.
If the sensor does not detect a vehicle ahead
of you, ACC will maintain a fixed set speed.

Activation

Push and release the Adaptive Cruise Control
(ACC) on/off button.
ACC READY will appear in the instrument
cluster display to indicate the ACC is on.

Setting A Desired Speed

When the vehicle reaches the speed desired,
push the SET (+) button or the SET (-) button
and release. The instrument cluster display
will show the set speed.
If the system is set when the vehicle speed is
below 20 mph (32 km/h), the set speed shall
be defaulted to 20 mph (32 km/h). If the
system is set when the vehicle speed is above
20 mph (32 km/h), the set speed shall be the
current speed of the vehicle.
NOTE:
ACC cannot be set if there is a stationary
vehicle in front of your vehicle in close prox-
imity.
