DRIVING
Anything covers the radar sensor cover or the area around the front sensor
camera preventing detection of a vehicle in front. May appear when driving
in bad weather (rain, snow, fog, etc.).
• Stop your vehicle in a safe place and clear the area using a soft cloth.
• Have your vehicle checked by a dealer if the message does not disappear
even after you clean the area.
Camera Temperature Too High
The temperature inside the front sensor camera is too high.
• Use the climate control system to cool the interior. Defroster mode will
direct airflow toward the camera.

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low Speed Follow

Helps maintain a constant vehicle speed and a set following interval behind a
vehicle detected ahead of yours and, if the detected vehicle comes to a stop,
can decelerate and stop your vehicle, without you having to keep your foot on
the brake or the accelerator. When ACC with Low Speed Follow slows your
vehicle by applying the brakes, your vehicle's brake lights will illuminate.

During Operation

If a vehicle is detected ahead of you
when ACC is turned on, the system
maintains, accelerates, or decelerates
your vehicle's set speed to keep the
vehicle's set following interval from
the vehicle ahead.
If a vehicle detected ahead of you
slows down abruptly, or if another
vehicle cuts in front of you, a beep
sounds and BRAKE appears on the
multi-information display to alert you .
ACC with Low Speed Follow has limited braking capability and may not
stop your vehicle in time to avoid a collision with a vehicle that quickly
stops in front of you.
Always be prepared to apply the brake pedal when conditions require.
