Jeep Grand Cherokee Operating Information Manual page 115

Distance Setting 3 Bars (Long)
Distance Setting 2 Bars (Medium)
Distance Setting 1 Bar (Short)
To increase the distance setting, push the Dis-
tance 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 re-
lease. Each time the button is pushed, the
distance setting decreases by one bar (shorter).
If there is no vehicle ahead, the vehicle will
maintain the set speed. If a slower moving
vehicle is detected in the same lane, the DID
displays the "Sensed Vehicle Indicator" icon,
and the system adjusts vehicle speed automati-
cally to maintain the distance setting, regard-
less of the set speed.
The vehicle will then maintain the set distance
until:
• The vehicle ahead accelerates to a speed
above the set speed.
• The vehicle ahead moves out of your lane or
view of the sensor.
• The distance setting is changed.
• The system disengages. (Refer to the infor-
mation on ACC Activation).
The maximum braking applied by ACC is lim-
ited; however, the driver can always apply the
brakes manually, if necessary.
NOTE:
The brake lights will illuminate whenever the
ACC system applies the brakes.
A Proximity Warning will alert the driver if ACC
predicts that its maximum braking level is not
sufficient to maintain the set distance. If this
occurs, a visual alert "BRAKE" will flash in the
DID and a chime will sound while ACC contin-
ues to apply its maximum braking capacity.
