Adaptive Cruise Control System (ACC)*
WARNING
l
This system may not correctly detect the
actual situation depending on the type of

weather conditions, and the road condi-
tions.
Additionally, the system may be unable to
decelerate sufficiently if the vehicle in
front applies the brakes suddenly or an-
6
other vehicle cuts into your path, so your
vehicle approaches the front vehicle.
Improper usage of this system or loss of
attention to the front by the over-rely on
the ACC, may result in a serious accident.

become transiently unable to detect a vehicle
in front or triggers its control and alarm
functions by detecting something other than
a vehicle in front.
