Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control

Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control is a driving support system that is intended to assist driv-
ers when driving on an expressway (including during congestion and when driving at high
speed). The Adaptive Cruise Control (

automatically controlling the accelerator, brake, and steering.
Adaptive Cruise Control
Adaptive Cruise Control is a driving support system intended to allow more comfortable
driving on expressways, freeways and interstate highways. The stereo camera detects vehi-
cles in front that are driving in the same traffic lane, and your vehicle follows the vehicle in
front (up to the maximum speed of the set vehicle speed). While following, your vehicle will
automatically maintain a following distance that corresponds to the speed of the vehicle in
front. When the vehicle in front comes to a complete stop, your vehicle will also be stopped
and the electronic parking brake will be automatically applied. The vehicle is capable of
being controlled at a speed between 0 mph (0 km/h) and approximately 90 mph (145 km/h).
Please remember that you should not exceed posted speed limits.
• This system does not provide the driver with an automatic driving function that
handles all traffic conditions.
• Do not rely excessively on Adaptive Cruise Control. This system is not
intended to assist in driving when the driver is not paying full attention to what
is ahead of him/her due to distractions or a lack of concentration while driving,
or under conditions of poor visibility. It is not intended to prevent rear-end col-
lisions.
Strive for safe driving at all times. Always maintain a safe following distance
behind the vehicle in front of you, pay attention to your surroundings and the
driving conditions, and operate the brake pedal and take other actions as nec-
essary.
• When using Adaptive Cruise Control, always set the speed according to the
speed limit, traffic flow, road conditions, and other conditions.
• Before using the system, perform a daily inspection and verify that there are
no malfunctions of the tires or brakes.
