CAUTION
If the driver operates the brake pedal during automatic braking, the pedal may
feel stiff; however, this is not a malfunction. By depressing the brake pedal fur-
ther you can apply more braking force. When the brake pedal is released it will
return to its original condition.
NOTE
• When the brakes are applied by Adaptive Cruise Control, the vehicle's brake
lights will illuminate.
• Even if there is no lead vehicle present, on a downhill grade, the Adaptive
Cruise Control's automatic brake may operate in order to maintain the set
vehicle speed.
• Some noises may be audible during automatic braking. This is caused by the
braking control and does not indicate a malfunction.
• To temporarily accelerate quickly, use the accelerator pedal. After accelerat-
ing, the vehicle will gradually return to the set vehicle speed shown in the set
vehicle speed display.
• If the vehicle in front is no longer detected while your vehicle is still controlled
by the automatic braking operation, the brake will be automatically released
gradually. Depress the accelerator pedal if necessary.
• The lead-vehicle following function has the following characteristics:
- If the lead vehicle's brake lights are detected, deceleration will start earlier
than without detection.
- If the vehicle moves to the fast lane while traveling more than 37 mph (60
km/h), the system starts acceleration to the set vehicle speed more quickly
because it is linked with the turn signal.
