To Cancel
The following conditions cancel ACC:
 The brake pedal is applied
 The CANC (cancel) button is pushed
 The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) activates
 The gear selector is removed from the DRIVE position
 The Electronic Stability Control/Traction Control
System (ESC/TCS) activates
 The vehicle parking brake is applied
 The Trailer Sway Control (TSC) activates
 The driver switches ESC to Full Off mode
 The braking temperature exceeds normal range
(overheated)
 Driver seat belt is unbuckled at low speeds
 Driver door is opened at low speeds
To Turn Off
The system will turn off and clear the set speed in memory
if:
 The Mode button is pushed
 The ignition is placed in the OFF position
To Resume
If ACC was canceled, and there is a set speed in memory,
push the RES (resume) button and remove your foot from
the accelerator pedal. The instrument cluster display will
show the last set speed.
Resume can be used at any speed above 0 mph (0 km/h)
when ACC is active.
NOTE:
ACC cannot be resumed if there is a stationary vehicle in
front of your vehicle in close proximity.
WARNING!
The Resume function should only be used if traffic and
road conditions permit. Resuming a set speed that is
too high or too low for prevailing traffic and road
conditions could cause the vehicle to accelerate or
decelerate too sharply for safe operation. Failure to
follow these warnings can result in a collision and death
or serious personal injury.
To Vary The Speed Setting
To Increase Or Decrease The Set Speed
After setting a speed, you can adjust the speed by pushing
the SET switch upward or decrease the speed by pushing
the SET switch downward.
U.S. Speed (mph)
 Pushing the SET switch upward or downward to the first
detent will result in a 1 mph speed adjustment. Each
subsequent movement of the switch to the first detent
will result in an adjustment of 1 mph.
 If the switch is pushed upward or downward briefly to
the second detent, the set speed will adjust in 5 mph
increments. The new set speed is reflected in the
instrument cluster display.
STARTING AND OPERATING
 If the switch is held upward or downward, the set speed
will continue to adjust until the switch is released.
Metric Speed (km/h)
 Pushing the SET switch upward or downward to the first
detent will result in a 1 km/h speed adjustment. Each
subsequent movement of the switch to the first detent
will result in an adjustment of 1 km/h.
 If the switch is pushed upward or downward briefly to
the second detent, the set speed will adjust in 10 km/h
increments. The new set speed is reflected in the instru-
ment cluster display.
 If the switch is held upward or downward, the set speed
will continue to adjust until the switch is released.
NOTE:
 When you override the set speed by pushing the SET
switch upward or downward, the new set speed will be
the current speed of the vehicle.
 When you use the SET switch to decelerate, if the
engine's braking power does not slow the vehicle suffi-
ciently to reach the set speed, the brake system will
automatically slow the vehicle.
 The ACC system maintains set speed when driving
uphill and downhill. However, a slight speed change on
moderate hills is normal. In addition, downshifting may
occur while climbing uphill or descending downhill. This
is normal operation and necessary to maintain set
speed. When driving uphill and downhill, the ACC
system will cancel if the braking temperature exceeds
normal range (overheated).
