Smart Cruise Control disabled
OMQ4050144R
When the front radar cover or sensor is
covered with snow, rain, or foreign
material, it can reduce the detecting per-
formance and temporarily limit or dis-
able Smart Cruise Control. If this occurs,
a warning message will appear on the
cluster (it is turned off after a certain
period of time). Smart Cruise Control will
operate normally when snow, rain or for-
eign material is removed. Always keep it
clean.
WARNING
Even though the warning message does
not appear on the cluster, Smart Cruise
Control may not properly operate.
CAUTION
Smart Cruise Control may not properly
operate in an area (e.g. open terrain),
where there is nothing to detect after
turning ON the engine.
