Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) increases the
driving convenience provided by cruise control
while traveling on highways and major
roadways. However, it is not a safety system
and not designed to prevent collisions. Speed
Control function performs differently. Please
refer to the proper section within this chapter.
ACC will allow you to keep cruise control
engaged in light to moderate traffic conditions
without the constant need to reset your cruise
control. ACC utilizes a radar sensor and a
forward facing camera designed to detect a
vehicle directly ahead of you.
NOTE:
If the sensor does not detect a vehicle ahead

of you, ACC will maintain a fixed set speed.
If the ACC sensor detects a vehicle ahead,

ACC will apply limited braking or accelerate
(not to exceed the original set speed) auto-
matically to maintain a preset following
distance, while matching the speed of the
vehicle ahead.
The Cruise Control system has two control
modes:
Adaptive Cruise Control mode for main-

taining an appropriate distance between
vehicles.
Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control mode

for cruising at a constant preset speed. For
additional information, refer to "Normal
(Fixed Speed) Cruise Control Mode" in this
section.
