Set Button

your Adaptive Cruise Control settings may not be
visible. You could forget your settings and be
startled by Adaptive Cruise Control response
and even lose control. Keep your HUD on and
properly adjusted when using Adaptive Cruise
Control.
If the cruise button is on when not in use, it could get
bumped and go into cruise when not desired. Keep the
cruise control switch off when cruise is not being used.
The set speed is selected by the driver. This is the
speed you will travel if there is no vehicle detected in
your path.
