CAUTION:
•
On winding roads, Adaptive Cruise Control
may not detect a vehicle ahead. You could
crash into a vehicle ahead of you. Do not
use Adaptive Cruise Control on winding
roads.
•
Adaptive Cruise Control may not have time
to slow your vehicle enough to avoid a
crash when you are driving in conditions
where vehicles may suddenly slow or stop
ahead of you, enter your lane, or cross your
vehicle’s path. If you are driving in these
conditions, do not use Adaptive Cruise
Control. The warning beep and alert symbol
may indicate that you are driving in
conditions where Adaptive Cruise Control
should not be used. See “Alerting the
Driver” in this section.
•
On slippery roads, fast changes in tire
traction can cause needless wheel spinning,
and you could lose control. Do not use
cruise control on slippery roads.

to adapt to the changing traffic conditions.

is low.
Some of the Adaptive
Cruise controls are located
on the end of the
multifunction lever.
