To set Adaptive Cruise Control, do the following:
1. Make sure the Head-Up Display (HUD) is on and
properly adjusted. See Head-Up Display (HUD) on
page 3-34 for more information.
2. Move the switch to on.
3. Get up to the speed you want.
4. Press in the set button at the end of the lever and
release it.
5. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal.
Once Adaptive Cruise Control is set, it may immediately
apply the brakes if it detects a vehicle ahead is
too close or moving slower than your vehicle.
This symbol will appear on
the Head-Up Display
(HUD) to indicate that
Adaptive Cruise Control is
active. See Head-Up
Display (HUD) on
page 3-34 for more
information.
Make sure the set speed is visible on the HUD so you
know the speed your vehicle will accelerate to if a
vehicle is not detected in your path. Keep in mind speed
limits, surrounding traffic speeds and weather conditions
when adjusting your set speed.
If your vehicle is in Adaptive Cruise Control when the
traction control system begins to limit wheel spin, the
Adaptive Cruise Control will automatically disengage.
See Traction Control System (TCS) on page 5-9 and
StabiliTrak
®
System on page 5-11. When road conditions
allow you to safely use it again, you may turn the
Adaptive Cruise Control back on.
