message will reappear if the tire
pressure has not been corrected.

You may notice during cooler
conditions that the low tire pressure
warning light will appear when the
vehicle is first started and then turn
off as you start to drive the vehicle.
This could be an early indicator that
your tire pressures are getting low
and need to be inflated to the proper
pressure.

See Section 5 of your Owner Manual.

Note: The Tire Pressure Monitor can alert

you about low tire pressure, but it doesn’t

replace normal monthly tire maintenance.

ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL

(if equipped)

Your XLR may be equipped with
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC). If the
lane ahead is clear, the system will
maintain the set speed the same as
conventional cruise control. When a
vehicle is detected in the same lane
in front of your car, the system will
adjust your speed to maintain a
constant following distance.

If a vehicle in your path is moving at
a significantly slower speed, the
system provides visible and audible
alerts. 

Setting Adaptive Cruise Control

ACC is set by using the multifunction

lever located on the steering column.
To activate ACC:

1. Move the cruise control switch 

to the On (

I

) position (shown

below). 

2. Achieve the speed you desire.

3. Press the button at the end of the

lever.

4. Remove your foot from the

accelerator.
