WARNING!
•
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a conve-
nience system. It is not a substitute for active
driving involvement. It is always the driver’s
responsibility to be attentive of road, traffic,
and weather conditions, vehicle speed, dis-
tance to the vehicle ahead; and, most impor-
tantly, brake operation to ensure safe opera-
tion of the vehicle under all road conditions.
Your complete attention is always required
while driving to maintain safe control of your
vehicle. Failure to follow these warnings can
result in a collision and death or serious
personal injury.
•
The ACC system:
•
Does not react to pedestrians, oncom-
ing vehicles, and stationary objects
(e.g., a stopped vehicle in a traffic jam
or a disabled vehicle).
•
Cannot take street, traffic, and weather
conditions into account, and may be lim-
ited upon adverse sight distance condi-
tions.

WARNING! (Continued)
•
Does not always fully recognize com-
plex driving conditions, which can result
in wrong or missing distance warnings.
•
Will bring the vehicle to a complete stop
while following a target vehicle and hold
the vehicle for 2 seconds in the stop
position. If the target vehicle does not
start moving within two seconds the
ACC system will display a message that
the system will release the brakes and
that the brakes must be applied manu-
ally. An audible chime will sound when
the brakes are released.
You should switch off the ACC system:
•
When driving in fog, heavy rain, heavy
snow, sleet, heavy traffic, and complex
driving situations (i.e., in highway con-
struction zones).
(Continued)
WARNING! (Continued)

ing, icy, snow-covered, slippery, or have
steep uphill or downhill slopes.
•
When towing a trailer up or down steep
slopes.
•
When circumstances do not allow safe
driving at a constant speed.
