To Decrease Speed
While ACC is set, the set speed can be de-
creased by pressing the SET - button.
The drivers preferred units can be selected
through
the instrument panel settings if
equipped. Refer to “ Understanding Your Instru-
ment Panel” for more information. The speed
decrement shown is dependant on the chosen
speed unit of U.S. (mph) or Metric (km/h):
U.S. Speed (mph)
•
Pressing the SET - button once will result in
a 1 mph decrease in set speed. Each subse-
quent tap of the button results in a decrease
of 1 mph.
•
If the button is continually pressed, the set
speed will continue to decrease in 5 mph
increments until the button is released. The
decrease in set speed is reflected in the DID.
Metric Speed (km/h)
•
Pressing the SET - button once will result in
a 1 km/h decrease in set speed. Each sub-
sequent tap of the button results in a de-
crease of 1 km/h.
•
If the button is continually pressed, the set
speed will continue to decrease in 10 km/h
increments until the button is released. The
decrease in set speed is reflected in the DID.
NOTE:
•
When you override and push the SET +
button or SET - buttons, the new Set
Speed will be the current speed of the
vehicle.
•
When you use the SET - button to decel-
erate, if the engine’s braking power does
not slow the vehicle sufficiently to reach
the set speed, the brake system will auto-
matically slow the vehicle.
•
The ACC system applies the brake down
to 15 mph (24 km/h) when following a
target vehicle.
•
The ACC system maintains set speed
when driving up hill and down hill. How-
ever, a slight speed change on moderate
hills is normal. In addition, downshifting
may occur while climbing uphill or de-
scending downhill. This is normal opera-
tion and necessary to maintain set speed.
When driving up hill and down hill, the
ACC system will cancel if the braking
temperature
exceeds normal range
(overheated).
