Controlling ACC distance
Controlling ACC distance
After the vehicle power switch is set to “ON”
position, when ACC is activated, the default
distance setting is in the fourth range (the
following distance in the fourth range is the
farthest).
By pressing the button
, the distance
setting can be changed in the order of “first
range → second range → third range → fourth
range” and “fourth range → third range →
second range → first range”. At the same time,
the instrument cluster will display the same
number of cross bars as the ordinal number of
the range.
Activating ACC after following stop
When following a vehicle ahead, your vehicle
will also be stopped if the vehicle ahead is
stopped. During a certain period after such
stop, ACC will keep your vehicle stationary
by active pressurization of ESP; after this
period, ACC will keep your vehicle stationary
by activating EPB. When the vehicle in front
drives off, the ACC may be activated as
follows:
1. If the blue ACC indicator lamp comes
on, ACC can be reset actively and re-
drive the vehicle after the vehicle ahead is
driven off.
2. If the gray ACC indicator lamp
comes on and EPB is not activated,
the instrument cluster will display the
message “Waiting for ACC”; if there is a
vehicle ahead, ACC can be reactivated by
moving up the multi-function “OK” button
or depressing the accelerator pedal; if
there is no vehicle ahead, for the sake
of safety, ACC can be reactivated by
depressing the accelerator pedal.
3. If the gray ACC indicator lamp
comes
on and EPB is activated, ACC may be
reset and re-drive the vehicle by releasing
EPB first and then moving up the multi-
function “OK” button.
System limitations
ACC is subject to limitation of physical laws,
and thus in some driving environments, the
driver may feel a response lag of ACC or
may fail to control the vehicle as expected;
therefore, the driver must always be ready to
take over the vehicle.
The following conditions will affect functions
of the radar, so the driver must be particularly
alert under these conditions:
1. Decelerating to stop. If a vehicle ahead
is stopped by emergency braking, ACC
will also decelerate your vehicle or send
a hands-on operation request. The driver
should actively intervene in the brake
according to the hands-on operation
request to stop your vehicle completely.
