WARNING!
•
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a convenience
system. It is not a substitute for active driving in-
volvement. It is always the driver’s responsibility to
be attentive of road, traffic, and weather conditions,
vehicle speed, distance to the vehicle ahead; and,
most importantly, brake operation to ensure safe
operation 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, oncoming ve-
hicles, and stationary objects (e.g., a stopped
vehicle in a traffic jam or a disabled vehicle).

WARNING! (Continued)
– Cannot take street, traffic, and weather condi-
tions into account, and may be limited upon
adverse sight distance conditions.
– Does not predict the lane curvature or the move-
ment of preceding vehicles and will not compen-
sate for such changes.
– Does not always fully recognize complex driving
conditions, which can result in wrong or missing
distance warnings.
– Can only apply a maximum of 25% of the vehi-
cle’s braking capability, and will not bring the
vehicle to a complete stop.
