Metric Speed (km/h)
• Pushing the SET
(-)
button once will result in a 1 km/h
decrease in set speed. Each subsequent tap of the button
results in a decrease of 1 km/h.
• If the button is continually pushed, the set speed will
continue to decrease in 10 km/h decrements until the
button is released. The decrease in set speed is reflected in
the instrument cluster display.
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 decelerate, if the
engine’s braking power does not slow the vehicle suffi
-
ciently to reach the set speed, the brake system will auto
-
matically slow the vehicle.
• If equipped with a manual transmission, the ACC system
applies the brake down to 15 mph (24 km/h) when
following a target vehicle.
• If equipped with a automatic transmission, The ACC
system decelerates the vehicle to a full stop when
following a target vehicle. If an ACC host vehicle follows a
target vehicle to a standstill, after two seconds the driver
will either have to push the RES (resume) button, or apply
the accelerator pedal to reengage the ACC to the existing
set speed.
• The ACC system maintains set speed when driving uphill
and downhill. However, a slight speed change on
moderate hills is normal. In addition, downshifting may
occur while climbing uphill or descending downhill. This
is normal operation and necessary to maintain set speed.
When driving uphill and downhill, the ACC system will
cancel if the braking temperature exceeds normal range
(overheated).
