108 STARTING AND OPERATING
If either system is set when the vehicle speed is above
20 mph (32 km/h), the set speed shall be the current
speed of the vehicle.
NOTE:
 Keeping your foot on the accelerator pedal can cause
the vehicle to continue to accelerate beyond the set
speed. If this occurs, the message “DRIVER OVERRIDE”
will display in the instrument cluster display.

If you continue to accelerate beyond the set speed
while ACC is enabled, the system will not be controlling
the distance between your vehicle and the vehicle
ahead. The vehicle speed will only be determined by
the position of the accelerator pedal.
To Cancel
The following conditions cancel the ACC or Fixed Speed
Cruise Control systems:
 The brake pedal is applied

The CANC (cancel) button is pushed

The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) activates

The gear selector is removed from the DRIVE position
 The Electronic Stability Control/Traction Control
System (ESC/TCS) activates
 The vehicle parking brake is applied

The Trailer Sway Control (TSC) activates

The driver switches ESC to Full Off mode

The braking temperature exceeds normal range
(overheated)
The following conditions will only cancel the ACC system:

Driver seat belt is unbuckled at low speeds

Driver door is opened at low speeds
To Turn Off
The system will turn off and clear the set speed in memory
if:

The Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) on/off button is
pushed

The Fixed Speed Cruise Control on/off button is pushed

The ignition is placed in the OFF position

4WD Low is engaged
To Resume
If there is a set speed in memory, push the RES (resume)
button and remove your foot from the accelerator pedal.
The instrument cluster display will show the last set
speed.
Resume can be used at any speed above 20 mph (32 km/h)
when only Fixed Speed Cruise Control is being used.
Resume can be used at any speed above 0 mph (0 km/h)
when ACC is active.
NOTE:

If your vehicle is at standstill longer than two seconds,
the driver will either have to push the RES (resume)
button, or apply the accelerator pedal to reengage the
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) to the existing set speed.

ACC cannot be resumed if there is a stationary vehicle
in front of your vehicle in close proximity.
To Vary The Speed Setting
To Increase Or Decrease The Set Speed
After setting a speed, you can increase the set speed by
pushing the SET (+) button, or decrease speed by pushing
the SET (-) button.
U.S. Speed (mph)

Pushing the SET (+), or SET (-) button once will result in
a 1 mph speed adjustment. Each subsequent tap of
the button results in an adjustment of 1 mph.

If the button is continually pushed, the set speed will
continue to adjust in 5 mph increments until the button
is released. The new set speed is reflected in the instru -
ment cluster display.
WARNING!
The Resume function should only be used if traffic and
road conditions permit. Resuming a set speed that is
too high or too low for prevailing traffic and road
conditions could cause the vehicle to accelerate or
decelerate too sharply for safe operation. Failure to
follow these warnings can result in a collision and death
or serious personal injury.
