Following a Vehicle
WARNINGS
When following a vehicle in front
of you, the vehicle will not
decelerate automatically to a stop,
nor will the vehicle always decelerate
quickly enough to avoid a collision
without driver intervention. Always
apply the brakes when necessary.
Failing to do so may result in a
collision, serious injury or death.
Adaptive cruise control only
warns of vehicles detected by
the radar sensor. In some cases there
may be no warning or the warning
may be delayed. The driver should
always apply the brakes when
necessary. Failing to do so may result
in a collision, serious injury or death.
Note: The brakes may emit a sound
when they are being modulated by the
adaptive cruise control system.
When a vehicle ahead of you enters
the same lane or a slower vehicle is
ahead in the same lane, the vehicle
speed will adjust automatically to
maintain a preset gap distance. The
distance setting is adjustable.
The lead vehicle graphic will be
illuminated.
The vehicle will maintain a constant
distance between the vehicle ahead
until:
•
the vehicle in front of you
accelerates to a speed above the
set speed
• the vehicle in front of you moves
out of your lane or out of view
