If system does not detect the presence
of any vehicles ahead, only the bars
referred to set distance will be
displayed.
When system detects the presence of a
vehicle ahead, it is displayed in front
of the bars (see example in the figure).
To increase or decrease the number of
bars, corresponding to the gap from
vehicle ahead, press and release the
distance setting button.
Each press and release of the button
changes the gap starting from 3 bars
(default distance) and moving in a
sequential way towards the minimum
distance: 3
→
2
→
1
→
4
→

→

→

→
4 and so
on.
If there is no vehicle ahead, the
vehicle will maintain the set speed. If a
slower moving vehicle is detected in
the same lane, the system displays the
target vehicle icon before the bars.
From that moment, the system adjusts
the vehicle speed automatically to
maintain the distance setting,
regardless of the set speed.
The vehicle will then maintain the set
distance until:
• The vehicle ahead accelerates to a
speed above the set speed.
• The vehicle ahead moves out of the
lane or view of the sensor.
• The distance setting is changed.
• The driver disables the system.
The maximum braking applied by ACC
is limited; however, the driver can
always apply the brakes manually, if
necessary. Obviously, any time the ACC
system automatically operates the
brakes, the brake lights will turn on as
if the driver was braking.
A Proximity Warning on display will
alert the driver if ACC predicts that its
maximum braking level is not
sufficient to maintain the set distance.
If this occurs, a visual alert will flash
on the display and a chime will sound
while ACC continues to apply its
maximum braking capacity.
