STARTING AND DRIVING
• When the front vehicle is turning at a speed below 5km/h, the
ACC stops to follow it.
Auto Braking
For short stay related to slow motion at slow traffic or traffic lights, if
the stay is less than 3s, the driving resumes automatically. If the front
vehicle starts to move after a long period of time, then the ACC will
be set to STANDBY mode by auto braking.
Enable the ACC by one of the following methods:
• Press steering wheel button.
• Depress the accelerator pedal.
The ACC allows the vehicle to stop for at most 1O min. Then the
parking brake will be applied, and the ACC will be disabled. The
ACC can be enabled only when the parking brake is released.
Cancel auto braking
In some cases, the auto braking stops after it is stationary, and the ACC
enters Into the STANDBY mode. This will cause the brake to be
released, and the vehicle may start to move, so the driver shall intervene
and brake manually to maintain the original state.
This may occur under the following conditions:
• Place your foot on the brake pedal.
• Apply the parking brake.
• Shift to P, N or R gear.
• The ACC is set to the STANDBY mode by the driver.
Auto Activation of Parking Brake
Under some circumstances, apply the parking brake to stop the vehicle.
This may occur when the ACC keeps the vehicle stationary, and:
• The driver door is open or the driver seat belt is unfastened.
• The ACC keeps the vehicle stationary for about more than 5min.
• The brake is hot.
• The engine is OFF.
STARTING AND DRIVING
Restrictions for ACC
The ACC will be restricted under some situations. Always use the ACC
on level roads. When driving on the steep downhill under heavy load, it
is hard to keep a correct distance between your vehicle and the front
vehicle by this function, in this case, you shall take particular care and get
ready for braking.
Applying Cruise Control on a Ramp
The performance of cruise control system on a ramp depends on
vehicle speed, load and gradient of the ramp. When the vehicle runs
uphill, it may be required to depress the accelerator pedal to maintain
the vehicle speed. When the vehicle runs downhill, it may be required to
brake or shift to a low gear to maintain the vehicle speed.
