Adaptive Cruise Control System (ACC)*
Starting and driving 7-55

E00634701079
While the ACC is active, if your vehicle
approaches too closely to a vehicle in front
because the ACC cannot allow for an ade-
quate deceleration in such cases as rapid
deceleration of the vehicle in front or appari-
tion of a vehicle cutting in front of your vehi-
cle, the ACC gives a warning by sounding a
buzzer and displaying a message.
If this happens, increase the following dis-
tance by depressing the brake pedal or mak-
ing other decelerating control.
• When driving on a curve.

If the vehicle in front turns off or changes
lane and another stationary vehicle is
located in front of that vehicle, the ACC
will not make deceleration control to the
stationary vehicle.
