Starting and driving
Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control
mode operation
The vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is
designed to maintain a selected distance and
reduce the speed to match the slower vehicle
ahead; the system will decelerate the vehicle as
necessary and if the vehicle ahead comes to a
stop, the vehicle decelerates to a standstill.
However, the ACC system can only apply up to
approximately 40% of the vehicle’s total
braking power. This system should only be
used when traffic conditions allow vehicle
speeds to remain fairly constant or when vehicle
speeds change gradually. If a vehicle moves into
the traveling lane ahead or if a vehicle traveling
ahead rapidly decelerates, the distance between
vehicles may become closer because the ACC
system cannot decelerate the vehicle quickly
enough. If this occurs, the ACC system will
sound a warning chime and blink the system
display to notify the driver to take necessary
action.
The system will cancel and a warning chime
will sound if the speed is below approximately
15 MPH (24 km/h) and a vehicle is not detected
ahead.
See “Approach warning” (P.5-80).
The following items are controlled in the
vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode:
.
When there are no vehicles traveling ahead,
the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode
maintains the speed set by the driver. The
set speed range is between approximately
20 and 90 MPH (30 and 144 km/h).
.
When there is a vehicle traveling ahead, the
vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode
adjusts the speed to maintain the distance,
selected by driver, from the vehicle ahead.
The adjusting speed range is up to the set
speed. If the vehicle ahead comes to a stop,
the vehicle decelerates to a standstill within
the limitations of the system. The system
will cancel once it judges a standstill with a
warning chime.
.
When the vehicle traveling ahead has
moved out from its lane of travel, the
vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode
accelerates and maintains vehicle speed up
to the set speed.
The ACC system does not control vehicle speed
or warn you when you approach stationary and
slow moving vehicles. You must pay attention
to vehicle operation to maintain proper distance
from vehicles ahead when approaching toll
gates or traffic congestion.
SSD0254
When driving on the highway at a set speed and
approaching a slower traveling vehicle ahead,
the ACC system will adjust the speed to
maintain the distance, selected by the driver,
from the vehicle ahead. If the vehicle ahead
changes lanes or exits the freeway, the ACC
system will accelerate and maintain the speed
up to the set speed. Pay attention to the driving
operation to maintain control of the vehicle as it
accelerates to the set speed.
The vehicle may not maintain the set speed on
winding or hilly roads. If this occurs, you will
have to manually control the vehicle speed.
Normally when controlling the distance to a
vehicle ahead, this system automatically accel-
erates or decelerates your vehicle according to
