Driver Assistance Features

  Warnings: 

See 

Driver Assistance Systems

 in your Owner’s Manual for more detailed information and for important safety warnings.

Adaptive Cruise Control

Applies to vehicles with Adaptive Cruise feature. This feature is not a substitute for attentive driving. 

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) helps maintain an individually stored constant speed and a previously set distance 

between your vehicle and those in front of you. When you approach a slower moving vehicle in front of you, the 

vehicle may brake if the situation requires. When the vehicle is no longer present, ACC will accelerate back to the 

stored speed. You can set the speed-dependent distance from the vehicle ahead to one of five levels.

 

When the ACC button is pressed to activate ACC, the  

  indicator light illuminates in the instrument cluster. 

 

To change the ACC distance interval, press the  

  button to cycle through the distance intervals. When the 

shortest interval is reached, the distance returns to the greatest interval when the button is pressed again.

 

When the Adaptive Cruise Control system brings the vehicle to a stop, briefly press the accelerator pedal or press 
RES on the multi-function steering wheel to resume Adaptive Cruise Control.
