Using Adaptive Cruise Control on Hills
and When Towing a Trailer
How well Adaptive Cruise Control will work on hills
and when towing a trailer depends on your vehicle’s
speed, vehicle load, traffic conditions and the
steepness of the hills. It may not detect a vehicle in
your lane while driving on hills. When going up
steep hills, you may want to use the accelerator
pedal to maintain your vehicle’s speed. When going
downhill, especially when towing a trailer, you may
want to brake to keep your speed down. Applying
the brake disengages the system. You may choose
not to use Adaptive Cruise Control on steep hills,
especially when towing a trailer.
Disengaging Adaptive Cruise Control
To turn off the system, apply the brake pedal,
press the cancel button, or press the Adaptive
Cruise Control button.
Erasing Set Speed Memory
When you press the Adaptive Cruise Control
button or turn the ignition off, the set speed
memory is erased.
Other Messages
There are three additional messages that may
appear on the DIC. They are SERVICE RADAR
CRUISE, RADAR CRUISE NOT READY and
CLEAN RADAR. These messages will appear to
indicate a problem with the Adaptive Cruise
Control. See
DIC Warnings and Messages on
page 239
for more information.
Cleaning the System
The radar can become blocked by snow, ice, or
dirt. If so, you may need to turn off the engine and
clean the lens. Remember, do not use Adaptive
Cruise Control in icy conditions, or when visibility is
low, such as in fog, rain or snow.
The emblem/lens is located in the center of
the grille.
To clean the emblem/lens, wipe the surface with a
soft cloth. After cleaning the emblem/lens, try to
engage the Adaptive Cruise Control. If you
are unable to do so, see your dealer.
