Adaptive Cruise Control System (ACC)*

Depress the brake pedal as soon as your vehi-
cle comes to a stop.
When the ACC no longer detects any vehicle
in front, a buzzer sounds and the symbol of
vehicle running ahead disappears from the
screen. The vehicle is slowly accelerated to
resume the set speed and continues running at
that speed.

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.
NOTE
If you do not depress the brake pedal within
1.5 seconds after an automatic stop, you are
alerted to automatic cancellation of the ACC
by a buzzer and display message and the
ACC shift into the ‘standby state’.
The vehicle will then start creeping as the
brakes are released.
If the turn-signal lever is operated while the
ACC is active, the system may accelerate the
vehicle to assist you in passing a vehicle in
front, which reduces the distance between
your vehicle and the vehicle in front. (This
function is activated even if the Blind Spot
Warning alerts you that another vehicle is
running close to your vehicle.)
CAUTION
Never leave the vehicle during stopping by
automatic braking.
WARNING
Your vehicle may accelerate up to the set
speed in the following situations. Apply
the brake, if necessary, to slow down.
• When your vehicle no longer follows the
vehicle in front, e.g. at a freeway exit or
when your vehicle or the vehicle in front
changes its lane.
• 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.
