WARNING
Improper use of the Adaptive Cruise Control can cause collisions, other accidents and seri-
ous personal injury.
Always remember that the Adaptive Cruise Control has limits – it will not slow the vehicle
down or maintain the set distance when you drive towards an obstacle or something on or
near the road that is not moving, such as vehicles stopped in a traffic jam, a stalled or disa-
bled vehicle.
Always remember that the Adaptive Cruise Control cannot detect a vehicle that is driving
towards you in your traffic lane and that it cannot detect narrow vehicles such as motorcy-
cles and bicycles.
Never drive at speeds that are too fast for traffic, road and weather conditions.
Never follow a vehicle so closely that you cannot stop your vehicle safely. The Adaptive
Cruise Control cannot slow or brake the vehicle safely when you follow another vehicle too
closely. Always remember that the Adaptive Cruise Control has a braking power that is only
about 30% of the vehicle's maximum braking ability, the automatic braking function cannot
bring the vehicle to a stop.
Never use Adaptive Cruise Control when you cannot drive safely at a steady speed, in-
cluding on city streets, on winding roads or when road conditions are poor (for example, on
ice, gravel, in fog, heavy rain or on wet roads that increase the risk of hydroplaning).
The radar sensor's vision can be reduced by rain, snow and heavy road spray. These and
similar conditions can prevent vehicles up ahead from being accurately detected and in some
cases they may not be detected at all. Do not use ACC when the radar sensors cannot accu-
rately detect vehicles moving ahead of you in traffic.
Always turn off Adaptive Cruise Control when entering turn lanes, exit lanes and construc-
tion zones or in similar situations because the vehicle will automatically accelerate to the
stored speed when the road ahead is clear.
Never rest your foot on the accelerator pedal, especially when the Adaptive Cruise Control
is being used because doing so will override the braking function.
Always pay attention to traffic, especially when Adaptive Cruise Control is switched on.
Always maintain a safe speed and distance between your vehicle and other vehicles while
considering the traffic situation. This is the duty of the driver. Adaptive Cruise Control is
merely an aid to the driver.
To prevent unintended operation, always switch ACC off when it is not being used.
It is dangerous to use the “Resume” feature when the previously set speed is too high for
existing road, traffic or weather conditions.
Always select a speed and distance to traffic ahead that is safe and appropriate under the
prevailing traffic, road, weather and lighting conditions.
Never allow the closing speed between you and other vehicles to be so high that the
Adaptive Cruise Control may not be able to slow your vehicle safely. If closing speed is too
high, you must apply the brakes yourself to reduce the risk of a rear-end crash.
NOTICE
When the vehicle is driving at speeds lower than 20 mph (30 km/h) and the
button is pressed
or the lever is moved to
, the vehicle will be accelerated to the lowest possible speed that
can be set in ACC of 20 mph (30 km/h)
The stored speed is canceled when the ignition or the ACC is switched off.
