Following a Vehicle

WARNINGS

When following a vehicle in front of
you, the vehicle will not decelerate
automatically to a stop, nor will the

vehicle always decelerate quickly enough
to avoid a collision without driver
intervention. Always apply the brakes when
necessary. Failing to do so may result in a
collision, serious injury or death.

Adaptive cruise control only warns
of vehicles detected by the radar
sensor. In some cases there may be

no warning or the warning may be delayed.
The driver should always apply the brakes
when necessary. Failing to do so may result
in a collision, serious injury or death.

Note: The brakes may emit a sound when
they are being modulated by the adaptive
cruise control system.

When a vehicle ahead of you enters the
same lane or a slower vehicle is ahead in
the same lane, the vehicle speed will adjust
automatically to maintain a preset gap
distance. The distance setting is
adjustable.

The lead vehicle graphic will be
illuminated.

The vehicle will maintain a constant
distance between the vehicle ahead until:

the vehicle in front of you accelerates
to a speed above the set speed

the vehicle in front of you moves out of
your lane or out of view

the vehicle speed falls below 12 mph
(20 km/h)

a new gap distance is set.
