ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (ACC)

If your vehicle is equipped with adaptive cruise

control the controls operate exactly the same

as the electronic speed control with only a

couple of differences. With this option you can

set a specified distance you would like to main-

tain between you and the vehicle in front of

you.
If the ACC sensor detects a vehicle ahead,

ACC will apply limited braking or acceleration

automatically to maintain a preset following

distance, while matching the speed of the ve-

hicle ahead.
If the sensor does not detect a vehicle ahead of

you, ACC will maintain a fixed set speed.

ACC ON/OFF

• Push and release the Adaptive Cruise Con-

trol (ACC) ON/OFF button.

ACC READY will appear in the Electronic Ve-

hicle Information Center (EVIC) or Driver In-

formation Display (DID) to indicate the ACC is on.
• Push and release the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) ON/OFF button a second time to turn

the system off.

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) Off will appear in the Electronic Vehicle Information Center

(EVIC) or Driver Information Display (DID) to indicate the ACC is off.

To Vary The Speed Setting

To Increase Speed
While ACC is set, you can increase the set speed by pressing the SET + button.
The drivers preferred units can be selected through the instrument panel settings if equipped.

Refer to “ Understanding Your Instrument Panel” in the Owner’s Manual on the DVD for more

information. The speed increment shown is dependant on the speed of U.S. (mph) or Metric

(km/h) units:
U.S. Speed (mph)
• Pressing the SET + button once will result in a 1 mph increase in set speed. Each subsequent

tap of the button results in an increase of 1 mph.

• If the button is continually pressed, the set speed will continue to increase in 5 mph increments

until the button is released. The increase in set speed is reflected in the EVIC/DID.
