Distance Setting (ACC Only)

The specified following distance for ACC can be set by varying the distance setting between four

bars (longest), three bars (long), two bars (medium) and one bar (short). Using this distance

setting and the vehicle speed, ACC calculates and sets the distance to the vehicle ahead. This

distance setting displays in the EVIC/DID.
• To increase the distance setting, press the Distance Setting—Increase button and release.

Each time the button is pressed, the distance setting increases by one bar (longer).

• To decrease the distance setting, press the Distance Setting—Decrease button and release.

Each time the button is pressed, the distance setting decreases by one bar (shorter).

ACC Operation At Stop

If the ACC system brings your vehicle to a standstill while following a target vehicle, if the target

vehicle starts moving within two seconds of your vehicle coming to a standstill, your vehicle will

resume motion without the need for any driver action.
If the target vehicle does not start moving within two seconds of your vehicle coming to a

standstill, the driver will either have to press the RES (resume) button, or apply the accelerator

pedal to reengage the ACC to the existing Set Speed.
NOTE:

After the ACC system holds your vehicle at a standstill for approximately three consecutive

minutes, the parking brake will be activated, and the ACC system will be cancelled.
While the ACC system is holding your vehicle at a standstill, if the driver seatbelt is unbuckled or

the driver door is opened, the parking brake will be activated, and the ACC system will be

cancelled.

Changing Modes (ACC Only)

If desired, the Adaptive Cruise Control mode can be turned off and the system can be operated

as a normal (Fixed Speed) Speed Control mode. When in the normal (Fixed Speed) Speed

Control mode the distance setting feature will be disabled and the system will maintain the speed

you set.
• To change between the different cruise control modes, press the ADAPTIVE CRUISE

CONTROL (ACC) ON/OFF button which turns the ACC and the normal (Fixed Speed)

Speed Control OFF.

• Pressing the normal (Fixed Speed) SPEED CONTROL ON/OFF button will result in turning

ON (changing to) the normal (Fixed Speed) Speed Control mode.

Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further information.
