• Once a speed is set, pushing the RES + button once or the SET – button once will
increase or decrease the set speed approximately 1 mph (1 km/h).
• Push and hold the RES + button to accelerate in 5mph (10 km/h) increments or
push and hold the SET – button to decelerate in 5mph (10 km/h) increments;
release the button to save the new set speed.
Distance Setting (ACC Only)
• To set or change the distance setting, press the Distance button and release. Each
time the button is pressed, the distance setting adjusts between long (3), medium
(2), and short (1). The distance setting will default to the last set mode the next
time the vehicle is restarted and the ACC system is turned on.
• The specified following distance for ACC can be set by varying the distance setting
between 3 (long), 2 (medium), and 1 (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.
Mode (ACC Only)
• If desired, the Adaptive Cruise Control mode can be turned off and the system can
be operated as a standard (fixed speed) Cruise Control. When in the standard
(fixed speed) Cruise Control mode the distance setting feature will be disabled and
the system will maintain the speed you set.
• To change modes, press the MODE button when the system is in either the OFF,
READY, or SET position. Cruise Off will be displayed if the system was in ACC
READY, ACC SET or the ACC OFF position. To switch back to Adaptive Cruise
Control mode, press the MODE button a second time.
• Each press of the MODE button will be followed by an audible chime.
• Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further information.
Forward Collision Warning
• The Forward Collision Warning (FCW) system provides the driver with audible and
visual warnings (within the EVIC) when it detects a potential frontal collision. The
warnings are intended to provide the driver with enough time to react and avoid the
potential collision.
Changing FCW Status
• The FCW feature has three settings and can be changed within the Electronic
Vehicle Information Center (EVIC).
• Far
• Near
• Off
NOTE: The FCW settings can only be changed when the vehicle is in PARK.
