Metric Speed (km/h)
• Pressing the SET - button once will result in a 1 km/h decrease in set speed. Each
subsequent tap of the button results in a decrease of 1 km/h.
• If the button is continually pressed, the set speed will continue to decrease in 10 km/h
decrements until the button is released. The decrease in set speed is reflected in the DID.
NOTE:
• When you override and push the SET
+ button or SET - buttons, the new Set Speed will
be the current speed of the vehicle.
• When you use the SET - button to decelerate, if the engine’s braking power does not
slow the vehicle sufficiently to reach the set speed, the brake system will automatically
slow the vehicle.
• The ACC system applies the brake down to a full stop when following a target vehicle.
If an ACC host vehicle follows a target vehicle to a standstill, the host vehicle will release
the vehicle brakes two seconds after coming to a full stop.
• The ACC system maintains set speed when driving up hill and down hill. However, a
slight speed change on moderate hills is normal. In addition, downshifting may occur
while climbing uphill or descending downhill. This is normal operation and necessary
to maintain set speed. When driving up hill and down hill, the ACC system will cancel
if the braking temperature exceeds normal range (overheated).
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 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).
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.
