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).

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.

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.
