• If the button is continually pushed, the set speed will

continue to decrease in 5 mph decrements until the

button is released. The decrease in set speed is re-

flected in the EVIC/DID.

Metric Speed (km/h)

• Pushing 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 pushed, the set speed will

continue to decrease in 10 km/h decrements until the

button is released. The decrease in set speed is re-

flected in the EVIC/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 decelerates the vehicle to a full stop

when following a target vehicle. If an ACC host vehicle

follows a target vehicle to a standstill, after two

seconds the driver will either have to push the RES

(resume) button, or apply the accelerator pedal to

reengage the ACC to the existing Set Speed.

• 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 down-

hill. This is normal operation and necessary to main-

tain set speed. When driving up hill and down hill, the

ACC system will cancel if the braking temperature

exceeds normal range (overheated).
