When the condition that created limited functionality is

no longer present, the system will return to full function-

ality.
NOTE:

If the “ACC/FCW Limited Functionality Clean

Front Windshield” message occurs frequently (e.g. more

than once on every trip) without any snow, rain, mud, or

other obstruction, have the windshield and forward

facing camera inspected at your authorized dealer.
Service ACC/FCW Warning
If the system turns off, and the DID displays “ACC/FCW

Unavailable Service Required” or “Cruise/FCW Unavail-

able Service Required”, there may be an internal system

fault or a temporary malfunction that limits ACC func-

tionality. Although the vehicle is still drivable under

normal conditions, ACC will be temporarily unavailable.

If this occurs, try activating ACC again later, following an

ignition cycle. If the problem persists, see your autho-

rized dealer.

Precautions While Driving With ACC

In certain driving situations, ACC may have detection

issues. In these cases, ACC may brake late or unexpect-

edly. The driver needs to stay alert and may need to

intervene.
Towing A Trailer
Towing a trailer is not advised when using ACC.
Offset Driving
ACC may not detect a vehicle in the same lane that is

offset from your direct line of travel, or a vehicle merging

in from a side lane. There may not be sufficient distance

to the vehicle ahead. The offset vehicle may move in and

out of the line of travel, which can cause your vehicle to

brake or accelerate unexpectedly.
