The Cruise Control system has two control modes:

• Adaptive Cruise Control mode for maintaining an

appropriate distance between vehicles.

• Normal (fixed speed) electronic speed control mode

for cruising at a constant preset speed. For additional

information, refer to “Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise

Control Mode” in this section.

NOTE:

Normal (fixed speed) electronic speed control

will not react to preceding vehicles. Always be aware of

the mode selected.
You can change the mode by using the Cruise Control

buttons. The two control modes function differently.

Always confirm which mode is selected.

WARNING!

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a convenience

system. It is not a substitute for active driving
involvement. It is always the driver’s responsibility
to be attentive of road, traffic, and weather condi-
tions, vehicle speed, distance to the vehicle ahead;
and, most importantly, brake operation to ensure
safe operation of the vehicle under all road condi-
tions. Your complete attention is always required
while driving to maintain safe control of your ve-
hicle. Failure to follow these warnings can result in a
collision and death or serious personal injury.

The ACC system:

Does not react to pedestrians, oncoming vehicles,

and stationary objects (e.g., a stopped vehicle in a
traffic jam or a disabled vehicle).
