General Information
The following regulatory statement applies to
all Radio Frequency (RF) devices equipped
in this vehicle:
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC
Rules and
with Industry Canada
license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation
is subject to the following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful inter-
ference.
2
. This device must accept any interference
received
, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
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 conditions, vehicle speed,
distance to the vehicle ahead; and, most
importantly, brake operation to ensure safe
operation of the vehicle under all road
conditions. Your complete attention is always
required while driving to maintain safe control
of your vehicle. 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 vehi-
cles, and stationary objects (e.g., a stopped
vehicle i
n a traffic jam or a disabled vehicle).
Cannot take street, traffic, and weather
conditions into account, and may be limited
upon adverse sight distance conditions.
Does not always fully recognize complex
driving conditions, which can result in wrong
or missing distance warnings.
Will bring the vehicle to a complete stop
while following a target vehicle and hold the
vehicle for 2 seconds in the stop position. If
the target vehicle does not start moving
within two seconds the ACC system will
display a message that the system will
release the brakes and that the brakes must
be applied manually. An audible chime will
sound when the brakes are released.
You should switch off the ACC system:
When driving in fog, heavy rain, heavy snow,
sleet, heavy traffic, and complex driving situ-
ations (i.e., in highway construction zones).
When entering a turn lane or highway off
ramp; when driving on roads that are winding,
icy, snow-covered, slippery, or have steep
uphill or downhill slopes.
When towing a trailer up or down steep
slopes.
When circumstances do not allow safe driving
at a constant speed.
The Cruise Control system has two control
modes:
Adaptive Cruise Control mode for maintaining
an appropriate distance between vehicles.
WARNING! (Continued)
Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control mode
for cruising at a constant preset speed. For
additional information, refer to Normal
(Fixed Speed) Cruise Control Mode” in your
Owner’s Manual.
Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control will not
react to
preceding vehicles. Always be aware of
the mode selected.
You can change the mode by using the Cruise
Control b
uttons. The two control modes
function differently. Always confirm which
mode is selected.
