358 STARTING AND OPERATING
(Continued)
The Cruise Control system has two control modes:
Adaptive Cruise Control mode for maintaining an appro-
priate distance between vehicles.
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 this
section.
NOTE:
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
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 conditions, vehicle speed, distance
to the vehicle ahead; and, most importantly, brake oper-
ation 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 vehicles,
and stationary objects (e.g., a stopped vehicle in 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.
