354 STARTING AND OPERATING
ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (ACC) — IF EQUIPPED
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) increases the driving conve-
nience provided by cruise control while traveling on high-
ways and major roadways. However, it is not a safety system
a
nd not
designed to prevent collisions. Speed Control func-
tion performs differently. Please refer to the proper section
w
ithin
this chapter.
ACC will allow you to keep cruise control engaged in light
to mode
rate traffic conditions without the constant need to
reset your cruise control. ACC utilizes a radar sensor and a
forward facing camera designed to detect a vehicle directly
ahead of you.
NOTE:
• If the sensor does not detect a vehicle ahead of you, ACC
will ma
intain a fixed set speed.
• If the ACC sensor detects a vehicle ahead, ACC will apply
limite
d braking or accelerate (not to exceed the original set
speed) automatically to maintain a preset following
distance, while matching the speed of the vehicle ahead.
The Cruise Control system has two control modes:
• Adaptive Cruise Control mode for maintaining an appro-
priate
distance between vehicles.
• N
ormal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control mode for cruising at
a cons
tant 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
p
recedi
ng 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.
