If you desire, a cruise control without inter-
vention of the following distance control is
also selectable.
NOTE
l
You cannot operate the regenerative brake
controls while the adaptive cruise control
system (ACC) is operating. If doing so, the
buzzer sounds.
l
If you turn on the adaptive cruise control
(ACC) when the select position is in “B” (in-
cluding B0 to B5) position, the select posi-
tion is changed to “D” position.
WARNING
l
A driver is responsible for driving safely.
Even if the ACC is in use, always grasp
the surrounding circumstances and pro-
vide for safe driving.
WARNING
l
Never rely solely on the ACC. The ACC is
the system to reduce load on the driver.
The ACC is not a collision avoidance sys-
tem or an automatic driving system. The
system is not intended to compensate for
driver’s loss of attention to the front dur-
ing driving due to distraction or careless-
ness or supplement a drop in visibility due
to the rain and fog.
It is never a substitute for your safe and
careful driving. Always be ready to apply
the brakes manually.
l
This system may not correctly detect the
actual situation depending on the type of
vehicle in front and its conditions, the
weather conditions, and the road condi-
tions.
Additionally, the system may be unable to
decelerate sufficiently if the vehicle in
front applies the brakes suddenly or an-
other vehicle cuts into your path, so your
vehicle approaches the front vehicle.
Improper usage of this system or loss of
attention to the front by the over-rely on
the ACC, may result in a serious accident.
CAUTION
l
In the following situations, the system may
become transiently unable to detect a vehicle
in front or triggers its control and alarm
functions by detecting something other than
a vehicle in front.
CAUTION
When driving in curved sections of road
including their entrance/outlet or running
beside a closed lane in a traffic work or
similar zone.
When your vehicle position in a lane is in-
stable, is frequently steered to right and
left, or running unstably due to a traffic
accident, trouble with some vehicles, etc.
When driving on the road that the vehicle
in front runs in offset position from your
vehicle.
l
Never use the ACC in any of the following
situations. Failure to follow this instruction
could lead to an accident.
On roads with heavy traffic or roads in-
cluding many windings or steep curves.
