WARNING!
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a convenience
system. It is not a substitute for active driving
involvement. It is always the drivers responsibil-
ity 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 re-
quired while driving to maintain safe control of
your vehicle. Failure to follow these warnings can
result in a collision or serious personal injury.
The ACC system:
Does not react to pedestrians, oncoming ve-
hicles, and stationary objects (e.g., a stopped ve-
hicle in a traffic jam or a disabled vehicle).

WARNING! (Continued)
Cannot take street, traffic, and weather conditions
into account, and may be limited upon adverse sight
distance conditions.
Does not predict the lane curvature or the move-
ment of preceding vehicles and will not compensate
for such changes.
Does not always fully recognize complex driving
conditions, which can result in wrong or missing
distance warnings.
Can only apply a maximum of 25% of the vehicle’s
braking capability, and will not bring the vehicle to a
complete stop.
