environments. A false blocked condition either self clears, or clears after you restart your
vehicle.

WARNING: Normal cruise control
will not brake when your vehicle is
approaching slower vehicles. Always be
aware of which mode you have selected
and apply the brakes when necessary.
You can manually change from adaptive
cruise control to normal cruise control
through the information display.
