However, it is not a safety system and not
designed to prevent collisions. The Cruise Control
function performs differently

page 98.
ACC will allow you to keep Cruise Control engaged
in light to moderate traffic conditions without the
constant need to reset your Cruise Control. ACC
uses a radar sensor located behind the front
bumper and a camera located in the center/
upper part of the windshield, to detect the
presence of a vehicle close ahead.
The system sets and holds the vehicle at the
desired speed without needing to press the
accelerator. It also sets and holds a distance
from the vehicle ahead (these settings are set by
the driver).

If the system detects a vehicle ahead, it will
automatically intervene by slightly braking or
accelerating in order to maintain the preset
distance. It will not exceed the original set speed
when adapting to the speed of the vehicle ahead.
NOTE:
Adaptive Cruise Control performance is not guar-
anteed under the following circumstances, and it
is recommended to turn the system off when:
Driving in fog, heavy rain, or snow.
Driving in heavy traffic or construction zones.
Driving on icy, snowy, slippery roads, roads
with steep inclines, or roads with numerous
turns and bends.
Entering a turn lane.
When circumstances do not allow safe driving
at a constant speed

WARNING!
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a
convenience system. It is not a substitute for
active driver 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 operation 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:
• May react to pedestrians, oncoming
vehicles, and stationary objects (e.g., a
stopped vehicle in a traffic jam or a
disabled vehicle) at speeds between
2 mph and 35 mph (4 km/h and
60 km/h).
• 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 re
sult in
wron
g or missing distance warnings.
