340 Starting and driving
The system decelerates the vehicle as necessary
and if the vehicle ahead comes to a stop, the
vehicle decelerates to a standstill. However, the ICC
system can only apply up to approximately 40% of
the vehicle’s total braking power.
This system should only be used when traffic
conditions allow vehicle speeds to remain fairly
constant or when vehicle speeds change gradu-
ally. If a vehicle moves into the travelling lane
ahead or if a vehicle travelling ahead rapidly
decelerates, the distance between vehicles may
become closer because the ICC system cannot
decelerate the vehicle quickly enough. If this
occurs, the ICC system sounds a warning chime
and blinks the system display to notify the driver to
take necessary action.
The ICC system cancels and a warning chime
sounds if the speed is below approximately 25
km/h (15 MPH) and a vehicle is not detected ahead.
The ICC system cancels and a warning chime
sounds if your vehicle is at a standstill for more
than approximately 3 seconds and a vehicle is not
detected ahead.
The ICC system operates as follows:
* When there are no vehicles travelling ahead,
the ICC system maintains the speed set by the
driver. The vehicle set speed range is above
approximately 30 km/h (20 MPH).
* When there is a vehicle travelling ahead, the
ICC system adjusts the speed to maintain the
distance, selected by the driver, from the
vehicle ahead. If the vehicle ahead comes to
a stop, the vehicle decelerates to a standstill.
Once your vehicle stops, the ICC system keeps
the vehicle stopped.
* When your vehicle is at a standstill for more
than 3 seconds and the vehicle ahead begins
to accelerate, push up the <RES+> switch or
lightly depress the accelerator pedal. The ICC
system starts to follow the vehicle ahead. If
your vehicle is stationary for more than
approximately 3 minutes, the ICC system will
be switched off and the electronic parking
brake will be applied.
* When the vehicle travelling ahead moves to a
different travelling lane, while the vehicle
speed is above 30 km/h (20 MPH), the ICC
system accelerates and maintains vehicle
speed up to the set speed.
* When the vehicle travelling ahead moves to a
different travelling lane, while the vehicle
speed is below 30 km/h (20 MPH), the ICC
system cancels and a warning chime sounds.
The ICC system does not control vehicle speed or
warn you when you approach stationary and slow
moving vehicles. You must pay attention to vehicle
operation to maintain proper distance from vehi-
cles ahead when approaching toll gates or traffic
congestion.
MSSD0254
When driving on the highway at a vehicle set speed
and approaching a slower travelling vehicle ahead,
the ICC system adjusts the speed to maintain the
distance, selected by the driver, from the vehicle
ahead. If the vehicle ahead changes lanes or exits
the highway, the ICC system accelerates and
maintains the vehicle set speed. Pay attention to
the driving operation to maintain control of the
vehicle as it accelerates to the set speed.
The vehicle may not maintain the set speed on
winding or hilly roads. If this occurs, you will have
to manually control the vehicle speed.
Normally when controlling the distance to a
vehicle ahead, the system automatically acceler-
ates or decelerates your vehicle according to the
speed of the vehicle ahead.
Depress the accelerator to properly accelerate
your vehicle when acceleration is required for a
lane change. Depress the brake pedal when
deceleration is required to maintain a safe dis-
tance to the vehicle ahead due to sudden braking
