WARNING!
•
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a convenience
system. It is not a substitute for active driving
involvement. It is always the driver’s 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 an accident or serious personal injury.The
ACC system:
•
Does not react to pedestrians, oncoming vehicles,
and stationary objects (i.e., a stopped vehicle in a
traffic jam or a disabled vehicle).
(Continued)
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 compen-
sate for such changes.
•
Does not always fully recognize complex driving
conditions, which can result in wrong or missing
distance warnings.
•
May not detect a vehicle ahead when strong light
(for example, sunrise or sunset) is directly shining
on the front of the vehicle.
•
Can only apply a maximum of 25% of the vehicle’s
braking capability, and will not bring the vehicle
to a complete stop.
