5-80 Starting and driving
with these system limitations could
result in serious injury or death:
. The ICC system is primarily in-
tended for use on straight, dry,
open roads with light traffic. It is
not advisable to use the ICC
system in city traffic or congested
areas.
. The ICC system will not adapt
automatically to road conditions.
This system should be used in
evenly flowing traffic. Do not use
the system on roads with sharp
curves or on icy roads, in heavy
rain or in fog.
. As there is a performance limit to
the distance control function,
never rely solely on the ICC sys-
tem. This system does not correct
careless, inattentive or absent-
minded driving or overcome poor
visibility in rain, fog, or other bad
weather. Decelerate the vehicle
speed by depressing the brake
pedal, depending on the distance
to the vehicle ahead and the
surrounding circumstances in or-
der to maintain a safe distance
between vehicles.
. When the ICC system automati-
cally brings the vehicle to a stop,
your vehicle can automatically
accelerate if the vehicle is
stopped for less than approxi-
mately 3 seconds. Be prepared
to stop your vehicle if necessary.
. Always pay attention to the op-
eration of the vehicle and be
ready to manually control the
proper following distance. The
ICC system may not be able to
maintain the selected distance
between vehicles (following dis-
tance) or selected vehicle speed
under some circumstances.
. The system may not detect the
vehicle in front of you in certain
road or weather conditions. To
avoid accidents, never use the ICC
system under the following con-
ditions:
— On roads with heavy, high-
speed traffic or sharp curves
— On slippery road surfaces
such as on ice or snow, etc.
— During bad weather (rain, fog,
snow, etc.)
— When rain, snow or dirt adhere
to the bumper around the
distance sensor
— On steep downhill roads (the
vehicle may go beyond the set
vehicle speed and frequent
braking may result in over-
heating the brakes)
— On repeated uphill and down-
hill roads
— When traffic conditions make
it difficult to keep a proper
distance between vehicles be-
cause of frequent accelera-
tion or deceleration
— Interference by other radar
sources.
. In some road or traffic conditions,
a vehicle or object can unexpect-
edly come into the sensor detec-
tion zone and cause automatic
braking. Always stay alert and
avoid using the ICC system where
not recommended in this warn-
ing section.
The ICC system will not detect the
following objects:
. Stationary or slow moving vehicles
. Pedestrians or objects in the roadway
. Oncoming vehicles in the same lane
