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.

WARNING!
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a conve-
nience 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 oper-
ation 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 warn-
ings 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.
