STARTING AND OPERATING 173
If the vehicle in front does not start moving
within two seconds of your vehicle coming to a
standstill, the ACC with Stop system will
cancel and the brakes will release. A cancel
message will display on the instrument cluster
display and produce a warning chime. The
driver must now manually operate the
vehicle's accelerator and brakes.
While ACC is holding your vehicle at a
standstill, if the driver seat belt is unbuckled
or the driver door is opened, the ACC system
will cancel and the brakes will release. Driver
intervention will be required at this moment.
Display Warnings And Maintenance
“Wipe Front Radar Sensor In Front Of Vehicle”
Warning
The “ACC/FCW Unavailable Wipe Front Radar
Sensor” warning will display and a chime will
sound when conditions temporarily limit system
performance.
This most often occurs at times of poor visibility,
such as in snow or heavy rain. The ACC system
may also become temporarily blinded due to
obstructions, such as mud, dirt or ice. In these
cases, the instrument cluster display will display
“ACC/FCW Unavailable Wipe Front Radar
Sensor” and the system will deactivate.
This message can sometimes be displayed while
driving in highly reflective areas (i.e. ice and snow, or
tunnels with reflective tiles). The ACC system will
recover after the vehicle has left these areas. Under
rare conditions, when the radar is not tracking any
vehicles or objects in its path this warning may
temporarily occur.
NOTE:
If the “ACC/FCW Unavailable Wipe Front Radar
Sensor” warning is active, Fixed Speed Cruise
Control is still available.
If weather conditions are not a factor, the driver
should examine the sensor. It may require
cleaning or removal of an obstruction. The sensor
is located in the camera in the center of the
windshield, on the forward side of the rearview
mirror.
To keep the ACC system operating properly, it is
important to note the following maintenance
items:
Always keep the sensor clean. Carefully clear
the windshield.
Do not remove any screws from the sensor.
Doing so could cause an ACC system
malfunction or failure and require a sensor
realignment.
Do not attach or install any accessories near
the sensor, including transparent material or
aftermarket grilles. Doing so could cause an
ACC system failure or malfunction.
WARNING!
When the ACC system is resumed, the driver
must ensure that there are no pedestrians,
vehicles or objects in the path of the vehicle.
Failure to follow these warnings can result in a
collision and death or serious personal injury.
