brake/decelerate for stationary vehicles
or objects, especially in situations when
you are driving over 80 km/h and in
situations where a vehicle you are
following moves out of your driving path
and a stationary vehicle or object is in
front of you. Always pay attention to the
road ahead and stay prepared to take
immediate corrective action. Depending
on
Trac-Aware Cruise Control to avoid
a collision can result in serious injury or
death. In addition,
Trac-Aware Cruise
Control may react to vehicles or objects
that either do not exist or are not in the
lane of travel, causing Model X to slow
down unnecessarily or inappropriately.
Warning: Trac-Aware Cruise Control
may be unable to provide adequate
speed control because of limited braking
capability and hills. It can also misjudge
the distance from a vehicle ahead. Driving
downhill can increase driving speed,
causing Model X to exceed your set
speed (and potentially the road's speed
limit). Never depend on
Trac-Aware
Cruise Control to slow down the vehicle
enough to prevent a collision. Always
keep your eyes on the road when driving
and be prepared to take corrective action
as needed. Depending on
Trac-Aware
Cruise Control to slow the vehicle down
enough to prevent a collision can result in
serious injury or death.
Warning: Trac-Aware Cruise Control
may occasionally cause Model X to brake
when not required or when you are not
expecting it. This can be caused by
closely following a vehicle ahead,
detecting vehicles or objects in adjacent
lanes (especially on curves), etc.
Adjust your following distance
To adjust the following distance you want to
maintain between your Model X and a vehicle
traveling ahead of you, rotate the cruise
control lever to choose a setting from 1 (the
closest following distance) to 7 (the longest
following distance). Each setting corresponds
to a time-based distance that represents how
long it takes for Model X, from its current
location, to reach the location of the rear
bumper of the vehicle ahead of you.
As you rotate the cruise control lever, the
instrument panel displays the current setting.
Release the lever when the desired setting is
displayed.
Note: Your setting is retained until you
manually change it.
Warning: It is the driver's responsibility to
determine and maintain a safe following
distance at all times. Do not rely on
Trac-Aware Cruise Control to maintain
an accurate or appropriate following
distance.
Warning: Never depend on Trac-Aware
Cruise Control to adequately slow down
Model X to avoid a collision. Always
watch the road in front of you and stay
prepared to take immediate corrective
action.
Cruising at the Speed Limit
Trac-Aware Cruise Control makes it easy to
cruise at the speed limit. You can cruise at the
speed limit that is currently being determined
by Speed Assist (see Speed Assist on page
112). To do so, pull the cruise control lever
toward you. When you release, your cruising
speed is set to the speed that is determined
by Speed Assist, taking into consideration any
oset you have specified. If you are already
driving faster than the speed limit when you
pull the lever, the set speed does not adjust to
the speed limit—it adjusts to your current
driving speed.
Note: When you adjust the cruising speed
based on the speed limit, the set speed does
not change when the speed limit changes. You
must pull the cruise control lever again to
cruise at the new speed limit. You can also
manually adjust your cruising speed at any
time (see Changing the Set Speed on page
94).
