216 STARTING AND OPERATING
If the system is set when the vehicle speed is
below 20 mph (32 km/h), the set speed shall
be defaulted to 20 mph (32 km/h). If the
system is set when the vehicle speed is above
20 mph (32 km/h), the set speed shall be the
current speed of the vehicle.
NOTE:
ACC cannot be set if there is a stationary vehicle
in front of your vehicle in close proximity.
Remove your foot from the accelerator pedal
after the ACC has been set. If you do not, the
vehicle may continue to accelerate beyond the
set speed. If this occurs:
The message “ACC DRIVER OVERRIDE” will
display in the instrument cluster display.
The system will not be controlling the
distance between your vehicle and the
vehicle ahead. The vehicle speed will only be
determined by the position of the accelerator
pedal.

The following conditions cancel the system:
The brake pedal is applied.
The CANCEL button is pushed.
An Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) event

A Trailer Sway Control (TSC) event occurs.
The driver switches ESC to Full Off mode.

in memory if:
The Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) on/off
button is pushed.

The ignition is placed in the OFF position.
You switch to Four-Wheel Drive Low.
TO RESUME
If there is a set speed in memory push the RES

accelerator pedal. The instrument cluster
display will display the last set speed.
NOTE:
If your vehicle stays at a standstill for longer
than two seconds, the driver will have to push
the RES (+) button to reengage the ACC to the
existing set speed.
ACC cannot be resumed if there is a
stationary vehicle in front of your vehicle in
close proximity.
TO VARY THE SPEED SETTING
To Increase Speed
While ACC is set, you can increase the set speed
by pushing the RES (+) button.
WARNING!
The Resume function should only be used if
traffic and road conditions permit. Resuming
a set speed that is too high or too low for
prevailing traffic and road conditions could
cause the vehicle to accelerate or decelerate
too sharply for safe operation. Failure to
follow these warnings can result in a collision
and death or serious personal injury.
