following gap. The range of selectable
gaps may not be appropriate for all
drivers and driving conditions.
Changing the gap setting
automatically changes the alert timing
sensitivity (Far, Medium, or Near) for
the For ward Collision Alert (FCA)
feature. See For ward Collision Alert
(FCA) System 0 214.
Alerting the Driver
If ACC is engaged, driver action may
be required when ACC cannot apply
sufficient braking because of
approaching a vehicle too rapidly.
When this condition occurs, the
collision alert symbol on the HUD will
flash on the windshield. Either eight
beeps will sound from the front,
or both sides of the Safety Alert Seat
will pulse five times. See Collision/
Detection Systems under Vehicle
Personalization 0 123.
See Defensive Driving 0 150.
Approaching and Following a
Vehicle
The vehicle ahead indicator is in the
instrument cluster and HUD display,
if equipped.
The vehicle ahead indicator only
displays when a vehicle is detected in
your vehicles path moving in the
same direction.
If this symbol is not displaying, ACC
will not respond to or brake to
vehicles ahead.
ACC automatically slows the vehicle
down and adjusts vehicle speed to
follow a detected vehicle ahead at the
selected follow gap. The vehicle speed
increases or decreases to follow a
detected vehicle in front of your
vehicle when that vehicle is traveling
slower than your vehicle set speed.
It may apply limited braking,
if necessar y. When braking is active,
the brake lamps will come on. The
automatic braking may feel or sound
different than if the brakes were
applied manually. This is normal.
Stationary or Very Slow-Moving
Objects

Warning
ACC may not detect and react to
stopped or slow-moving vehicles
ahead of you. For example, the
system may not brake for a vehicle
it has never detected moving. This
can occur in stop-and-go traffic or
when a vehicle suddenly appears
due to a vehicle ahead changing
lanes. Your vehicle may not stop
and could cause a crash. Use
caution when using ACC. Your
complete attention is always
