RESETTING TO A FASTER SPEED
Push the lever up in the “+ RES” direction
and hold it. The displayed speed will in-
crease in increments of 5 mph. Release
the lever when the desired speed is attai-
ned. The vehicle speed will gradually in-
crease to the display speed.
However, a faster way to reset is to ac-
celerate the vehicle and then push the
lever down in the “− SET” direction.
CAUTION
When the vehicletovehicle distance
control is on, your cruising speed is
regulated in proportion to the speed
of the vehicle ahead, so increasing
the preset speed using the control
lever does not accelerate the vehicle.
However, if the vehicle ahead leaves
the lane, your cruising speed will in-
crease to the preset speed because
the preset speed has been set higher
using the control lever. Confirm the
setting on the display.
RESETTING TO A SLOWER SPEED
Push the lever down in the “− SET” direc-
tion and hold it. The displayed speed will
decrease in increments of 5 mph. Release
the lever when the desired speed is attai-
ned. The vehicle speed will gradually de-
crease to the display speed.
However, a faster way to reset is to de-
press the brake pedal and then push the
lever down in the “− SET” direction.
If the control lever is released when the
vehicle speed exceeds the upper limit of
the preset speed traveling downhill while
you are pushing the lever down, the sys-
tem will memorize the upper limit of the
preset speed as a preset speed.
Even if you downshift the transmission
from “D” position or “5” (fifth range) to “4”
(fourth range) in sequential mode in the
vehicle− to−vehicle distance control mode,
engine braking will not be enabled be-
cause this mode is not cancelled. To de-
crease the vehicle speed, reset to a slow-
er speed with the cruise control lever or
depress the brake pedal. If you use the
brake pedal, cruise control is cancelled. RESUMING THE PRESET SPEED
If the preset speed has been cancelled,
when you push the lever up in the
“+ RES” direction while the “READY” indi-
cator in the instrument cluster comes on
at a vehicle speed of more than 40 km/h
(25 mph), the speed set prior to cancella-
tion will be restored.
During follow
−up cruising, if there are no
vehicles ahead because they have
changed lanes, your vehicle will accelerate
gradually up to the preset speed. At this
time, pushing the lever up in the “+ RES”
direction will quickly speed up your ve-
hicle in vehicle −to −vehicle distance control
mode.

CHANGING VEHICLETOVEHICLE
DISTANCE
You can select one of the following ve-
hicle−to −vehicle distances.
1. LONG
2. MIDDLE
3. SHORT
Each time you push the distance switch
briefly, the setting changes from LONG to
MIDDLE to SHORT and then back to
LONG. You can confirm the setting on the
display.
Your vehicle speed changes in proportion
to the speed of the vehicle ahead, main-
taining the selected distance. However, if
the vehicle ahead is slower, the selected
distance will be shorter than the desig-
nated distance.
When the vehicle −to −vehicle distance con-
trol mode is activated or the “READY”
indicator comes on, the vehicle −to −vehicle
distance setting can be changed.
The vehicle −to −vehicle distance is always
set to LONG when the ignition switch is
turned on. Select the vehicle
−to −vehicle distance con-
sidering traffic conditions. The approximate
vehicle −to −vehicle distance based on time
interval when driving at 88 km/h (55 mph)
is shown below:
LONG about 75 m (245 ft.)
. . . . . . . . . . .
MIDDLE about 50 m (165 ft.)
. . . . . . . . . .
SHORT about 30 m (100 ft.)
. . . . . . . . . .
If the vehicle speed is slower than 88
km/h (55 mph), the distance will be short-
er than the above.
During long downhill driving, the vehicle −
to −vehicle distance will be shorter than
the selected distance.
