You can increase the set cruising
speed in any of these ways:You can decrease the set cruising
speed in any of these ways:
Press and hold the RES/ACCEL
button. When you reach the
desired cruising speed, release the
button.
Push on the accelerator pedal.
Accelerate to the desired cruising
speed, and press the DECEL/SET
button. Press and hold the DECEL/SET
button. Release the button when
you reach the desired speed.
Tap the brake pedal lightly with
your f oot. The CRUISE
CONTROL indicator on the
instrument panel will go out.
When the vehicle slows to the
desired speed, press the DECEL/
SET button.
To increase your speed in very
small amounts, tap the RES/
ACCEL button. Each time you do
this, the vehicle speeds up about 1
mph (1.6 km/h). To slow down in very small
amounts, tap the DECEL/SET
button. Each time you do this,
your vehicle slows down about 1
mph (1.6 km/h).
Cruise control may not hold the set
speed when you are going up and
down hills. If your speed increases
going down a hill, use the brakes to
slow down. This cancels cruise
control. On models with adaptive
cruise control (ACC), this also
causes the cruise control icon on the
multi-inf ormation display to go of f
and the cruise mode icon to come on.
To resume the set speed, press the
RES/ACCEL button. The CRUISE
CONTROLicononthemulti-
inf ormation display will come back

Adaptive cruise control (ACC) allows
you to maintain a set speed and keep
the vehicle ahead of you at a safe
distance without having to use the
accelerator pedal or the brake pedal.
When the vehicle ahead of you slows
down or speeds up, ACC senses the
change in distance and compensates
by accelerating or braking your
vehicle to reach the cruising speed
you previously set. The distance
between vehicles is based on your
speed: the f aster you go, the longer
the distance will be; the slower you
go, the shorter it will be.If the vehicle ahead of you slows
down or speeds up suddenly, ACC
alerts you by sounding a beeper and
displaying a message on the multi-
inf ormation display.
TheACCradarsensorinthefront
grille can detect and monitor the
distance of a vehicle up to 328 f eet
(100 meters) ahead of your vehicle.
For more inf ormation on the radar
sensor, see page .
Do not use ACC under these
conditions:
In poor visibility.
In heavy traffic.
When you must slow down and
speed up repeatedly.
On winding roads.
When you enter a toll gate,
interchange, service area, parking
area, etc. In these areas, there is
no vehicle ahead of you, but ACC
would still try to accelerate to your
set speed.
In bad weather (rain, f og, snow,
etc.)
On a slippery road (f or example a
road covered with ice or snow).
As with any system, there are limits
to ACC. Inappropriate use of ACC
can result in a serious accident. Use
the brake pedal whenever necessary,
and always keep a safe distance
between your vehicle and other
vehicles. 326

If the vehicle ahead of you slows
down abruptly, or if another vehicle
cuts in f ront of you, a beeper sounds
and a message appears on the multi-
inf ormation display to warn you.Your vehicle f ollows the vehicle
ahead of it, keeping a constant
distance. ACC will not keep your
vehicle at a constant distance if the
vehicle ahead of you goes out of
range of your set speed.If the vehicle ahead of you slows
down and changes lanes, ACC no
longer tracks it. Your vehicle will
then return to your set speed.
In the case, decelerate your vehicle
by pressing the brake pedal, and
keep an appropriate distance f rom
the vehicle ahead.
