WARNING!
Speed Control can be dangerous where the system
can’t maintain a constant speed. Your vehicle could
go too fast for the conditions, and you could lose
control. An accident could be the result. Don’t use
Speed Control in heavy traffic or on roads that are
winding, icy, snow-covered, or slippery.
ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (ACC) — IF
EQUIPPED
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) increases the driving
convenience provided by cruise control while traveling
on highways and major roadways. However, it is not a
safety system and not designed to prevent collisions.ACC will allow you to keep cruise control engaged in
light to moderate traffic conditions without the constant
need to reset your cruise control. ACC utilizes an infrared
sensor designed to detect a vehicle directly ahead in your
path within a distance of 328 ft (100 m).
NOTE:
•
If the sensor does not detect a vehicle directly ahead of
you, ACC will function in the same way as standard
cruise control system. For additional information, refer
to “Electronic Speed Control” in this section.
•If the ACC sensor detects a vehicle ahead, ACC will
apply limited braking or acceleration automatically so
that your vehicle maintains a preset following dis-
tance.
