To keep the ACC System operating properly, it is impor-
tant to note the following maintenance items:
•Always keep the sensor clean. Carefully wipe the
sensor lens with a soft cloth. Be cautious not to
damage the sensor lens.
•Do not remove any screws from the sensor or the
sensor mount. Doing so could cause an ACC system
malfunction or failure and require a sensor re-
alignment.
•If the sensor is damaged due to an accident, see your
authorized dealer for service.
•Do not attach or install any accessories near the sensor,
including transparent material or aftermarket grilles.

mended. Doing so may block the sensor and inhibit ACC
operation.
