Cruise (speed) Control and ACC1. SET \b use to set the road speed to be
maintained or increase/decrease the speed
in 2 km/h (\f mph) steps when cruise
control is operating.
2. RESUME \b use to resume a set speed
retained in memory.
\f. CANCEL \b cancels cruise control but
retains the set speed in memory.
ACC only
ACC utilises a radar at the front of the vehicle to
maintain a pre\bdefined gap to the vehicle ahead.
When a slower vehicle ahead is encountered, or a
vehicle ahead enters the same lane, the previously
set cruise control road speed will be adjusted
automatically to maintain the set gap.
Cruise control will automatically disengage when
the foot brake is pressed or when vehicle speed
falls below 30 km/h (\f8 mph).
Depending on specification, your vehicle will be fitted
with either the standard cruise control system or the
Adaptive \fruise \fontrol system (A\f\f). Both systems
allow you to maintain a set speed until either cruise
control is cancelled or the brake pedal is used. A\f\f
also allows you to maintain a gap between yourself
and the vehicle ahead when the speed of that vehicle
is not greater than yours. Both systems are controlled
via switches on the steering wheel.
