THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE 59

Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control Mode
In addition to adaptive cruise control mode, a normal
(fixed speed) cruise control mode is available for cruising
at fixed speeds. The Normal cruise control mode is
designed to maintain a set cruising speed without requir-
ing the driver to operate the accelerator. Cruise control
can only be operated if the vehicle speed is above 25 mph
(40 km/h).
To change modes, press and hold the ON/OFF/MODE
button for at least one second in either the OFF state or
the READY state.Normal Cruise Ready will be dis-
played once the mode becomes available. To switch back
to ACC, press and hold the ON/OFF/MODE button
again for at least one second.WARNING!
In the normal cruise control mode, the system will
not react to vehicles ahead. In addition, the proximity
warning does not activate and no alarm will sound
even if you are too close to the vehicle ahead since
the presence of the vehicle ahead nor the vehicle-to-
vehicle distance is detected. Be sure to maintain a
safe distance between your vehicle and the vehicle
ahead. Always be aware which mode is selected.
To set a Desired Speed
When the vehicle reaches the speed desired, tap the lever
down and release (SET/DECEL). The EVIC will display
the set speed.
NOTE: You must observe the display when setting or
changing speed, not the speedometer.
