Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
• If your vehicle is equipped with adaptive cruise control the controls operate exactly the same as the standard cruise control with one difference. You can set a specified distance you would like
to maintain between you and the vehicle in front of you.
• If the ACC sensor detects a vehicle ahead, ACC will apply limited braking or acceleration automatically to maintain a preset following distance, while matching the speed of the vehicle
ahead.
• If the sensor does not detect a vehicle directly ahead of you, it functions like a standard cruise control system, maintaining the speed you set.

Distance Setting (ACC Only)
• To set or change the distance setting, press the Distance button and release. Each time thebutton is pressed, the distance setting adjusts between long (3), medium (2), and short (1). The
distance setting will default to the last set mode the next time the vehicle is restarted and the
ACC system is turned on.
• The specified following distance for ACC can be set by varying the distance setting between 3 (long), 2 (medium), and 1 (short). Using this distance setting and the vehicle speed, ACC
calculates and sets the distance to the vehicle ahead. This distance setting displays in the EVIC.
Mode (ACC Only)
• If desired, the Adaptive Cruise Control mode can be turned off and the system can beoperated as a standard (fixed speed) Cruise Control. When in the standard (fixed speed)
Cruise Control mode the distance setting feature will be disabled and the system will maintain
the speed you set.
• To change modes, press the MODE button when the system is in either the OFF, READY, or SET position. Cruise Ready will be displayed if the system was in ACC READY or ACC SET
position. Cruise Off will be displayed if the system was in the ACC OFF position. To switch
back to Adaptive Cruise Control mode, press the MODE button a second time.
• Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further information.
Forward Collision Warning
• Forward Collision Warning (FCW) warns the driver of a potential collision with the vehicle in front of you and prompts the driver to take action in order to avoid the collision. A warning
message (both audible and visual) will be displayed on the EVIC.
• Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further information.
WARNING!
• Leaving the Electronic or Adaptive Speed Control system on when not in use is dangerous. You could accidentally set the system or cause it to go faster than you want.
You could lose control and have a collision. Alway s leave the Electronic or Adaptive
Speed Control system off when you are not using it.
• Electronic Speed Control can be dangerous where the system cannot maintain a constant speed. Your vehicle could go too fast for the conditions, and you could lose
control. A collision could be the result. Do not use Electronic Speed Control in heavy
traffic or on roads that are winding, icy, snow-covered or slippery.
• Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a convenience system. It is not a substitute for active driving involvement. Pay attention to road, traffic, and weather conditions, vehicle speed,
distance to the vehicle ahead; and, brake operation to ensure safe operation of the
vehicle under all road conditions. Your attention is always required while driving to
maintain safe control of your vehicle. Failure to follow these warnings can result in a
collision or serious personal injury.
