Using Electronic Speed Control
On Hills
The transmission may downshift on
hills to maintain the vehicle set speed.
NOTE:
The Electronic Speed
Control system maintains speed up
and down hills. A slight speed
change on moderate hills is normal.
On steep hills, a greater speed loss or
gain may occur so it may be prefer-
able to drive without Electronic Speed
Control.WARNING!
Electronic Speed Control can be
dangerous where the system cannot
maintain a constant speed. Your ve-
hicle could go too fast for the con-
ditions, and you could lose control
and have an accident. Do not use

traffic or on roads that are winding,
icy, snow-covered or slippery.
ADAPTIVE CRUISE
CONTROL (ACC)
(for versions/markets,
where provided)
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) in-
creases the driving convenience pro-
vided 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 con-
trol engaged in light to moderate traffic
conditions without the constant need to
reset your cruise control. ACC utilizes a
radar sensor designed to detect a ve-
hicle directly ahead of you.NOTE:
 If the sensor does not detect a vehicle ahead of you, ACC will
maintain a fixed set speed.
121

 If the ACC sensor detects a ve-hicle ahead, ACC will apply
limited braking or acceleration
(not to exceed the original set
speed) automatically to main-
tain a preset following distance,
while matching the speed of the
vehicle ahead.WARNING!
 Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) isa convenience system. It is not a
substitute for active driving in-
volvement. It is always the driv-
er’s responsibility to be attentive
of road, traffic, and weather con-
ditions, vehicle speed, distance to
the vehicle ahead; and, most im-
portantly, brake operation to en-
sure safe operation of the vehicle
under all road conditions. Your
complete attention is always re-
quired while driving to maintain
safe control of your vehicle. Fail-
ure to follow these warnings can
result in a collision and death or
serious personal injury.
(Continued)
WARNING!(Continued)
 The ACC system: – Does not react to pedestrians,oncoming vehicles, and sta-
tionary objects (e.g., a stopped
vehicle in a traffic jam or a
disabled vehicle).
–
Cannot take street, traffic, and
weather conditions into account,
and may be limited upon ad-
verse sight distance conditions.– Does not predict the lane cur- vature or the movement of pre-
ceding vehicles and will not
compensate for such changes.
–Does not always fully recognize
complex driving conditions,
which can result in wrong or
missing distance warnings.– Can only apply a maximum of 25% of the vehicle’s braking
capability, and will not bring
the vehicle to a complete stop.
WARNING!You should switch off the ACC sys-
tem: When driving in fog, heavy rain,
heavy snow, sleet, heavy traffic,
and complex driving situations
(e.g., in highway construction
zones).
 When entering a turn lane or highway off ramp; when driving
on roads that are winding, icy,
snow-covered, slippery, or have
steep uphill or downhill slopes.
 When towing a trailer up or down steep slopes.
 When circumstances do not allow safe driving at a constant speed.
Failure to follow these warnings
can result in a collision and death or
serious personal injury.

The Cruise Control system has two
control modes:
 Adaptive Cruise Control mode formaintaining an appropriate dis-
tance between vehicles.
 Normal (fixed speed) cruise control mode is for cruising at a constant
preset speed. For additional infor-
mation, refer to “Normal (Fixed
Speed) Cruise Control Mode” in
this section.
NOTE: The system will not react
to preceding vehicles. Always be
aware of the mode selected.You can change the mode by using
the Cruise Control buttons. The two
control modes function differently. Al-
ways confirm which mode is selected.
ADAPTIVE CRUISE
CONTROL (ACC)
OPERATION
The speed control buttons (located on
the right side of the steering wheel)
operates the ACC system.
NOTE: Any chassis/suspension
modifications to the vehicle will
effect the performance of the
Adaptive Cruise Control. ACTIVATING ADAPTIVE
CRUISE CONTROL (ACC)
You can only activate ACC if the
vehicle speed is above 32 km/h.
When the system is turned on and
in the READY state, the Electronic
Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)
displays “Adaptive Cruise Ready.”
When the system is OFF, the EVIC dis-
plays “Adaptive Cruise Control Off.”NOTE: You cannot enable ACC
under the following conditions:
 When you apply the brakes.
 When the parking brake is set.
 When the automatic transmis-
sion is in PARK, REVERSE or
NEUTRAL.
 When pushing the RES + button without a previously set speed in
memory.

If the sunshade is in the raised posi-
tion and the vehicle is placed in
REVERSE, the sunshade will auto-
matically fully lower. When the trans-
mission is shifted out of REVERSE
the sunshade will automatically re-
turn to the fully raised position after
approximately five seconds.
NOTE: The rear sunshade con-
trol switch can be locked out with

SYSTEM
The automatic load leveling system
will provide a level-riding vehicle un-
der most passenger and cargo loading
conditions.
A hydraulic pump contained within
the shock absorbers raises the rear of
the vehicle to the correct height. It
takes approximately 1.6 km of driving
for the leveling to complete depending
on road surface conditions.If the leveled vehicle is not moved for
approximately 15 hours, the leveling
system will bleed itself down. The ve-
hicle must be driven to reset the
system.
