Driving
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) *
Helps maintain a constant vehicle speed and a set following distance behind a
vehicle detected ahead of yours, without you having to keep your foot on the brake
or the accelerator.
1Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) *
Important Reminder
As with any system, there are limits to ACC. Use the
brake pedal whenever necessary, and always keep a
safe distance between your vehicle and other
vehicles.
The radar sensor for ACC is shared with FCW
(Forward Collision Warning). 2 Forward Collision Warning (FCW) *
P. 435
3WARNING
Improper use of ACC can lead to a crash.
Use ACC only when traveling on open
highways in good weather.
3WARNING
ACC has limited braking capability.
When your vehicle speed drops below
22 mph (35 km/h), ACC will
automatically cancel and no longer will
apply your vehicle’s brakes.
Always be prepared to apply the brake
pedal when conditions require.
When to use

• In heavy traffic.
• When you must slow down and speed up
repeatedly.
• On winding roads.
• When you enter a toll gate, interchange, service
area, parking area, etc. In these areas, there is no
vehicle ahead of you, but ACC would still try to accelerate to your set speed.
• In bad weather (rain, fog, snow, etc.).
• On a slippery road (for example a road covered
with ice or snow).
• When going down a steep hill where the
regenerative braking does not work sufficiently.
When not using adaptive cruise control: Turn off

uuWhen DrivinguAdaptive Cruise Control (ACC)*
Driving
The radar sensor monitors the distance between your vehicle and a vehicle ahead of
you. When the sensor detects a change in distance, the system responds it by
accelerating or braking your vehicle in order to maintain the set speed and following
distance as necessary.
■When in Operation1When in Operation
If the vehicle ahead of you slows down abruptly, or if
another vehicle cuts in front of you, the beeper
sounds and a message appears on the multi-
information display to alert you to brake.
Depress the brake pedal, and keep an appropriate
distance from the vehicle ahead.
Even if the distance between your vehicle and the
vehicle ahead is short, FCW may not alert you or ACC
may start accelerating your vehicle under the
following circumstances: •
The vehicle ahead of you is going at almost the
same speed as, or faster than your vehicle.
• A vehicle cuts in front of you is going faster than
your vehicle, gradually distancing itself from you.
If you do not want to hear a beep when the system
detects a vehicle, or when the vehicle goes out of
ACC range, you can change the pre-running detect
car beep setting. 2 Customized Features P. 101, 293

vehicle within ACC range: ■
When the vehicle goes
out of ACC range:

Driving
Lane Departure Warning (LDW) *
Alerts you when the system detects a possibility of your vehicle unintentionally
crossing over detected side lane markings.
If your vehicle is getting too close to detected
left or right side lane markings without a turn
signal activated, LDW will give audible and
visual alerts.
The beeper sounds and the Lane Departure
message appears on the multi-information
display, letting you know that you need to
take appropriate action.
■How the System Works
1Lane Departure Warning (LDW) *
Important Safety Reminder
Like all assistance systems, LDW has limitations.
Over-reliance on LDW may result in a collision. It is
always your responsibility to keep the vehicle within
your driving lane.
LDW only alerts you when lane drift is detected
without a turn signal in use. LDW may not detect all
lane markings or lane departures; accuracy will vary
based on weather, speed and lane marker condition.
It is always your responsibility to safely operate the
vehicle and avoid collisions.

uuWhen DrivinguLaneWatchTM
Continued
Driving
LaneWatch TM
Is an assistance system that allows you to check the passenger side rear areas
displayed on the audio/information screen when the turn signal is activated to the
passenger’s side. A camera in the passenger side door mirror monitors these areas
and allows you to check for vehicles, in addition to your visual check and use of the
passenger door mirror. You can also keep the system on for your convenience while
driving.
1LaneWatch TM
Important Safety Reminder
Like all assistance systems, LaneWatch has
limitations. Over reliance on LaneWatch may result in a collision.
The LaneWatch function can be affected by weather,
lighting (including headlights and low sun angle),
ambient darkness, camera condition, and loading.
The LaneWatch may not provide the intended display
of traffic to the side and rear under the following
conditions: • Your vehicle’s suspension has been altered,
changing the height of the vehicle.
• Your tires are over or under inflated.
• Your tires or wheels are of varied size or
construction.
3WARNING
Failure to visually confirm that it is safe to
change lanes before doing so may result in
a crash and serious injury or death.
Do not rely only on LaneWatch while
driving.
Always look in your mirrors, to either side
of your vehicle, and behind you for other
vehicles before changing lanes.
