tently setting a speed.
Use the smart cruise control system only when traveling
on open highways in good
weather.
Do not use the smart cruise control when it may not be
safe to keep the car at a con-
stant speed, for instance, driv-
ing in heavy or varying traffic,
or on slippery (rainy, icy or
snow-covered) or winding
roads or over 6% up-hill or
down-hill roads.

cruise control system, which
may increase the vehicle
speed.
The smart cruise control sys- tem is not a substitute for safe
driving practices but a con-
venience function only. It is

Limitations of the system
The smart cruise control system may
have limits to its ability to detect dis-
tance to the vehicle ahead due to
road and traffic conditions.
On curves
On curves, the smart cruise controlsystem may not detect a moving
vehicle in your lane, and then your
vehicle could accelerate to the set
speed. Also, the vehicle speed will
slow down when the vehicle ahead
is recognized suddenly.
Select the appropriate set speed on curves and apply the brakes or
accelerator pedal if necessary.
Your vehicle speed can be reduceddue to a vehicle in the adjacent
lane. Apply the accelerator pedal
and select the appropriate set
speed. Check to be sure that the
road conditions permit safe opera-
tion of the smart cruise control.

On inclines
During uphill or downhill driving,
the smart cruise control system
may not detect a moving vehicle in
your lane, and cause your vehicle
to accelerate to the set speed.
Also, the vehicle speed will slow
down when the vehicle ahead is
recognized suddenly.
Select the appropriate set speed on inclines and apply the brakes or
accelerator pedal if necessary.
Lane changing
A vehicle which moves into yourlane from an adjacent lane cannot
be recognized by the sensor until it
is in the sensor's detection range.
The sensor may not detect imme- diately when a vehicle cuts in sud-
denly. Always pay attention to the
traffic, road and driving conditions.
If a vehicle which moves into your lane is slower than your vehicle,
your speed may decrease to main-
tain the distance to the vehicle
ahead. If a vehicle which moves into your
lane is faster than your vehicle,
your vehicle will accelerate to the
selected speed.
