Driving
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low Speed Follow (LSF)*
Helps maintain a constant vehicle speed an
d a set following interval behind a vehicle
detected ahead of yours and, if the detect ed vehicle comes to a stop, can decelerate
and stop your vehicle, without you having to keep your foot on the brake or the accelerator.When ACC with LSF slows your vehicle by applying the brakes, your vehicle’s brake
lights will illuminate.1Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low Speed Follow (LSF)*
