WARNING!
• Side Air Bags need room to inflate. Do not lean against the door or window. Situpright in the center of the seat.
• Being too close to the Side Air Bags during deployment could cause you to be
severely injured or killed.
• Relying on the Side Air Bags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a
collision. The Side Air Bags work with your seat belt to restrain you properly. In
some collisions, Side Air Bags won’t deploy at all. Always wear your seat belt
even though you have Side Air Bags.
• This vehicle is equipped with left and right Supplemental Side Air Bag
Inflatable Curtains (SABICs). Do not stack luggage or other cargo up high
enough to block the deployment of the SABICs. The trim covering above the
side windows where the SABIC and its deployment path are located should

ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (ACC)
If your vehicle is equipped with Adaptive
Cruise Control the controls operate ex-
actly the same as the electronic speed
control with only a couple of differences.
With this option you can set a specified
distance you would like to maintain be-
tween 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 match-
ing the speed of the vehicle ahead.
If the sensor does not detect a vehicle
ahead of you, ACC will maintain a fixed
set speed.
ACC ON/OFF
• Push and release the Adaptive CruiseControl (ACC) ON/OFF button.
ACC READY will appear in the Driver
Information Display (DID) to indicate the ACC is on.
• Push and release the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) ON/OFF button a second time to turn the system off.
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) Off will appear in the Driver Information Display (DID)
to indicate the ACC is off.
To Vary The Speed Setting
To Increase Speed
While ACC is set, you can increase the set speed by pushing the SET +button.
The drivers preferred units can be selected through the instrument panel settings if
equipped. Refer to “Understanding Your Instrument Panel” in the Owner’s Manual
on the DVD for more information. The speed increment shown is dependant on the
speed of U.S. (mph) or Metric (km/h) units:
U.S. Speed (mph)
• Pushing the SET +button once will result in a 1 mph increase in set speed. Each
subsequent tap of the button results in an increase of 1 mph.
• If the button is continually pushed, the set speed will continue to increase in 5 mph increments until the button is released. The increase in set speed is
reflected in the DID.

WARNING!
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a convenience system. It is not a substitute for
active driving involvement. It is always the driver’s responsibility to be attentive of
road, traffic, and weather conditions, vehicle speed, distance to the vehicle ahead;
and, most importantly, brake operation to ensure safe operation of the vehicle
under all road conditions. Your complete attention is always required while driving
to maintain safe control of your vehicle. Failure to follow these warnings can result
in a collision and death or serious personal injury.
The ACC system:
• Does not react to pedestrians, oncoming vehicles, and stationary 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 adverse sight distance conditions.
• Does not always fully recognize complex driving conditions, which can result in
wrong or missing distance warnings.
• Will bring the vehicle to a complete stop while following a target vehicle and
hold the vehicle for 2 seconds in the stop position. If the target vehicle does not
start moving within two seconds the ACC system will display a message that the
system will release the brakes and that the brakes must be applied manually.
An audible chime will sound when the brakes are released.
You should switch off the ACC system:
• When driving in fog, heavy rain, heavy snow, sleet, heavy traffic, and complex
driving situations (i.e., 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.
The Cruise Control system has two control modes:
• Adaptive Cruise Control mode for maintaining an appropriate distance between
vehicles.
• Normal (fixed speed) electronic speed control mode for cruising at a constant
preset speed. For additional information, refer to “Normal (Fixed Speed)
Cruise Control Mode” in this section.
Normal (fixed speed) electronic speed control 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. Always confirm which mode is selected.
