Following a Vehicle
WARNINGS
When following a vehicle, yourvehicle does not decelerateautomatically to a stop, nor doesyour vehicle always decelerate quicklyenough to avoid a crash without driverintervention. Always apply the brakes whennecessary. Failing to do so may result in acrash, serious injury or death.
Adaptive cruise control only warnsof vehicles detected by the radarsensor. In some cases there may beno warning or a delayed warning. Youshould always apply the brakes whennecessary. Failure to do so may result in acrash, serious injury or death.
Note:The brakes may emit noise whenapplied by the system.
When a vehicle ahead of you enters thesame lane or a slower vehicle is ahead inthe same lane, the vehicle speed adjuststo maintain a preset gap distance. Avehicle graphic illuminates in theinstrument cluster.
When you are following a vehicle and youswitch on your left directional indicator,adaptive cruise control may provide asmall temporary acceleration to help youpass.
Your vehicle maintains a consistent gapfrom the vehicle ahead until:
•The vehicle in front of you acceleratesto a speed above the set speed.
•The vehicle in front of you moves outof the lane you are in.
•You set a new gap distance.
The vehicle applies brakes to slow thevehicle to maintain a safe distance fromthe vehicle in front. The maximum brakingwhich the system can apply is limited. Youcan override the system by applying thebrakes.
If the system predicts that its maximumbraking level is insufficient, an audiblewarning sounds while the systemcontinues to brake. The red warning barappears on the windshield. You shouldtake immediate action.
Following a Vehicle to a CompleteStop
If your vehicle follows a vehicle to acomplete stop and remains stationary forless than three seconds, your vehicleautomatically accelerates from astationary position to follow the vehicleahead when you release the brake pedal.
