Cruise Control Function
While this function is operating, the
headway control operation is cancelled
and only the cruise control function
operates.
The vehicle speed can be set more than
about 25 km/h (16 mph).
Use the cruise control function on
expressways and other highways which do
not require a lot of repeated acceleration
and deceleration.
WARNING
Do not use the cruise control function
in the following locations:
Otherwise, it could lead to an accident.
 
 Roads with sharp curves and where
vehicle traf¿ c is heavy and there is
insuf¿ cient space between vehicles.
(Driving under these conditions
using the cruise control function is
not possible)
  Steep down slopes (Set speed may be
exceeded because suf¿ cient engine
braking cannot be applied)
  Slippery roads such as ice or snow-
bound roads (Tyres could spin
causing you to lose vehicle control)

Always drive carefully:
The warnings and brake control
will not operate after the headway
control function is cancelled and the
system is switched to only the cruise
control function. Depress the brake
pedal to decelerate according to the
surrounding conditions while keeping
a safer distance from the vehicle ahead

Adjustable Speed Limiter *
The adjustable speed limiter is a function to prevent the vehicle from being driven at a
vehicle speed faster than a set speed. The vehicle speed is controlled to kept it below the set
speed even if the accelerator pedal is depressed.
The adjustable speed limiter can be set between 30 km/h (20 mph) and 200 km/h (125 mph).
The vehicle speed may exceed the set speed when the vehicle is driven on a down slope,
however, the system noti¿ es the driver by À ashing the display and operating a warning
sound.
WARNING
Always turn off the system when changing drivers:
If the driver is changed and the new driver is unaware of the adjustable speed limiter
function, the vehicle may not accelerate when the driver depresses the accelerator
pedal, leading to an accident.
The system consists of the adjustable speed limiter display and the speed limiter switch on
the steering wheel.
