NOTE
•If a vehicle ahead is detected while travelling at a constant speed, the vehicle-ahead
indication is displayed and headway control is performed. Additionally, when a vehicle
ahead is no longer detected, the vehicle-ahead indication turns off and the system
switches back to travel at constant speed.
•The lowest possible speed which can be set on the MRCC with Stop & Go function system
is 30 km/h (19 mph).
•Headway control is not possible if the vehicle ahead is driving faster than your vehicle's
set speed. Adjust the system to the desired vehicle speed using the accelerator pedal.
How to set the distanc e-between-vehicles during headway control
The distance-between-vehicles is set to a shorter distance by p ressing the switch. The
distance-between-vehicles is set to a longer distance by pressi ng the
switch. The
distance-between-vehicles can be set to 4 levels; Long, medium, short, and extremely short
distance.

NOTE
•The distance-between-vehicles differs depending on the vehicle speed, and the slower the
vehicle speed, the shorter the distance.
•When the ignition is switched to ACC or OFF and then the engine is started again, the
system automatically sets the distance-between-vehicles to the previous setting.
How to change the set vehicle speed
To accelerate/decelerate using the SET
switch
When you press the SET
switch, the
vehicle accelerates and when you press the
SET
switch, it decelerates.
European
models Except Euro-
pean models
Short press 1 km/h (1 mph) 5 km/h (5 mph)
Long press 10 km/h (5 mph)
NOTE
For example, the set vehicle speed is
changed by pressing the SET switch four
times as follows:
(European models)
The vehicle speed accelerates or
decelerates by 4 km/h (4 mph).
(Except European models)
The vehicle speed accelerates or
decelerates by 20 km/h (20 mph).
To increase speed using accelerator
pedal
Depress the accelerator pedal and press
and release the SET
switch or SET
switch at the desired sp eed. If the switch is
not operated, the syste m returns to the set
speed after you release your foot from the
accelerator pedal.
CAUTION
The warnings and brake control do not
operate while the accelerator pedal is
depressed.
NOTE
•The setting speed can be changed by
operating the SET
switch or SET
switch during stop hold control.

•When accelerating using the SET
switch while in headway control, the set
vehicle speed can be adjusted but
acceleration is not possible. If there is
no longer a vehicle ahead, acceleration
continues until reaching the set vehicle
speed. For the set vehicle speed, check
the set vehicle speed indication in the
display.
•When depressing the accelerator pedal,
the inter-vehicle distance indication in
the display changes to the white-line
indication.
•(European models)
When switching to a passing lane and
operating the direction indicator, the
system provides more acceleration
automatically if it determines that more
acceleration is required. Drive while
being careful of the road ahead because
you could approach the vehicle ahead
too closely.
Cancelling the system
When the following operations are
performed, the MRCC with Stop & Go
function system is cancelled, and the
MRCC with Stop & Go function set
indication (green) sw itches to the MRCC
with Stop & Go function main indication
(white) at the same time.
•The OFF/CAN switch is pressed.
•The brake pedal is depressed.
•The electric parking brake (EPB) is
applied.
•The selector lever is in the P (Park), N
(Neutral), or R (Reverse) position.
•Any of the doors is opened.
•The driver's seat belt is unfastened.
Under the following conditions, the
MRCC with Stop & Go function cancel
indication is displayed in the
multi-information display and a single
beep sound is heard.
•The DSC has operated.
•The Smart Brake Support (SBS) has
operated.
•The Smart City Brake Support
[Forward] (SCBS F) or Advanced Smart
City Brake Support (Advanced SCBS)
has operated.
•When travelling on a downslope for a
long period of time.
•There is a problem with the system.
•The engine has stalled.
•The electric parkin g brake (EPB) is
automatically applie d during stop hold
control.
•The radar sensor (front) cannot detect
target objects (during rain, fog, snow or
other inclement weather conditions, or
when the radiator grille is dirty).
Resuming control
If the MRCC with St op & Go function
system is cancelled, you can resume
control at the previously set speed by
pressing the RES switch and after all of
the operation conditions have been met.
NOTE
If the set speed is not indicated in the
display, the control does not resume even
if the RES switch is pressed.
Turning off the system
Press the OFF/CAN switch two times
while the MRCC with Stop & Go function
system is operating to switch off the
system.

Resume driving information
If you do not resume driving within a few seconds after the vehicle ahead starts moving, the
multi-information display vehicl e-ahead indication flashes to urge the driver to resume
driving.
▼ 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 c
ontrol function on
expressways and other highways which do
not require a lot of repeated acceleration
and deceleration.
WA R N I N G
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
traffic is heavy and there is
insufficient space between vehicles.
(Driving under these conditions using the
cruise control function is not possible)
Steep down slopes (Set speed may be
exceeded because sufficient 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 and
always driving carefully.
Switching to cruise control function
When the MODE switc h is pressed until
the system switches to the cruise main
indication (white) wh ile the MRCC with
Stop & Go function system is turned on,
the system switches to the cruise control
function.
When the system switches to the cruise
control function, the indicator and
multi-information disp lay notify the driver
as follows:
•The MRCC with Stop & Go function set
indication (green) or the MRCC with

•The steering wheel operation assist is
performed so that the vehicle remains
near the centre of the driving lane,
however, depending on conditions
such as the road curvature, road slope
and undulations, and vehicle speed,
the system may not be able to keep the
vehicle near the centre of the driving
lane.
