SAFETY AND EMERGENCY FEATURES
Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC)(if equipped)
1 The set speed may also be cancelled by depressing the brake pedal.2 The set speed may be resumed once vehicle speed exceeds 25 mph. Vehicle will cruise at a set speed, decelerate to maintain selected distance from
a slower vehicle traveling in front and accelerate back up to the selected speed if
the vehicle in front changes lanes or speeds up.

(1) Push the “ON-OFF” button. The “RADAR READY” or “
” indicator will come
on.
(2) Push the lever down to SET speed, push it up to Resume and pull it or depress
brake to Cancel.
(3) Push up to increase the set speed, push down to decrease (1mph increments).

Cruise control switch
Vehicle will cruise at a set speed, decelerate to maintain selected distance from
a slower vehicle traveling in front and accelerate back up to the selected speed if
the vehicle in front changes lanes or speeds up. This mode is always selected first
when the cruise control button is depressed. Constant speed cruise control mode
is also available.

Adjusting distance
To change the vehicle-to-
vehicle distance

Push the “
” button
to cycle through the
settings, which will change
progressively.
LONG (default setting)
MIDDLE
SHORT.
This mode employs a radar sensor to detect the presence of vehicles up to
approximately 400ft (120m) ahead, determines the current vehicle-to-vehicle
following distance and operates to maintain a suitable following distance from the
vehicle ahead.
(1) Constant speed cruising when there are no vehicles ahead
The vehicle travels at the speed set by the driver. The desired vehicle-to-
vehicle distance can also be set by operating the vehicle-to-vehicle distance
control.
(2) Deceleration cruising and follow-up cruising when a preceding vehicle
driving slower than the set speed appears
When a vehicle is detected running ahead of you, the system automatically
decelerates your vehicle. When a greater reduction in vehicle speed is
necessary, the system applies the brakes (the stop lights will come on at this
time). The system will respond to changes in the speed of the vehicle ahead in
order to maintain the vehicle-to-vehicle distance set by the driver. A warning
tone warns you when the system cannot decelerate sufficiently to prevent your
vehicle from closing in on the vehicle ahead. Note: Vehicle-to-vehicle distance may lessen when traveling on long downhill
slopes.

(3) Acceleration when there are no longer any preceding vehicles driving
slower than the set speed
The system accelerates until the set speed is reached. The system then
returns to constant speed cruising.
Note: When your vehicle is too close to a vehicle ahead, and sufficient automatic
deceleration via the cruise control is not possible, the display will flash and the
buzzer will sound to alert the driver. An example of this would be if another driver
cuts in front of you while you are following a vehicle. Depress the brake pedal to
ensure an appropriate vehicle-to-vehicle distance.
Switching to constant speed control mode
If you are already using DRCC “”, push “ON-OFF” button to turn the system off
first, then push and hold “ON-OFF” button for at least 1.5 seconds to switch.
Note: When the engine is turned off, it will automatically default to Dynamic
Radar Cruise Control.

FEATURES/OPERATIONS
Lane Departure Alert (LDA)
(if equipped)
The Lane Departure Alert system recognizes visible white or yellow lane markers
via a camera sensor. The system alerts the driver with a warning buzzer sound
and message in the Multi-Information Display (MID) when it detects the vehicle
deviating from or swaying multiple times within its lane.
Press the LDA switch to turn the LDA system on. Depress again to turn it off.
Note: The system will continue in the last state it was in (ON or OFF)
when the engine is started again.
