When driving at about 25 mph (40 km/h) or above: Take your foot off the
pedal and press the –/SET button when you reach the desired speed. The moment
you release the button, the set speed is fixed, and ACC with LSF begins.
When driving slower than about 25 mph (40 km/h): If the vehicle is moving

mph (40 km/h) regardless of current vehicle sp eed. If your vehicle is stationary and a
vehicle is detected ahead, your vehicle sp eed can be set, even with the brake pedal
depressed. When ACC with LSF starts operating, the
vehicle icon, interval bars and set speed
appear on the driver information interface.
When you use ACC with LSF, Straight Driving
