90 mph (32 to 144 km/h). When the
vehicle ahead slows to a stop, your
vehicle gradually decelerates to a
standstill. When the vehicle is stopped,
the ICC system maintains braking
force to keep your vehicle stopped.
NOTE:
When your vehicle is stopped for less than
3 seconds and the vehicle ahead begins to
move, your vehicle will start moving again
automatically. – When your vehicle is at a standstill formore than 3 seconds and the vehicle
ahead begins to accelerate, push the
RES+ switch or lightly depress the ac-
celerator pedal. The ICC system starts
to follow the vehicle ahead.
– When no vehicle is detected ahead within the driver selected distance, the
vehicle travels at the speed set by the
driver. The speed must be above
20 mph (32 km/h) to use this function. NOTE:
Even if the Forward Emergency Braking
with Pedestrian Detection setting is turned
off by the driver using the “Driver Assis-
tance” menu in the lower display, Forward
Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detec-
tion will be automatically turned on when
ICC is used.
2. Steering Assist
The Steering Assist function controls the
steering system to help keep your vehicle
within the traveling lane.
When there is no vehicle ahead, Steering
Assist is not available at speeds under
37 mph (60 km/h).

NOTE:
ProPILOT Assist provides no approach

sist in the conventional (fixed speed) cruise
control mode.
To choose the conventional (fixed speed)
cruise control mode, push and hold the Pro-
PILOT Assist switch for longer than approxi-
mately 1.5 seconds. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Conventional (fixed speed)
cruise control mode” in this section.

This turns on the ProPILOT Assist sys-
tem and displays the status of the Pro-
PILOT Assist system on the vehicle in-
formation display

(blue). When a vehicle ahead is traveling at a speed of 20 mph (32 km/h) or below
and the SET- switch is pushed, the set
speed of your vehicle is 20 mph

NOTE:
Turning the ProPILOT Assist system on will
turn on the Lane Departure Prevention sys-
tem at the same time. For additional infor-
mation, refer to “Lane Departure Preven-
tion” in this section. When the SET- switch is pushed under the
following conditions, the ProPILOT Assist
system cannot be set and the set vehicle

∙ When the shift lever is not in the D (Drive) position or manual shift mode
∙ When the electronic parking brake is ap- plied
∙ When the brakes are operated by the driver

How to change the set vehicle
speed
The set vehicle speed can be adjusted.
To change to a faster cruising speed:
∙ Push and hold the RES+ switch. The set vehicle speed increases by approximately
5 mph (5 km/h).
∙ Push, then quickly release, the RES+ switch. Each time you do this, the set
speed increases by approximately 1 mph
(1 km/h). To change to a slower cruising speed:
∙ Push and hold the SET- switch. The set vehicle speed decreases by approxi-
mately 5 mph (5 km/h).
∙ Push, then quickly release, the SET- switch. Each time you do this, the set
speed decreases by approximately 1 mph
(1 km/h).
How to momentarily accelerate or
decelerate
∙ Depress the accelerator pedal when ac-celeration is required. Release the accel-
erator pedal to resume the previously set
vehicle speed.
∙ Depress the brake pedal when decelera- tion is required. Control by the ProPILOT
Assist system is canceled. Push the RES+
switch to resume the previously set ve-
hicle speed.

WARNING
When the accelerator pedal is depressed
and you are approaching the vehicle ahead,
the ICC system will neither control the
brake nor warn the driver with the chime
and display. The driver must manually con-
trol the vehicle speed to maintain a safe
distance to the vehicle ahead. Failure to do
so could result in severe personal injury or
death.
NOTE:
When you accelerate by depressing the ac-
celerator pedal or decelerate by pushing the
SET- switch and the vehicle travels faster
than the speed set by the driver, the set
speed vehicle indicator will blink.
How to change the set distance to
the vehicle ahead
The distance to the vehicle ahead can be
selected at any time.
Each time the DISTANCE switch
Ais
pushed, the set distance will change to long,
middle, short and back to long again in that
sequence.

∙ The distance to the vehicle ahead changes automatically according to the
vehicle speed. The higher the vehicle
speed, the longer the distance.
∙ If the engine is stopped, the set distance becomes “long.” (Each time the engine is
started, the initial setting becomes
“long.”)
