2. Tap the brake pedal. The vehicle speed indicator will turn off.
3. Turn the ICC switch off. Both the cruise indicator and vehicle speed indicator will
turn off.
To reset at a faster cruising speed, use one of
the following three methods: 1. Depress the accelerator pedal. When the vehicle attains the desired speed, push
and release the SET- switch.
2. Push and hold the RES+ switch. When the vehicle attains the desired speed, re-
lease the switch.
3. Push, then quickly release the RES+ switch. Each time you do this, the set
speed will increase by about 1 mph
(1.6 km/h). To reset at a slower cruising speed, use one
of the following three methods:
1. Lightly tap the brake pedal. When the vehicle attains the desired speed, push
the SET- switch and release it.
2. Push and hold the SET- switch. Release the switch when the vehicle slows down
to the desired speed.

System temporarily unavailable
A chime sounds under the following conditions
and the control is automatically canceled:
∙ When the vehicle slows down more than8 mph (13 km/h) below the set speed
∙ When the shift lever is not in the D (Drive) or manual shift mode
∙
When the electronic parking brake is applied

When the system is not operating properly,
the chime sounds and the color of the cruise
indicator will change to orange.
Action to take
If the color of the cruise indicator changes to
orange, stop the vehicle in a safe place and
press the Park button to place the vehicle in
the P (Park) position. Turn the engine off,
restart the engine, resume driving, and then
perform the setting again.
If it is not possible to set or the indicator
stays on, it may indicate that the system is
malfunctioning. Although the vehicle is still
drivable under normal conditions, have the

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-
tions for proper use of the ProPILOT Assist
system could result in serious injury or
death.
∙ ProPILOT Assist is not a self-driving sys-tem. Within the limits of its capabilities,
as described in this manual, it helps the
driver with certain driving activities.
∙ The ProPILOT Assist system is not a re- placement for proper driving procedures
and is not designed to correct careless,
inattentive or absent-minded driving.
ProPILOT Assist will not always steer
the vehicle to keep it in the lane. The Pro-
PILOT Assist system is not designed to
prevent loss of control. It is the driver’s
responsibility to stay alert, drive safely,
keep the vehicle in the traveling lane, and
be in control of the vehicle at all times.
∙ There are limitations to the ProPILOT Assist system capability. The ProPILOT
Assist system does not function in all
driving, traffic, weather, and road condi-
tions. It is the driver’s responsibility to
stay alert, drive safely, keep the vehicle in
the traveling lane, and be in control of the
vehicle at all times. ∙ The ProPILOT Assist system is only an
aid to assist the driver and is not a colli-
sion warning or avoidance device.
∙ The ProPILOT Assist system is for high- way use only and is not intended for city
driving. Failure to apply the brakes or
steer the vehicle when necessary may re-
sult in a serious accident.
∙ Always observe posted speed limits and do not set the speed over them.
∙ Never take your hands off the steering wheel when driving. Always keep your
hands on the steering wheel and drive
your vehicle safely.
∙ The ProPILOT Assist system does not re- act to stationary and slow moving
vehicles.
∙ Always drive carefully and attentively when using the ProPILOT Assist system.
Read and understand the Owner’s
Manual thoroughly before using the Pro-
PILOT Assist system. To avoid serious in-
jury or death, do not rely on the system to
prevent accidents or to control the vehi-
cle’s speed in emergency situations. Do
not use the ProPILOT Assist system ex-
cept in appropriate road and traffic
conditions. The ProPILOT Assist system is intended to
enhance the operation of the vehicle when
following a vehicle traveling in the same lane
and direction.
The ProPILOT Assist system uses a multi-
sensing front camera
Ainstalled behind the
windshield and a radar sensor located on the
front of the vehicle
Bto measure the dis-
tance to the vehicle ahead in the same lane
and to monitor the lane markers. If the vehicle
detects a slower moving vehicle ahead, the
system will reduce the vehicle speed so that
your vehicle follows the vehicle in front at the
selected distance. The system will also help
keep the vehicle centered in the traveling lane
when clear lane markings are detected.

How to change the set vehicle
speed
The set vehicle speed can be adjusted.
To change to a faster cruising speed:

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.
