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.
3. Push, then quickly release the SET- switch. Each time you do this, the set
speed will decrease by about 1 mph
(1.6 km/h).
To resume the preset speed, push and re-
lease the RES+ switch. The vehicle will re-
sume the last set cruising speed when the
vehicle speed is over 25 mph (40 km/h).
System temporarily unavailable
A chime sounds under the following conditions
and the control is automatically canceled:
• When the vehicle slows down more than 8 mph (13 km/h) below the set speed
Starting and driving5-79

NOTE:
Steering Assist is not available in the
conventional (fixed speed) cruise con-
trol mode.
•Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control
mode: The ICC system maintains a se-
lected distance from the vehicle in front
of you within the speed range of 0 to
90 mph (0 to 144 km/h) up to the set
speed. The set speed can be selected
by the driver between 20 to 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 for more than 3 seconds and the vehicle
ahead begins to accelerate, push the
RES+ switch or lightly depress the
accelerator 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 Automatic Emergency
Braking (AEB) setting is turned off by
the driver using the “Settings” menu in
the vehicle information display, AEB
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).
Starting and driving5-83

• The ICC system does not react tostationary and slow moving ve-
hicles.
• Always drive carefully and atten- tively when using the ICC system.
Read and understand the Owner’s
Manual thoroughly before using the
ICC system. To avoid serious injury or
death, do not rely on the system to
prevent accidents or to control the
vehicle’s speed in emergency situa-
tions. Do not use the ICC system ex-
cept in appropriate road and traffic
conditions.
ICC system operation
The ICC system is designed to maintain a
selected distance from the vehicle in front
of you and can reduce the speed to match
a slower vehicle ahead. The system decel-
erates the vehicle as necessary and if the
vehicle ahead comes to a stop, the vehicle
decelerates to a standstill. However, the ICC
system can only apply up to 40% of the
vehicle’s total braking power. This system
should only be used when traffic condi-
tions allow vehicle speeds to remain fairly
constant or when vehicle speeds change gradually. If a vehicle moves into the travel-
ing lane ahead or if a vehicle traveling
ahead rapidly decelerates, the distance be-
tween vehicles may become closer be-
cause the ICC system cannot decelerate
the vehicle quickly enough. If this occurs,
the ICC system sounds a warning chime
and blinks the system display to notif y the
driver to take necessary action.
The ICC system cancels and a warning
chime sounds if the speed is below ap-
proximately 15 mph (24 km/h) and a vehicle
is not detected ahead.
The ICC system operates as follows:
• When there are no vehicles traveling
ahead, the ICC system maintains the
speed set by the driver. The set speed
range is between approximately 20 and
90 mph (32 and 144 km/h).
• When there is a vehicle traveling ahead, the ICC system adjusts the speed to
maintain the distance, selected by the
driver, from the vehicle ahead. If the ve-
hicle ahead comes to a stop, the vehicle
decelerates to a standstill. Once your
vehicle stops, the ICC system keeps the
vehicle stopped. • 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 for more than 3 seconds and the vehicle
ahead begins to accelerate, push the RES+
switch or lightly depress the accelerator
pedal. The ICC system starts to follow the
vehicle ahead.
• When the vehicle traveling ahead moves to a different traveling lane, the ICC system
accelerates and maintains vehicle speed
up to the set speed.
The ICC system does not control vehicle
speed or warn you when you approach
stationary and slow moving vehicles. You
must pay attention to vehicle operation to
maintain proper distance from vehicles
ahead when approaching toll gates or traf-
fic congestion.
5-92Starting and driving

Vehicle detected ahead
When a vehicle is detected in the lane
ahead, the ICC system decelerates the ve-
hicle by controlling the throttle and apply-
ing the brakes to match the speed of a
slower vehicle ahead. The ICC system then
controls the vehicle speed based on the
speed of the vehicle ahead to maintain the
driver selected distance.
NOTE:
•The stop lights of the vehicle come on
when braking is performed by the ICC
system.
• When the brake is applied by the sys-
tem, a noise may be heard. This is not a
malfunction.
When the ICC system detects a vehicle
ahead, the vehicle ahead detection indica-
tor and the speed control status indicator
(distance control mode) illuminates (solid
green
).
Vehicle ahead stops
When the vehicle ahead decelerates to
stop, your vehicle decelerates to a stand-
still. Once your vehicle stops, the ICC sys-
tem automatically applies the brakes to
keep the vehicle stopped. When your ve-
hicle is at a standstill, the “(RES+) Press to
start” message is displayed on the vehicle
information display.
NOTE:
When your vehicle stops for less than
3 seconds, your vehicle will automati-
cally follow the vehicle as it acceler-
ates from a stop.
Vehicle ahead accelerates
When your vehicle is stopped and the ve-
hicle ahead begins to accelerate, push the
RES+ switch or lightly depress the accelera-
tor pedal. The ICC system starts to follow
the vehicle ahead.
Vehicle ahead not detected
When a vehicle is no longer detected
ahead, the ICC system gradually acceler-
ates your vehicle to resume the previously
set vehicle speed. The ICC system then
maintains the set speed.
When a vehicle is no longer detected, the
vehicle ahead detection indicator turns off
and the speed control status indicator
(maintain speed control mode) illuminates
(green outline
).
The ICC system gradually accelerates to
the set speed, but you can depress the
accelerator pedal to quickly accelerate.
When a vehicle is no longer detected and
your vehicle is traveling under approxi-
mately 15 mph (24 km/h), the ICC system
automatically cancels.

5-94Starting and driving

Acceleration when passing
When the ICC system is engaged above
43 mph and following a slower vehicle (be-
low ICC set speed), and the turn signal is
activated to the lef t, the ICC system will
automatically start to accelerate the ve-
hicle to help initiate passing on the lef t and
will begin to reduce the distance to the
vehicle directly ahead. Only the lef t side
turn signal operates this feature. As the
driver steers the vehicle and moves into
the passing lane, if no vehicle is detected
ahead the ICC system will continue to ac-
celerate to the ICC system set speed. If an-
other vehicle is detected ahead, then the
vehicle will accelerate up to the following
speed of that vehicle. If the vehicle is not
steered into the lef t lane to pass, the accel-
eration will stop af ter a short time and re-
gain the set following distance. Accelera-
tion can be stopped at any point by
depressing the brake pedal or the CANCEL
switch on the steering wheel.WARNING
In order to reduce the risk of a collision
that may result in serious injury or
death, please be aware of the follow-
ing:
• This function is only activated with the lef t turn signal and will briefly
accelerate the vehicle even if a lane
change is not initiated. This can in-
clude non-passing situations such
as lef t side exits.
• Ensure that when passing another vehicle, the adjacent lane is clear be-
fore initiating the pass. Sudden
changes in traffic may occur while
passing.
– Always manually steer or brake asneeded
– Never solely rely on the system
ICC system limitations
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for the ICC system. Failure to op-
erate the vehicle in accordance with
these system limitations could result
in serious injury or death:
• The ICC system is primarily intended for use on straight, dry, open roads
with light traffic. It is not advisable to
use the ICC system in city traffic or
congested areas.
• The ICC system will not adapt auto- matically to road conditions. This
system should be used in evenly
flowing traffic. Do not use the sys-
tem on roads with sharp curves or
on icy roads, in heavy rain or in fog.
5-96Starting and driving

• Driving on a steep downhill slope or roadswith sharp curves
• Driving on a bumpy road surface, such as an uneven dirt road
• If dirt, ice, snow or other material is cover- ing the radar sensor area
• A complicated-shaped vehicle such as a car carrier trailer or flatbed truck/trailer is
near the vehicle ahead
• Interference by other radar sources
• When your vehicle is towing a trailer, etc.
• When excessively heavy baggage is loaded in the rear seat or cargo area of
your vehicle
The ICC system is designed to automati-
cally check the radar sensor’s operation
within the limitations of the system. The detection zone of the radar sensor is
limited. A vehicle ahead must be in the de-
tection zone for the ICC system to maintain
the selected distance from the vehicle
ahead. A vehicle ahead may move outside
of the detection zone due to its position
within the same lane of travel. Motorcycles
may not be detected in the same lane
ahead if they are traveling offset from the
center line of the lane. A vehicle that is en-
tering the lane ahead may not be detected
until the vehicle has completely moved into
the lane.
If this occurs, the ICC system may warn you
by blinking the system indicator and
sounding the chime. The driver may have
to manually control the proper distance
away from the vehicle traveling ahead.
The ICC system (with ProPILOT Assist) uses
a multi-sensing front camera. The follow-
ing are some conditions in which the cam-
era may not properly detect a vehicle and
detection of a vehicle ahead may be de-
layed:
• Poor visibility (conditions such as rain,
snow, fog, dust storms, sandstorms, and
road spray from other vehicles)
• The camera area of the windshield is fogged up or covered with dirt, water
drops, ice, snow, etc.
• Strong light (for example, sunlight or high beams from oncoming vehicles) enters
the front camera
• A sudden change in brightness occurs (for example, when the vehicle enters or exits
a tunnel or shaded area or lightning
flashes)
