The Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go* system is designed to maintain a predetermined distance from vehicles detected
ahead by automatically adjusting the driving speed as needed. When traffic is detected, the vehicle will automatically slow to
maintain a set distance between traffic without depressing the accelerator or brake pedal.
With the SCC on and activated, the vehicle-to-vehicle distance set, and the system detects a vehicle slowing or stopping, the system
can bring the vehicle to a complete stop. When the vehicle ahead starts to move forward, the SCC system re-engages. If the vehicle
ahead stops for more than 3 seconds, the accelerator pedal or the RES+ button must be pressed to start moving the vehicle.
To set/adjust the SCC speed:
•Push the CRUISE button A to turn the system ON. The CRUISE indicator will illuminate on the instrument cluster
•Accelerate/decelerate to the desired speed and press lever B down to set the speed
•Press button B down to set the speed. Press the RES+/SET- button B up/down to increase/decrease the set speed
•The SET indicator light, set speed and vehicle-to-vehicle distance will illuminate on the instrument cluster’s LCD screen
To set the vehicle-to-vehicle distance: Press the SCC button C on the steering wheel. The image on the LCD screen D
will change when scrolling through the settings. Each time the button is pressed, the vehicle-to-vehicle distance changes.
To cancel SCC operation: Press the CANCEL button E. The CRUISE indicator on the instrument cluster will turn OFF.
To turn SCC system OFF: Press the CRUISE button A. The CRUISE indicator on the instrument cluster will turn OFF.
