Each time you switch the system on, it
selects the last chosen gap setting.
Following a Vehicle
When a vehicle ahead of you enters the
same lane or a slower vehicle is ahead in
the same lane, the vehicle speed adjusts
to maintain the gap setting.
Note: When you are following a vehicle and
you switch on a turn signal lamp, adaptive
cruise control may provide a small,
temporary acceleration to help you pass.
Your vehicle maintains a consistent gap
from the vehicle ahead until:
• The vehicle in front of you accelerates
to a speed above the set speed.
• The vehicle in front of you moves out
of the lane you are in.
• You set a new gap distance.
The system applies the brakes to slow
down your vehicle to maintain a safe gap
distance from the vehicle in front of you.
The system only applies limited braking.
You can override the system by applying
the brakes.
Note: The brakes may emit noise when
applied by the system.

WHAT IS ACTIVE DRIVE
ASSIST
Active drive assist keeps your vehicle
centered in the lane and offers a
hands-free driving mode in certain
situations when using adaptive cruise
control.
HOW DOES ACTIVE DRIVE
ASSIST WORK
Active drive assist uses cameras to monitor
your vehicle position within a lane and
applies steering support to keep your
vehicle centered in the lane.
Using the cameras and location
information, active drive assist allows you
to remove your hands from the steering
wheel and offers a hands-free driving
mode in certain areas.
When active, active drive assist uses a
driver facing camera and infrared lighting
to monitor your eyes and head position to
detect if you are distracted. If the system
determines you are distracted, it alerts you
to return your eyes back to the road.
