the BCW system boundary B, or when a vehicle is detected
within the boundary C approaches at a high speed, a yellow
indicator will illuminate on the outside rearview mirrors.
2nd-stage alert: When 1st-stage alert is on and the driver
activates a turn signal, a flashing yellow indicator will

Smart Cruise Control (SCC) with Stop & Go*†6 (continued)
REMINDERS: •
The cruise control system will not activate until the brake pedal has been depressed at least once after the ignition is ON or engine starting •
When following a vehicle, the system will automatically adjust your cruise speed based on the vehicle detected in front •
SCC is also canceled when the driver’s door is opened, gear shift is changed out of D (Drive), EPB is activated, and various other conditions. See the Owner’s Manual for other conditions •
If SCC is left on, it can be activated inadvertently. Keep the system off when not in use to avoid setting a speed which the driver is not aware of •
SCC is a supplemental system and is not a substitute for safe driving. It is the responsibility of the driver to always check the speed and distance to the vehicle ahead
•
•The speed setting for SCC can be adjusted under the following conditions:
•You must be traveling at a minimum speed of 20 mph (may vary on newer models)
•
When following a vehicle, there is no minimum speed requirement
•
When following a vehicle, the system can automatically adjust your cruise speed based on the vehicle detected ahead. If the vehicle detected ahead remains at a standstill and your vehicle is also stopped for longer than 3 seconds, the system will need to be reactivated by pressing the gas pedal or pressing the RES button
QUICK TIPS
REMINDERS:
• NSCC-C requires an active navigation subscription
• NSCC-C is only available on controlled access roads and highways
Navigation-based Smart Cruise Control - Curve (NSCC-C) can automatically adjust the vehicle speed when it detects a
curved road ahead and when it receives road information from the navigation system.
To turn on NSCC-C, go to User Settings in the instrument cluster or Vehicle Settings* in the audio head unit, by selecting
Driving Convenience*, Highway Auto Speed Change. When SCC is on and operating, driving on limited/controlled access
highways and NSCC-C is turned on, then NSCC-C is enabled and the AUTO icon A will illuminate white on the Instrument
C lu s t er.
When NSCC-C detects a curve ahead, activates and reduces the vehicle speed, the AUTO icon A will turn green. When
the vehicle passes the curved road, the vehicle may return to its previously set SCC speed.
Autoset (Automatic change of set speed): If the set speed is set to the current speed limit on the highway during NSCC-C
operation, the set speed is changed automatically whenever the speed limit changes.

Highway Driving Assist (HDA) Video
Highway Driving Assist (HDA)*†6
Highway Driving Assist (HDA) is designed to adjust the speed of the vehicle when driving on limited/
controlled access highways/freeways. The system can adjust the vehicle’s speed based on available
highway speed information. The automatic speed setting mode is designed to set the speed
automatically by adjusting to the current speed limits of the highway the vehicle is traveling on.
To activate HDA, turn Smart Cruise Control (SCC) on by pressing the Driving Assist CRUISE /
Driving Assist Mode CRUISE button* A on the Steering Wheel. When HDA is activated and the
conditions are met, the Instrument Cluster indicator B will illuminate green. If the conditions are
not met, HDA will be in standby mode and the indicator light B will illuminate white. When in
operation, and if both lanes are recognized, the Instrument Cluster will show the lanes illuminated
white and the HDA indicator illuminated green B.
If HDA is activated, conditions are met and the SCC speed is set by the driver (at the posted
highway speed limit or slower), HDA will enter the automatic speed setting mode. The set speed
and AUTO will be displayed C in green and an audible alert will sound.
HDA will operate only when these conditions are met:
• The vehicle is traveling slower than 95 mph or the highway speed limit
• When driving on limited/controlled access highways/freeways
• When the SCC is on and operating
• When the SCC speed is set to current posted highway speed or slower
HDA User Settings:
To enable HDA, press the Mode button D on the Steering Wheel and go to User Settings
in the Instrument Cluster. Press the Move (OK ) button E up/down and press Driver Assistance,
then Driving Assist, Highway Driving Assist. Then press the OK button E to enable.
