HOW DOES ADAPTIVE CRUISE
CONTROL WITH STOP AND GO
WORK
Adaptive cruise control with stop and go
uses radar and camera sensors to maintain
a set gap between your vehicle and the
vehicle in front of you while following it to
a complete stop. Stop and go can also be
set to follow a vehicle directly in front of
you and adjust the set speed, while you are
at a complete stop.
ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL
PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: You are responsible for
controlling your vehicle at all times. The
system is designed to be an aid and does
not relieve you of your responsibility to
drive with due care and attention. Failure
to follow this instruction could result in
the loss of control of your vehicle,
personal injury or death. WARNING: Do not use adaptive
cruise control on winding roads, in heavy
traffic or when the road surface is
slippery. This could result in loss of
vehicle control, serious injury or death. WARNING:
Pay close attention to
changing road conditions such as
entering or leaving a highway, on roads
with intersections or roundabouts, roads
without visible lanes of travel, roads that
are unpaved, or steep slopes. Failure to
follow this instruction could result in the
loss of control of your vehicle, personal
injury or death. WARNING:
The system is not a
crash warning or avoidance system. WARNING:
Do not use the system
when towing a trailer that has
aftermarket electronic trailer brake
controls. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in the loss of control of your
vehicle, personal injury or death. WARNING:
Do not use tire sizes
other than those recommended because
this can affect the normal operation of
the system. Failure to do so may result
in a loss of vehicle control, which could
result in serious injury. WARNING:
Do not use the system
with a snow plow blade installed. WARNING:
Do not use the system
in poor visibility, for example fog, heavy
rain, spray or snow.
When Following a Vehicle WARNING:
When following a
vehicle that is braking, your vehicle does
not always decelerate quickly enough to
avoid a crash without driver intervention.
Apply the brakes when necessary. Failure
to follow this instruction could result in
personal injury or death.
Hilly Condition Usage
Select a lower gear when the system is
active in situations such as prolonged
downhill driving on steep slopes, for
example in mountainous areas.

ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL
AUTOMATIC CANCELLATION
The system may cancel if:
• The tires lose traction.
• You apply the parking brake.
The system may cancel and set the parking
brake if:
• You unbuckle the seatbelt and open
the driver door after you stop your
vehicle.
• Your vehicle is at a stop continuously
for more than three minutes.
The system may deactivate or prevent
activating when requested if:
• The vehicle has a blocked sensor.
• The brake temperature is too high.
• There is a failure in the system or a
related system.
SETTING THE ADAPTIVE
CRUISE CONTROL SPEED
Drive to the speed you prefer. Press the SET+ or SET- buttons
to set the current speed.
Take your foot off the accelerator pedal. The indicator, current gap setting and set
speed appear in the instrument cluster
display.
A vehicle image illuminates if there is a
vehicle detected in front of you.
Note:
When adaptive cruise control is
active, the speedometer may vary slightly
from the set speed displayed in the
instrument cluster display.
Setting the Adaptive Cruise Speed
from a Complete Stop Press the SET+ or SET- buttons
while keeping the brake pedal
fully depressed.
The set speed adjusts to 20 km/h when in
metric units or 15 mph when in imperial
units.
The indicator, current gap setting and set
speed appear in the instrument cluster
display.
Note: The system activates from a
complete stop only when it detects a lead
vehicle in close proximity.

LANE CENTERING LIMITATIONS
Adaptive cruise control limitations apply
to lane centering unless stated otherwise
or contradicted by a lane centering
limitation. See Adaptive Cruise Control
Limitations (page 332).
Lane Centering may not correctly operate
in any of the following conditions:
• The lane is too narrow or wide.
• The system does not detect at least
one lane marking or when lanes merge
or split.
• Limited steering torque input is applied.
• Areas under construction or new
infrastructure.
• When modifications to the steering
system have been made.
• When using a spare tire.
• In high wind conditions.
Note: The driving assistance torque is
limited and may not be sufficient for all
driving situations such as driving through
tight curves or driving through curves at high
speeds.
Note: In exceptional conditions, such as
inclement weather or direct sunlight, the
system could deviate from the center line
or could cancel.
SWITCHING LANE CENTERING ON
AND OFF
You must keep your hands on the steering
wheel at all times.
The controls are on the steering wheel. Press the button.
The indicator appears in the information
display. When the system is on, the color
of the indicator changes to indicate the
system status. You can override the system at any time
by steering your vehicle.
Note:
The correct requirements must be
met before you can switch the system on.
See
Lane Centering Requirements (page
338).

LANE CENTERING ALERTS
You must keep your hands on the steering
wheel at all times.
When the system is active and detects no
steering activity for a period of time, the
system alerts you to put your hands on the
steering wheel. If you do not react to the
warnings the system cancels and slows
your vehicle down to idle speeds while
maintaining steering control.
See Lane
Centering Automatic Cancellation
(page
339).
The system also alerts you if your vehicle
crosses lane markings without detected
steering activity.
Note: The system could detect a light grip
or touch on the steering wheel as hands-off
driving.
LANE CENTERING AUTOMATIC
CANCELLATION
When an external condition cancels the
system, for example, no lane markings
available, a tone sounds and a message
appears in the instrument cluster display.

WARNING: Do not use the system
if any changes or modifications to the
steering wheel have been made. Any
changes or modifications to the steering
wheel could affect the functionality or
performance of the system. Failure to
follow this instruction could result in the
loss of control of your vehicle, personal
injury or death. WARNING:
The system may not
function if the sensor is blocked. WARNING:
Pay close attention to
changing road conditions such as
entering or leaving a highway, on roads

slopes. WARNING:
The system is not a
crash warning or avoidance system. WARNING:
Large contrasts in
outside lighting can limit sensor
performance. WARNING:
The system attempts
to keep your vehicle in the center of the
lane as well as maintain speed and gap
control. The system may not be able to
perform these tasks in all situations. Do
not use the system in complex or
uncertain driving conditions. Failure to
follow this instruction could result in the
loss of control of your vehicle, personal
injury or death. WARNING: Your vehicle could drift
out of the lane of travel. Always be
prepared to manually steer your vehicle.
