•
Consider moving your device closer to or far ther away from the code
•
The code should be well lit, without significant shadow
•Avoid scanning from a significant angle
•
Confirm that the device’s app suppor ts 2D QR Code scanning
•
Tr y another QR Code Reader App; not all apps are created equal

After scanning, you may experience a “connection error ” message or a “connecting” message with no subsequent response. These messages t ypically indicate that your device is having trouble connecting to the Internet

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 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.
On some models, press the Driving Assist button* on the Steering Wheel to activate and the speed will be set to the current vehicle speed. SCC may decrease the speed to maintain the distance with the vehicle in front.

•Push the Driving Assist button* A to turn the system ON & set the current speed (One-Touch Set). 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 the RES+/SET- (+/-) button* B up/down to increase/decrease the set speed
•The SET indicator light, set speed and vehicle distance will illuminate on the instrument cluster ’s LCD screen C
To set the vehicle distance: Press the Vehicle Distance button D on the steering wheel. The image on the LCD screen C will change when scrolling through the settings. Each time the button is pressed, the vehicle distance changes.
