Smart Cruise Control (SCC)*†6
Smart Cruise Control 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 slow
down to maintain a set distance behind 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, 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 SCC speed:
•Press the CRUISE button A to turn system ON and set speed. The
CRUISE indicator will illuminate on the instrument cluster
•Accelerate/decelerate to the desired speed
•Press (SET-) button B down to set speed. The set speed and vehicle
distance will illuminate on the LCD screen
•Press button B up or down to adjust the set speed
To adjust the sensitivity of SCC: Press the Mode/Menu button on the
Steering Wheel C. With the OK button, when in User Settings mode, select
Driver Assistance, then SCC Reaction. Then select Slow, Normal or Fast.
To set the vehicle distance: Press the Vehicle Distance button D on
the steering wheel. The image on the LCD screen E will change when
scrolling through the settings.
To cancel SCC operation: Press the CANCEL button F or press the brake
pedal. The CRUISE indicator on the instrument cluster will turn OFF.
To turn SCC system OFF: Press the Driving Assist CRUISE button A. The
CRUISE indicator on the instrument cluster will turn OFF.
To switch modes: Press and hold button D for more than two seconds
to switch between standard Cruise Control and Smart Cruise Control.

For SCC to operate:
•When no vehicle is in front, you must be traveling at a minimum speed of 20 mph
•When following a vehicle, you must be traveling at a minimum speed of 6 mph
