*: If equipped
Adaptive Cruise Con-
trol*
Adaptive Cruise Control is a
driving support system
intended to allow more com-
fortable driving on express-
ways, freeways and
interstate highways. The
stereo camera detects vehi-
cles in front that are driving
in the same traffic lane, and
your vehicle follows the
vehicle in front (up to the
maximum speed of the set
vehicle speed). While fol-
lowing, your vehicle will
automatically maintain a fol-
lowing distance that corre-
sponds to the speed of the
vehicle in front. The vehicle
is capable of being con-
trolled at a speed between 0
mph (0 km/h) and approxi-
mately 90 mph (145 km/h).
Please remember that you
should not exceed posted
speed limits.
WARNING
●This system does not provide
the driver with an automatic
driving function that handles all
traffic conditions.
●Do not rely excessively on
Adaptive Cruise Control. This
system is not intended to assist
in driving when the driver is not
paying full attention to what is
ahead of him/her due to distrac-
tions or a lack of concentration
while driving, or under condi-
tions of poor visibility. It is not
intended to prevent rear-end
collisions.
Strive for safe driving at all
times. Always maintain a safe
following distance behind the
vehicle in front of you, pay
attention to your surroundings
and the driving conditions, and
operate the brake pedal and
take other actions as necessary.
●When using Adaptive Cruise
Control, always set the speed
according to the speed limit,
traffic flow, road conditions, and
other conditions.
●Before using t he system, per-
form a daily inspection and ver-
ify that there are no
malfunctions of the tires or
brakes.
Refer to the separate “Owner’s
Warranty Informat ion Booklet” or
“Owner’s Manual Supple-
ment/Scheduled Maintenance
Guide”.
●When you do not want to use
Adaptive Cruise Control, be
sure to turn it off by pressing the
“ON-OFF” switch. If the switch
is left on, cruise control may be
accidentally engaged, possibly
resulting in an accident.
●Before using Adaptive Cruise
Control, be sure to fully verify
the safety of the vehicle occu-
pants and the area around the
vehicle. Never operate the
cruise control from outside the
vehicle.

Adaptive Cruise Control is
designed for use on expressways,
freeways, toll roads, interstate
highways and similar limited
access roads. It is not intended to
be used in city traffic. In the fol-
lowing conditions, do not use
Adaptive Cruise Control. Doing so
may result in an accident.
●Ordinary roads (roads other
than those mentioned above)
• Depending on the driving envi- ronment (complexity of roads
and other factors), the system
may not be able to perform as
the traffic conditions require,
and that may result in an acci-
dent.
●Sharp curves or winding roads

WARNING
●The windshield has become
fogged, scratched or smeared,
or snow, dirt, dust or frost has
adhered to it, or it is otherwise
affected. These will reduce the
stereo camera’s field of view.
Also, light is reflecting off the
dirt, etc.
●Water droplets from rain or the
window washer, or dirt has not
been fully wiped off the wind-
shield.
• It may not be po ssible to detect
the vehicle in front, making cor-
rect control impossible.
●The stereo camera’s field of
view is obstructed.
The stereo camera may have diffi-
culty detectin g the following
objects or conditions. Operate the
brake pedal and take other
actions as necessary.
●Vehicles at significantly different
speeds (vehicles driving slowly,
stopped or oncoming vehicles,
etc.)
●Vehicles cutting into your lane
●Motorcycles, bicycles, pedestri-
ans and animals, etc.
●Light is poor in the evening or
early morning.
●At night or in a tunnel without
the headlights on
●At night or in a tunnel when
there is a vehicle in front that
does not have its tail lights on
●Strong light is coming from the
front (sunlight or headlight high
beams, etc.).
●Vehicles in front that have a rear
aspect that is low, small or irreg-
ular (the system may recognize
another part of the vehicle and
will determine operation from
that)
• An empty truck or trailer that has no tailgate or longbed
• Vehicles that have cargo pro- truding from their back ends
• Non-standard shaped vehicles (vehicle transporters or vehi-
cles with a sideca r fitted, etc.)
• Vehicles that are low
●Objects that are located close to
the bumper of your vehicle
■Detection of the vehicle in
front by the EyeSight stereo
camera
*
●Under the following road condi-
tions or conditions of your vehi-
cle, detection of the vehicle in
front may not be possible. Vehi-
cles in neighboring traffic lanes
or roadside objects may also be
incorrectly detected. Under con-
ditions such as these, do not
use Adaptive Cruise Control. If
cruise control is currently in use,
operate the brake pedal and
take other actions as necessary.

WARNING
• Following begins from a short following distan ce, such as
when the vehicle in front is a
vehicle that cut into your lane.
• On curved roads, at the start and end of a curve and on
roads with continuous curves
(These conditions make it diffi-
cult for the system to detect
vehicles because they are out-
side the detectable area.)
• On an on-ramp or off-ramp to a freeway, highway, or other
restricted access road (Eye-
Sight Adaptive Cruise Control is
not designed for use in this kind
of driving environment.)
• In an urban or suburban envi- ronment (Adaptive Cruise Con-
trol is not appropriate for use in
these driving areas. Use Adap-
tive Cruise Control only on lim-
ited-access highways.)
• The vehicle in front is not
directly ahead of your vehicle
and is shifted to one side.
• There is an obstacle on the side of the road.
• The relative speed difference compared to the vehicle in front
is large.
• A vehicle cuts into your lane in front of you.
• The distance between vehicles is extremely short.
• Your vehicle is drifting within the lane.
• On a bumpy or unpaved road surface.
• On a road with extremely nar- row lanes, such as when traffic
restrictions are in effect or in
areas where construction work
is taking place.
• Normal driving has become unstable due to an accident or
malfunction.
• Extremely heavy cargo is loaded in the rear seat or trunk
of your vehicle.

WARNING
●There are limits to the situation
judgment capabilities of the
Adaptive Cruise Control system.
Deceleration may not take place
in time in the following situa-
tions. Apply the brake pedal to
decelerate the vehicle if neces-
sary.
• The speed difference with the vehicle in front is too large or
the vehicle in front decelerates
unexpectedly.
• The decelerating vehicle in front unexpectedly sl ows down or
suddenly brakes.
●If the alert/notification sounds
frequently, do not use Adaptive
Cruise Control.
●Even when the following dis-
tance is short, the “Obstacle
Detected” warning may not acti-
vate in the following situations.
• The difference in speed with the vehicle in front is small. The two
vehicles are traveling at almost
the same speed.
• The vehicle in fr ont is traveling
faster than your vehicle. The fol-
lowing distance is gradually
increasing.
• Another vehicle cuts into your lane very close to your vehicle.
• The vehicle in front decelerates suddenly.
• There are repeated uphill and downhill grades.
*: The recognition status of the
lead vehicle using the stereo
camera can be confirmed by the
illumination status of the lead
vehicle indicator. (
P.196)
NOTICE
●After Adaptive Cruise Control
has started, it maintains control
continuously according to the
behavior of the veh icle in front.
When your vehicle comes to a
stop because the vehicle in front
has stopped, the automatic
braking function will be can-
celed immediately after stop-
ping and the veh icle will start
creeping forward gradually (at
the same time 3 intermittent
beeps, 1 short beep and 1 long
beep will sound). Be sure to
depress the brake pedal and
stop the vehicle completely.
Note that the v ehicle is not
maintained at a standstill posi-
tion and will not automatically
start moving from a standstill
position.
●Braking may not be sufficient
depending on the following con-
ditions. Depress the brake
pedal and decelerate as neces-
sary.
• Vehicle conditions (amount of load, number of occupants, etc.)
• Road conditions (grade, slip- periness, shape, bumps, etc.)
• Vehicle maintenance condition (brake systems, tire wear, air
pressure, temporary spare tire
is being used, etc.)
• The brakes are cold. (For exam- ple, just after the engine is
started or the outside tempera-
ture is low.)
• For a short period of time when driving after the engine is
started until the engine has
warmed-up
• The brakes are overheated on downhill grades (braking perfor-
mance may be reduced).
