will drive at that constant speed.
If a vehicle in front is detected while
accelerating to the set vehicle
speed, vehicle following will be
started again.
●When the brakes are applied by
Adaptive Cruise Control, the vehi-
cle’s stop lights will illuminate.
●Even if there is no lead vehicle
present, on a downhill grade, the
Adaptive Cruise Control’s auto-
matic brake may operate in order
to maintain the set vehicle speed.
●Some noises may be audible
during automatic braking. This is
caused by the braking control and
does not indicate a malfunction.
●To temporarily accelerate quickly,
use the accelerator pedal. After
accelerating, the vehicle will grad-
ually return to the set vehicle
speed shown in the set vehicle
speed display.
●If the vehicle in front is no longer
detected while your vehicle is still
controlled by the automatic brak-
ing operation, th e brake will be
automatically released gradually.
Depress the accelerator pedal if
necessary.
●The lead-vehicle following func-
tion has the following characteris-
tics:
• If the lead vehicle’s stop lights are
detected, deceleration will start
earlier than without detection.
• If the vehicle moves to the fast
lane while traveling more than approximately 37 mph (60 km/h),
the system starts acceleration to
the set vehicle speed more quickly
because it is linke
d with the turn
signal.
• If the setting of driving lane is dif-
ferent from the actual driving
direction, the vehicle may start to
accelerate faster than usual when
the driver signals a lane change to
move from the passing lane to the
driving lane. ( P.400)
●Cruise control acceleration char-
acteristics can be set to one of
four levels. ( P.400)
■Increasing the set vehicle
speed
Using the cruise control
switch
Push to the “+ RES” side
briefly.
Every time the switch is pushed,
the set vehicle speed will increase
in increments o f 1 mph (1 km/h)
increment.
Push to the “+ RES” side con-
tinuously.
While the switch is being pushed,
the set vehicle speed will increase
in increments o f 5 mph (5 km/h).
When operating the switch, the
set vehicle speed changes on
the meter display.
NOTICE
If the driver oper ates the brake
pedal during automatic braking,
the pedal may feel stiff; however,
this is not a malfunction. By
depressing the brake pedal fur-
ther you can apply more braking
force. When the brake pedal is
released it will return to its original
condition.

Using the accelerator pedal
1 Depress the accelerator
pedal to increase vehicle
speed.
2 When the desired speed is
reached, push the cruise
control switch to the “- SET”
side.
The speed at the time of pushing
the switch will be set as the new set
vehicle speed, and it appears on
the meter display.
■Decreasing the set vehicle
speed
Using the cruise control
switch
Push to the “- SET” side
briefly.
Every time the switch is pushed,
the set vehicle spee d will decrease
in decrements of 1 mph (1 km/h)

Push to the “- SET” side con-
NOTICE
●When the vehicle is following
the lead vehicle, the actual vehi-
cle speed is controlled accord-
ing to the lead vehicle.
Therefore, if the cruise control
switch is pushed to the “+ RES”
side and set to a speed higher
than the speed of the lead vehi-
cle, the vehicle will not acceler-
ate; it will maintain a safe
following distance as the first
priority. However, because
doing so changed the set vehi-
cle speed, when the lead vehi-
cle is no longer detected (for
example, if you change to a
freeway lane with no vehicles in
front), the vehicle will accelerate
to that new set vehicle speed.
Change the set vehicle speed
while briefly checking the value
shown in the set vehicle speed
display on the meter display.
●When the accelerator pedal is
depressed with Adaptive Cruise
Control on, automatic braking
control and warnings by Adap-
tive Cruise Control will not
occur. However, if there is a
high risk of co llision with an
obstacle in front of the vehicle at
this time, the warning and brak-
ing control of Pre-Collision
Braking System may activate.

to accelerate temporarily.
When the accelerator pedal is

the set vehicle speed.
When the driver accelerates the
vehicle by depressing the accel- erator pedal while Adaptive
Cruise Control is operating,

tion is completed, returns to

tance from the vehicle in
front
The following distance from the
vehicle in front setting can be
changed in 4 stages.
Each time the (Following
distance setting) switch is
pressed, the distance from the
vehicle in front changes.
●The following distance changes
corresponding with the vehicle
speed. The faster the vehicle trav-
els, the greater the following dis-
tance.

NOTICE
Ordinarily, while the vehicle is fol-
lowing the lead vehicle, accelera-
tion and deceleration are
performed automatically in accor-
dance with the speed of the lead
vehicle. However, when your
vehicle approaches a lead vehi-
cle, for example if it is necessary
to accelerate for a lane change or
other reason, and if the vehicle in
front suddenly decelerates, or if
another vehicle cuts into your
path, operate the accelerator
pedal or brake pedal to accelerate
or decelerate as appropriate for
the existing conditions.Following distance

that the vehicle speed needs
to be reduced manually by the

Vehicles in front in the same traffic
lane are detected by the stereo
camera within a distance of approxi-
mately 360 ft (110 m) in the forward
direction. However the detection
distance may be reduced depending
on the traffic environment, driving
conditions, and conditions of the
vehicle in front.
WARNING
●If the alert/notification sounds
frequently, do not use Adaptive
Cruise Control.
●The “Obstacle Detected” warn-
ing will not activate in the follow-
ing situations.
• The accelerator pedal is depressed.
• The brake pedal is depressed.
●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 fr ont decelerates
suddenly.
• There are rep eated uphill and
downhill grades.
●The “Obstacle Detected” warn-
ing may not activ ate in time in
the case of a v ehicle that is
stopped at the end of a line at a
toll gate, at a stop light or inter-
section or in traf fic congestion,
or a vehicle that is moving much
slower than your vehicle. Eye-
Sight requires a speed differen-
tial in order to recognize a
potential obstacle and react to
it.
