Convenience Net
This vehicle may have a
convenience net in the rear of
the vehicle. Attach it to the
cargo tie-downs for storing
small loads.
Do not use the net to store
heavy loads.
Roof Rack System
The vehicle may be equipped
with side-rails for a roof rack
system. Cargo must be
secured with properly installed
cross rails and other
accessories designed to carry
cargo. These can be
purchased from your dealer.
{Warning
Before driving and
occasionally during a trip,
check that cargo is securely
fastened, rests evenly
between the cross rails and
does not block the vehicle's(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
lamps or windows. Never
load cargo directly on the
roof of the vehicle or allow
cargo to hang over the rear
or sides of the vehicle.
Never load cargo without
first properly installing cross
rails and other accessories
designed to carry cargo.
Personal injury, death or
damage to the vehicle or
other property may occur.
If driving for a long distance,
on rough roads, or at high
speeds, occasionally stop the
vehicle to make sure the cargo
remains in its place.
Cargo Weight Limits
Do not exceed the maximum
cargo weight for the roof rack
system, including the weight
of the cross rails and any
other accessories used to
carry the cargo such as bike
racks or roof boxes. The maximum cargo weight that
can be loaded onto the roof
rack system is 100 kg (220 lb)
or the weight designated in
the instructions that came
with the cross rails or other
roof rack accessories,
whichever is less.
{Warning
Never load the roof rack
with more weight than
specified in this section.
Loading cargo on the roof
rack will make the vehicle's
center of gravity higher. To
avoid losing control of the
vehicle, avoid overloading,
high speeds, sudden starts,
sharp turns, sudden braking,
or abrupt maneuvers when
carrying cargo on the
roof rack.
The weight of any cargo
carried on the roof rack
system must be included in
calculating the loaded weight
of the vehicle. Do not exceed

the maximum vehicle capacity
when loading the vehicle,
including cargo carried on the
roof rack system and
passengers and cargo carried
in the vehicle. For more
information on vehicle
capacity and loading, see
Vehicle Load Limits0247.

288 Driving and Operating
Do not use ACC when driving
on steep hills or when towing
a trailer. ACC will not detect a
vehicle in the lane while driving
on steep hills. If the brakes are
applied, ACC disengages.
Disengaging ACC
There are three ways to
disengage ACC:
.Step lightly on the brake
pedal.
.Press*.
.Press5.
Erasing Speed Memory
The cruise control set speed is
erased from memory if
5is
pressed or if the ignition is
turned off.
Weather Conditions
Affecting ACC
System operation may be
limited under snow, heavy rain,
or road spray conditions. Accessory Installations and
Vehicle Modifications
Do not install or place any
object around the front
camera windshield area that
would obstruct the front
camera view.
Do not install objects on top of
the vehicle that overhang and
obstruct the front camera,
such as a canoe, kayak,
or other items that can be
transported on a roof rack
system. See Roof Rack
System
0109.
Do not modify the hood,
headlamps, or fog lamps, as
this may limit the camera’s
ability to detect an object.
Cleaning the Sensing System
The camera sensor on the
windshield behind the
rearview mirror can become
blocked by snow, ice, dirt, mud,
or debris. This area needs to
be cleaned for ACC to operate
properly. The vehicle headlamps may
need to be cleaned due to dirt,
snow, or ice. Objects that are
not illuminated correctly may
be difficult to detect.
If ACC will not operate, regular
cruise control may be
available. See
“Switching
Between ACC and Regular
Cruise Control” previously in
this section. Always consider
driving conditions before using
either cruise control system.
For cleaning instructions, see
“Washing the Vehicle” under
Exterior Care 0416.Driver Assistance
Systems
This vehicle may have features
that work together to help
avoid crashes or reduce crash
damage while driving, backing,
and parking. Read this entire
section before using these
systems.
