SYSTEM TEMPORARILY
UNAVAILABLE
When radar blockage is detected, the system
will be deactivated automatically. The “Un-
available: Side Radar Obstruction” warning
message will appear in the vehicle informa-
tion display.
The systems are not available until the condi-
tions no longer exist.
The radar sensors may be blocked by tempo-
rary ambient conditions such as splashing
water, mist or fog.
The blocked condition may also be caused by
objects such as ice, snow, frost or dirt ob-
structing the radar sensors.
NOTE:
If the BSW system stops working, the RCTA
system will also stop working.
Action to take
When the above conditions no longer exist,
the system will resume automatically.
Malfunction
When the RCTA system malfunctions, it will
turn off automatically. The system malfunc-
tion warning message will appear in the ve-
hicle information display.

PROPILOT ASSIST SYSTEM
OPERATION1Steering-wheel-mounted control (left)
2Vehicle information display
3Steering-wheel-mounted control (right)
4ProPILOT Assist switch
The ProPILOT Assist system has the follow-
ing two functions:
1. Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC)
The ICC system can be set to one of two
cruise control modes:
• Conventional (fixed speed) cruise control
mode: For cruising at a preset speed
NOTE:Steering assist is not available in the conven-
tional (fixed speed) cruise control mode.
•Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode:
The ICC system maintains a selected dis-
tance from the vehicle in front of you within
the speed range of 0 to 90 mph (0 to 144
km/h) up to the set speed. The set speed
can be selected by the driver between 20 to
90 mph (30 to 144 km/h). When the ve-
hicle ahead slows to a stop, your vehicle
gradually decelerates to a standstill. When
the vehicle is stopped, the ICC system
maintains braking force to keep your ve-
hicle stopped.
NOTE:When your vehicle is stopped for less than 3
seconds and the vehicle ahead begins to
move, your vehicle will start moving again
automatically.

Page 322 of 526

– When your vehicle is at a standstillfor more than 3 seconds and the ve-
hicle ahead begins to accelerate,
push the RES+ switch or lightly de-
press the accelerator pedal. The ICC
system starts to follow the vehicle
ahead.
– When no vehicle is detected ahead within the driver selected distance,
the vehicle travels at the speed set by
the driver. The speed must be above
20 mph (30 km/h) to use this func-
tion.
NOTE:Even if the Forward Emergency Braking
with Pedestrian Detection setting is turned
off by the driver using the “Driver Assis-
tance” menu in the lower display, Forward
Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detec-
tion will be automatically turned on when
ICC is used. 2.
Steering Assist
The Steering Assist function controls the
steering system to help keep your vehicle
within the traveling lane.
When there is no vehicle ahead, Steering
Assist is not available at speeds under 37
mph (60 km/h).ProPILOT Assist switches

TURNING THE CONVENTIONAL
(fixed speed) CRUISE CONTROL
MODE ON
NOTE:
ProPILOT Assist provides no approach
warnings, automatic braking, or steering as-
sist in the conventional (fixed speed) cruise
control mode.
To choose the conventional (fixed speed)
cruise control mode, push and hold the Pro-
PILOT Assist switch for longer than approxi-
mately 1.5 seconds. For additional informa-
tion, see “Conventional (fixed speed) cruise
control mode” (P. 5-101).

1. Push the ProPILOT Assist switchOA. This
turns on the ProPILOT Assist system.
2. A screen is displayed for a period of time that indicates the status of the driving aid
functions.
• FEB, LDW and BSW are enabled when the specified driving aid is shaded.
• LDP is enabled when the driving aid is solid.
• To change the status of the driving aids, use the
O1orO2button to navigate the
settings screen. For additional informa-
tion, see “How to use the vehicle infor-
mation display” (P. 2-20) 3. The status of the ProPILOT Assist system
is displayed in the vehicle information dis-
play

4. Accelerate or decelerate your vehicle to the desired speed.
5.
Push the SET- switchOC. The ProPILOT
Assist system begins to automatically
maintain the set speed. The ProPILOT As-
sist activation indicator

When a vehicle ahead is traveling at a speed
of 20 mph (30 km/h) or below and the
SET- switch is pushed, the set speed of
your vehicle is 20 mph (30 km/h).
NOTE:
When “Lane Intervention” is selected in the
settings menu, turning the ProPILOT Assist
system on will activate the LDP system at
the same time. If “Lane Intervention” is not
selected in the settings menu, LDP will auto-
matically activate when the ProPILOT As-
sist system is “SET”. For additional informa-
tion, see “Lane Departure Prevention (LDP)”
(P. 5-39).

To change to a slower cruising speed:
• Push and hold the SET- switch. The setvehicle speed decreases by approximately
5 mph (5 km/h).
• Push, then quickly release, the SET- switch. Each time you do this, the set speed de-
creases by approximately 1 mph (1 km/h).
How to momentarily accelerate or
decelerate
• Depress the accelerator pedal when accel-eration is required. Release the accelerator
pedal to resume the previously set vehicle
speed.
• Depress the brake pedal when deceleration is required. Control by the ProPILOT Assist
system is canceled. Push the RES+ switch
to resume the previously set vehicle speed.
WARNING
When the accelerator pedal is depressed
and you are approaching the vehicle ahead,
the ICC system will neither control the
brake nor warn the driver with the chime
and display. The driver must manually con-
trol the vehicle speed to maintain a safe
distance to the vehicle ahead. Failure to do
so could result in severe personal injury or
death.
NOTE:
When you accelerate by depressing the ac-
celerator pedal or decelerate by pushing the
SET- switch and the vehicle travels faster
than the speed set by the driver, the set
speed vehicle indicator will blink.
How to change the set distance to
the vehicle ahead
The distance to the vehicle ahead can be
selected at any time.
Each time the DISTANCE switch
OAis
pushed, the set distance will change to long,
middle, short and back to long again in that
sequence.
