• Tap the brake pedal; theindicator
(green) goes out.
• Push the cruise control ON/OFF switch off. The
indicator in the vehicle infor-
mation display go out.
The cruise control is automatically canceled
and the
indicator (green) in the vehicle
information display goes out if:
• You depress the brake pedal while pushing the RES+ or SET- switch. The preset speed
is deleted from memory.
• The vehicle slows down more than 8 mph (13 km/h) below the set speed.
• You move the shift lever to N (Neutral).
To reset at a faster cruising speed, use one of
the following three methods:
• Depress the accelerator pedal. When the vehicle attains the desired speed, push and
release the SET- switch.
• Push and hold the RES+ switch. When the vehicle attains the speed you desire, release
the switch.
• Push and release the RES+ switch. Each time you do this, the set speed increases by
about 1 mph (1.6 km/h). To reset at a slower cruising speed,
use one
of the following three methods:
• Lightly tap the brake pedal. When the ve- hicle attains the desired speed, push the
SET- switch and release it.
• Push and hold the SET- switch. Release the switch when the vehicle slows to the de-
sired speed.
• Push and release the SET- switch. Each time you do this, the set speed decreases by
about 1 mph (1.6 km/h).
To resume the preset speed, push and re-
lease the RES+ switch. The vehicle returns to
the last set cruising speed when the vehicle
speed is over 25 mph (40 km/h).
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-
tions for proper use of the ProPILOT Assist
system could result in serious injury or
death.
• ProPILOT Assist is not a self-driving
system. Within the limits of its capabili-
ties, as described in this manual, it helps
the driver with certain driving activities.
• The ProPILOT Assist system is not a re-
placement for proper driving procedures
and is not designed to correct careless,
inattentive or absent-minded driving.
ProPILOT Assist will not always steer
the vehicle to keep it in the lane. The Pro-
PILOT Assist system is not designed to
prevent loss of control. It is the driver’s
responsibility to stay alert, drive safely,
keep the vehicle in the traveling lane, and
be in control of the vehicle at all times.
• There are limitations to the ProPILOT
Assist system capability. The ProPILOT
Assist system does not function in all
driving, traffic, weather, and road condi-
tions. It is the driver’s responsibility to
stay alert, drive safely, keep the vehicle
in the traveling lane, and be in control of
the vehicle at all times.

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 con-
ventional (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 (32 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.
LSD4204
5-86Starting and driving
–When your vehicle is at a standstill
for 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 (32 km/h) to use this
function.
• For vehicles equipped with ProPILOT As- sist with Navi-link and only when on a lim-
ited access freeway (as identified in the
navigation map data):– The time the vehicle can remain stopped and automatically restart is extended
from 3 seconds to 30 seconds.
– If a vehicle ahead cuts in or out of the lane ahead, the vehicle may not auto-
matically start when the traffic ahead
begins to move. You need to push up the
RES+ switch or lightly depress the accel-
erator pedal to follow the vehicle directly
ahead when it is safe to do so.NOTE:Even if the Forward Emergency Braking
(FEB) with Pedestrian Detection setting is
turned off by the driver using the “Settings”
menu in the vehicle information display, FEB
with Pedestrian Detection will be automati-
cally 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).
