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.
PROPILOT ASSIST (if so equipped)

Vehicle detected ahead
When a vehicle is detected in the lane ahead,
the ICC system decelerates the vehicle by
controlling the throttle and applying the
brakes to match the speed of a slower vehicle
ahead. The ICC system then controls the ve-
hicle speed based on the speed of the vehicle
ahead to maintain the driver selected
distance.
NOTE:
•The stop lights of the vehicle come on when
braking is performed by the ICC system.
• When the brake is applied by the system,a noise may be heard. This is not a
malfunction.
When the ICC system detects a vehicle
ahead, the vehicle ahead detection indicator
and the speed control status indicator (dis-
tance control mode) illuminates (solid green
).
Vehicle ahead stops
When the vehicle ahead decelerates to stop,
your vehicle decelerates to a standstill. Once
your vehicle stops, the ICC system automati-
cally applies the brakes to keep the vehicle
stopped. When your vehicle is at a standstill,
the “(RES+) Press to start” message is dis-
played on the vehicle information display.
NOTE:
When your vehicle stops for less than 3 sec-
onds, your vehicle will automatically follow
the vehicle as it accelerates from a stop.
Vehicle ahead accelerates
• When your vehicle is stopped for less than approximately 3 seconds and the vehicle
ahead begins to move, your vehicle will
start moving again automatically. • When your vehicle is at a standstill for more
than approximately 3 seconds and the ve-
hicle ahead begins to accelerate, push up
the RES+ switch or lightly depress the ac-
celerator pedal. The ICC system starts to
follow the vehicle ahead.
• Always check surroundings before restart- ing the vehicle.
• 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.Vehicle ahead not detected
When a vehicle is no longer detected ahead,
the ICC system gradually accelerates your
vehicle to resume the previously set vehicle
speed. The ICC system then maintains the set
speed.

ICC system limitations
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
the ICC system. Failure to operate the ve-
hicle in accordance with these system limi-
tations could result in serious injury or
death: •
The ICC system is primarily intended for
use on straight, dry, open roads with
light traffic. It is not advisable to use the
ICC system in city traffic or congested
areas.
• The ICC system will not adapt automati-
cally to road conditions. This system
should be used in evenly flowing traffic.
Do not use the system on roads with
sharp curves or on icy roads, in heavy rain
or in fog.
• As there is a performance limit to the
distance control function, never rely
solely on the ICC system. This system
does not correct careless, inattentive or
absentminded driving or overcome poor
visibility in rain, fog, or other bad
weather. Decelerate the vehicle speed by
depressing the brake pedal, depending
on the distance to the vehicle ahead and
the surrounding circumstances in order
to maintain a safe distance between
vehicles.
• When the ICC system automatically
brings the car to a stop, your vehicle can
automatically accelerate if the vehicle is
stopped for less than approximately 3
seconds. Be prepared to stop your ve-
hicle if necessary.

Starting and driving5-105

If the driver does not operate the steering
wheel after the warning has been displayed,
an audible alert sounds and the warning
flashes in the vehicle information display, fol-
lowed by a quick brake application to request
the driver to take control of the vehicle again.
If the driver still does not respond, the ProPI-
LOT Assist turns on the hazard flasher and
slows the vehicle to a complete stop.
The driver can cancel the deceleration at any
time by steering, braking, accelerating, or op-
erating the ProPILOT Assist switch.
WARNING
Steering Assist is not a system for hands-
free driving. Always keep your hands on
the steering wheel and drive your vehicle
safely. Failure to do so could cause a colli-
sion resulting in serious personal injury or
death.
NOTE:
If the driver lightly touches (instead of firmly
grips) the steering wheel, the steering
torque sensor may not detect the driver’s
hand(s) on the wheel and a sequence of
warnings may occur. When the driver holds
and operates the steering wheel again, the
warnings turn off.
