INTELLIGENT CRUISE CONTROL
(ICC) (for vehicles with ProPILOT
Assist)
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the ICC sys-
tem could result in serious injury or
death. •
The ICC system is only an aid to assist
the driver and is not a collision
warning or avoidance device. It is rec-
ommended for highway use only and
it is not intended for city driving. It is
the driver’s responsibility to stay
alert, drive safely, and be in control of
the vehicle at all times.
• There are limitations to the ICC sys-
tem capability. The ICC system does
not function in all driving, traffic,
weather, and road conditions. 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.
• Always observe posted speed limits
and do not set the speed over them.
• The ICC system does not react to sta-
tionary and slow moving vehicles.
Starting and driving5-103

The system will not activate if a speed limit
change is not detected.
When Auto mode is selected on the set-
tings menu:
• The indicated speed limit is applied to thevehicle set speed automatically when on
a limited access freeway as identified in
the navigation map data. Also, if the Pro-
PILOT Assist with Navi-link system is on,
but not set (active), and a new speed limit
is detected, the vehicle set speed is auto-
matically updated.
• The Auto mode may not be available in some regions or on roads other than lim-
ited access freeways. In this case, the sys-
tem operates as the Manual mode.
NOTE:
Auto mode will not function in Hawaii or
US island territories.
How to activate or deactivate the
system:
1. Press thebutton on the steering
wheel until “Settings” appears in the ve-
hicle information display, and press the
OK button
2. Use the scroll dial to select “Driver Assis- tance” and then press the OK button. 3. Select “Spd. Limit Assist”, and press the
OK button to select “Auto” or “Manual” to
enable (not activate) the system. To de-
activate the system, select “OFF”.
NOTE:
The system will retain current settings in
the vehicle information display even if
the engine is restarted.
Speed Adjust by Rout e-afeature
of ProPILOT Assist with Navi-link (if
so equipped)
When the ProPILOT Assist with Navi-link is
active on a limited access freeway (as iden-
tified in the navigation map data), the
Speed Adjust by Route uses road informa-
tion provided by the navigation system
and can adjust the vehicle speed depend-
ing on curves, junctions or exits and the
driver may need to apply additional brak-
ing at any time.
When the vehicle is through the curve or
junction, the vehicle will accelerate again to
the set speed. When exiting the limited ac-
cess freeway, the driver will need to apply
braking at the end of the exit.
NOTE:
• The system does not operate when the
accelerator pedal is depressed.
• The system may not operate depend-
ing on the set distance to the vehicle
ahead and vehicles detected ahead.
