■ Incorrect use of cruise control system may cause car accident.
■ Cruise control system is only for smooth traffic (like expressway) in good
weather.
Adaptive cruise control system*
■ The adaptive cruise control (ACC) system is designed on the basis of
traditional cruise control to actively control the vehicle speed with radar
detecting the relative distance and relative speed with a vehicle ahead so
as to achieve the purpose of automatically follow a vehicle ahead in
cruising. ACC can automatically switch between fixed speed cruise and
follow-up cruise depending on whether there is a vehicle ahead.
■ You may use the cruise control buttons to set the cruise speed and
headway of the vehicle from a vehicle ahead. You may use the cruise
control lever to set the speed of the vehicle in the range of 30~150km/h
(20-95mph) and the headway of the vehicle from a vehicle ahead to follow
such vehicle at a speed in the range of 0~150km/h (0-95mph).
■ ACC OFF:
● At this time, the system is turned off. If it is necessary to use the
system functions, turn on the ACC system first.
■ ACC standby:
● The system is in standby state after being started. The driver can
actively operate it to enter the activating state. However, it may not
enter the activating state if some conditions are not met; in this case,
you need to check the vehicle to make the vehicle meet the conditions.
The indicator will appear on the instrument.
■ ACC activated:
● In this state, the ACC system is in normal working state and enables
the vehicle to cruise at the set cruise speed or stably follow a vehicle
ahead by automatically adjusting the distance with such target vehicle.
The indicator will appear on the instrument.
■ Overtaking acceleration:
● With ACC activated, if you depress the accelerator pedal, the vehicle
will respond to your acceleration operation and the ACC will be
suspended temporarily until you release the accelerator pedal.
