Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
WARNING
The Detroit Assurance Collision Mitigation Sys-
tem is intended solely as an aid for an alert and
conscientious professional driver. It is not in-
tended to be relied upon to operate a vehicle.
Use the system in conjunction with rearview mir-
rors and other instruments to safely operate the
vehicle.
The Detroit Assurance Collision Mitigation Sys-
tem is not a substitute for safe, normal driving
procedures, nor will it compensate for any driver
impairment such as drugs, alcohol, or fatigue.
Failure to drive safely and use the system prop-
erly could result in personal injury and/or death
and severe property damage.
Adaptive Cruise Control Safety
Information
Adaptive cruise control (ACC) may not detect ve-
hicles driving in a different lane or narrow vehicles,
like motorcycles, driving in front.
In particular, stay aware in the following situations:
•
when cornering, entering, and exiting bends;
•
when driving winding stretches of road;
•
when overtaking;
•
when there are vehicles driving in a different
lane;
•
when vehicles are changing lanes;
•
when vehicles are exiting the road;
•
when there are obstacles and stationary ve-
hicles.
Adaptive cruise control (ACC) does not compensate
for inattentive driving, weather, or traffic conditions.
The adaptive cruise control is only an aid. The driver
is responsible for maintaining a safe distance from
the vehicle in front, maintaining a safe vehicle speed,
braking, and remaining in a lane.
If adaptive cruise control does not detect a vehicle
driving in front, the system will accelerate to the set
speed.
