Following a Vehicle
WARNINGS
When following a vehicle in front of
you, your vehicle will not decelerate
automatically to a stop, nor will your
vehicle always decelerate quickly enough
to avoid a crash without driver intervention.
Always apply the brakes when necessary.
Failing to do so may result in a crash,
serious injury or death.
Adaptive cruise control only warns
of vehicles detected by the radar
sensor. In some cases there may be
no warning or a delayed warning. You
should always apply the brakes when
necessary. Failing to do so may result in a
crash, serious injury or death.
Note: The brakes may emit a sound when
modulated by the adaptive cruise control
system.
When a vehicle ahead of you enters the
same lane or a slower vehicle is ahead in
the same lane, the vehicle speed adjusts
to maintain a preset gap distance. The
distance setting is adjustable.
The lead vehicle graphic will illuminate.
To help you pass a vehicle in front of you,
the adaptive cruise control system may
provide a small temporary acceleration
when you switch on your left turn signal
while following a lead car.
Your vehicle maintains a consistent gap
from the vehicle ahead until:
• the vehicle in front of you accelerates
to a speed above the set speed
• the vehicle in front of you moves out of
your lane or out of view
• the vehicle speed falls below 16 mph
(26 km/h)
• a new gap distance is set.
