180 STARTING AND OPERATING
To Set A Desired Speed
When the vehicle reaches the speed desired,
push the SET (+) button or the SET (-) button
and release. The instrument cluster display will
show the set speed.
NOTE:
Fixed Speed Cruise Control can be used without
an
ACC distance set. To change between the
different modes, push the ACC on/off button
which turns the ACC and the Fixed Speed Cruise
Control off. Pushing the Fixed Speed Cruise
Control on/off button will result in turning on
(changing to) Fixed Speed Cruise Control mode.
If ACC is set when the vehicle speed is be
low
20 mph (32 km/h), the set speed will default to
20
mph (32 km/h).
NOTE:
Fixed Speed Cruise Control cannot be set below
2
0
mph (32 km/h).
If either system is set when the vehicle speed is
ab
ove 20 mph (32 km/h), the set speed shall
be
the current speed of the vehicle.
NOTE:
Keeping your foot on the accelerator pedal
can cause the vehicle to continue to accel-
erate beyond the set speed. If this occurs, the
me
ssage “DRIVER OVERRIDE” will display in
the instrument cluster display.
If you continue to accelerate beyond the set
speed while an ACC distance is also set, the
system will not be controlling the distance
between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead.
The vehicle speed will only be determined by
the position of the accelerator pedal.
To Cancel
The following conditions cancel the ACC or Fixed
Speed Cruise Control systems:
The brake pedal is applied
The CANC (cancel) button is pushed
The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) activates
The gear selector is removed from the DRIVE
position
The braking temperature exceeds normal
range (overheated)
WARNING!
Leaving the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
system on when not in use is dangerous. You
could accidentally set the system or cause it
to go faster than you want. You could lose
control and have a collision. Always leave the
system off when you are not using it.
WARNING!
In Fixed Speed Cruise Control mode (no ACC
distance set), the system will not react to
vehicles ahead. In addition, the proximity
warning does not activate and no alarm will
sound even if you are too close to the vehicle
ahead since neither the presence of the vehi
-
cle ahead nor the vehicle-to-vehicle distance
i
s
detected. Be sure to maintain a safe dis-
tance between your vehicle and the vehicle
a
h
ead. Always be aware which mode is
selected.
