Driving your vehicle
505
SMART CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM (SCC) (IF EQUIPPED)
➀ Cruise indicator
➁ Set speed
➂ Vehicle-to-vehicle distance
The SCC allows you to program the
vehicle to maintain a set speed so
long as it is not limited by traffic.
When traffic is encountered the vehi-
cle will slow down to maintain a set
distance behind traffic without
depressing the accelerator or brake
pedal.
WARNING - Smart Cruise
Control Inadvertent
Activation
If the smart cruise control is left
on (CRUISE indicator light in
the instrument cluster illuminat-
ed), it can be activated inadver-
tently. Keep the smart cruise
control system off (CRUISE
indicator light OFF) when the
smart cruise control is not in
use to avoid setting a speed
which the driver is not aware of.
WARNING - Smart Cruise
Control Limitations
• The smart cruise control is a
supplemental system and is
not a substitute for safe driv-
ing practices. It is the respon-
sibility of the driver to always
check the speed and distance
to the vehicle ahead.
• Do not use the smart cruise
control when it may not be
safe to keep the car at a con-
stant speed, for instance, driv-
ing in heavy or varying traffic,
or on slippery (rainy, icy or
snow-covered) or winding
roads or over 6% up-hill or
down-hill roads.
• The smart cruise control sys-
tem cannot recognize a
stopped vehicle, pedestrians or
an oncoming vehicle. Always
look ahead cautiously to pre-
vent unexpected and sudden
situations from occurring.
• Use the smart cruise control
system only when traveling
on open highways in good
weather conditions.
