n Radar sensor and grille cover
Always keep the sensor and grille cover clean to ensure that the vehicle-to-vehicle
distance control operates properly. (Some obstructions, such as snow, ice and plas-
tic objects, cannot be detected by the obstruction sensor.)
Dynamic radar cruise control is canceled if an obstruction is detected.

Warning lights and messages are used to indicate a system malfunction or to inform
the driver of the need for caution while driving. (→P. 551)

occur:
l When the speed of the vehicle ahead matches or exceeds your vehicle speed
l When the vehicle ahead is traveling at an extremely slow speed
