4-5. Using the driving support systems
This mode employs a radar to detect the presence of vehicles up to approximately
100 m (328 ft.) ahead, determines the current vehicle-to-vehicle following dis-
tance, and operates to maintain a suitable following distance from the vehicle
ahead. The desired vehicle-to-vehicle distance can also be set by operating the
vehicle-to-vehicle distance switch.
When driving on downhill slopes, the vehicle-to-vehicle distance may become shorter.
