vehicle is detected ahead of you, your vehicle cruising
speed decreases within the range of about 40 km/h (25

the vehicle ahead because of insufficient automatic

vehicle cruising speed changes in proportion to the speed
of the vehicle ahead to maintain an appropriate distance
from your vehicle to the vehicle ahead. The
vehicle−to−vehicle distance can be changed. For details,
see “(h) Changing vehicle−to−vehicle distance” on page
