STARTING AND DRIVING
424
CAUTION
To avoid accidentally engaging the cruise control, keep
the “ON−OFF” button off when not using the dynamic
laser cruise control.
(c) Setting the desired speed
The transmission must be in “D” before you set the cruise
control speed.
Bring your vehicle to the desired speed, push the lever down
in the “− SET” direction and release it. This sets the vehicle at
that speed. At this time, the display indicates settings such as
the preset vehicle speed, whether a vehicle is present ahead
and selected vehicle−to−vehicle distance. If there is no vehicle
detected ahead, the display does not indicate the vehicle
ahead. You can now take your foot off the accelerator pedal.
If you need to accelerate — for example, when passing —
depress the accelerator pedal enough for the vehicle to exceed
the preset speed. When you release the accelerator pedal, the
vehicle will return to the control prior to acceleration.
You cannot set a desired speed if the master warning light
comes on, the alarm sounds and the display indicates one of
the warning codes “E1”, “E2” or “E3”. If any of the above codes
appears on the display, see “(l) Vehicle−to−vehicle distance
control mode failure warning” on page 430.
