You can select one of the following vehicle−to−vehicle
distances.
1. LONG
2. MIDDLE
3. SHORT
Each time you pull the distance switch briefly toward you, the
setting changes from LONG to MIDDLE to SHORT and then
back to LONG. You can confirm the setting on the display.
Your vehicle speed changes in proportion to the speed of the
vehicle ahead, maintaining the selected distance. However, if
the vehicle ahead is slower, the selected distance will be
shorter than the designated distance.
When the vehicle−to−vehicle distance control mode is
activated or the “READY” indicator comes on, the
vehicle−to−vehicle distance setting can be changed.
The vehicle−to−vehicle distance is always set to LONG when
the ignition switch is turned on.
Select the vehicle−to−vehicle distance considering traffic
conditions. The approximate vehicle−to−vehicle distance
based on time interval when driving at 88 km/h (55 mph) is
shown below:
LONG about 75 m (245 ft.). . . . . . . . .
MIDDLE about 50 m (165 ft.). . . . . . .
SHORT about 30 m (100 ft.). . . . . . .
If the vehicle speed is slower than 88 km/h (55 mph), the
distance will be shorter than the above.
During long downhill driving, the vehicle−to−vehicle distance
will be shorter than the selected distance.
