PREDICTIVE SPEED ASSIST
HOW DOES PREDICTIVE SPEED
ASSIST WORK
Predictive Speed Assist works with adaptive
cruise control and adjusts the vehicle speed
to the road geometry and to the speed limit
detected by the speed sign recognition
system. As the system identifies curves and
highway exits, the vehicle speed temporarily
decreases ahead of and during the changing
road geometry. When passing new speed
signs, the set speed updates. See Predictive
Speed Assist Precautions (page 271).
There are limitations that affect the accuracy
of the speed sign recognition system and its
ability to determine the current speed limit.
Predictive speed assist and its ability to
determine the current speed limit shares
these limitations. See Speed Sign
Recognition (page 326).
Note: The adaptive cruise control gap setting
operates normally when the feature is
enabled.

PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: You are responsible for
controlling your vehicle at all times. The
system is designed to be an aid and does
not relieve you of your responsibility to
drive with due care and attention. Failure
to follow this instruction could result in the
loss of control of your vehicle, personal
injury or death.
WARNING: Pay close attention to
changing road conditions. You may need
to override the system by pressing the
brake or accelerator pedal if the adjusted
speed becomes higher or lower than
necessary.
WARNING: The system only provides
limited braking. Your vehicle may not
always decelerate quickly enough to avoid
a crash without driver intervention. Apply
the brakes when necessary.
WARNING: The system does not
activate the turn signal.
Adaptive cruise control precautions apply to
predictive speed assist unless stated
otherwise or contradicted by a predictive
speed assist precaution. See Adaptive
Cruise Control Precautions (page 257).
The system only applies limited braking. You
can override the system with the accelerator
pedal or cancel the system by applying the
brakes.
The system may adapt to various factors
such as time of day, lane width. This could
influence speed adjustments and
accelerations.
The system may adapt to various drive
modes. See Drive Mode Control (page 287).
This could influence speed adjustments and
accelerations.
Note: The system does not activate the turn
signal automatically.
