Vehicle−to−vehicle distance control mode
Conventional (fixed speed) cruise control
mode
The dynamic laser cruise control func-
tion has two cruise control modes.
Vehicle−to−vehicle distance control
mode for maintaining an appropriate
distance between vehicles
Conventional (fixed speed) cruise con-
trol mode for cruising at preset speeds
You can change the mode by using the
control lever.
The two cruise control modes function dif-
ferently. If you use dynamic laser cruise
control, always confirm which mode is se-
lected.
For the vehicle−to−vehicle distance control
mode, see “—Vehicle−to−vehicle distance
control mode” on page 180. For the con-
ventional (fixed speed) cruise control
mode, see “—Conventional (fixed speed)
cruise control mode” on page 191.
The laser radar sensor in this system
primarily detects the reflectors of the
vehicle ahead of you to determine the
presence of the vehicle ahead as well
as measuring the vehicle−to−vehicle dis-
tance. The detection range of the sen-
sor is about 120 m (400 ft.) ahead.
CAUTION
Dynamic laser cruise control is not a
collision−avoidance system and will
not prevent accidents. Dynamic laser
cruise control is a vehicle speed con-
trol device that is intended for use
only on freeways or roads where the
traffic is light or moderate. To avoid
serious injury, you must use caution
and be attentive to road and traffic
conditions while using dynamic laser
cruise control.
