The set speed is selected by the driver. This is the speed you will travel if there is no vehicle detected in your path. To set Adaptive Cruise Control, do the following: 1. Make sure the Head-Up Display (HUD) is on and properly adjusted. You cannot engage Adaptive Cruise Control unless the HUD is on. See Head-Up Display (HUD) on page 3-31 for more information. 2. Move the switch to the on position. 3. Get up to the desired speed. 4. Press T at the end of the lever and release the button. 5. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal. Once Adaptive Cruise Control is set, it might immediately apply the brakes if it detects a vehicle ahead that is too close or moving slower than your vehicle. This symbol appears on the Head-Up Display (HUD) to indicate that Adaptive Cruise Control is active. See Head-Up Display (HUD) on page 3-31 for more information. Make sure the set speed is visible on the HUD so you know the speed your vehicle will accelerate to if a vehicle is not detected in your path. Keep in mind speed limits, surrounding traffic speeds, and weather conditions when adjusting your set speed. If the vehicle is in Adaptive Cruise Control when the traction control system begins to limit wheel spin, the Adaptive Cruise Control automatically disengages. See Traction Control System (TCS) on page 5-8 and StabiliTrak® System on page 5-6. When road conditions allow you to safely use it again, the Adaptive Cruise Control can be turned back on. 3-17
