Driving and Operating Alerting the Driver Approaching and Following a Vehicle 9-39 lights will come on. The automatic braking may feel or sound different than if the brakes were applied manually. This is normal. Stationary or Very Slow-Moving Objects { Warning The vehicle ahead symbol is in the instrument cluster. The vehicle ahead symbol only displays when a vehicle is detected in your vehicle's path moving in the same direction. If this symbol is not displaying, ACC will not respond to or brake to vehicles ahead. ACC automatically slows the vehicle down and adjusts vehicle speed to follow the vehicle in front at the selected follow gap. The vehicle speed increases or decreases to follow the vehicle in front of you, but will not exceed the set speed. It may apply limited braking, if necessary. When braking is active, the brake Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) may not detect and react to stopped or slow-moving vehicles ahead of you. For example, the system may not brake for a vehicle it has never detected moving. This can occur in stop-and-go traffic or when a vehicle suddenly appears due to a vehicle ahead changing lanes. Your vehicle may not stop and could cause a crash. Use caution when using ACC. Your complete attention is always required while driving and you should be ready to take action and apply the brakes. If ACC is engaged, driver action may be required when ACC cannot apply sufficient braking because of approaching a vehicle too rapidly. When this condition occurs, six red lights will flash on the windshield and either eight beeps will sound from the front, or both sides of the Safety Alert Seat will pulse five times.
