UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 223 WARNING! • Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a convenience system. It is not a substitute for active driving involvement. It is always the driver's responsibility to be attentive of road, traffic, and weather conditions, vehicle speed, distance to the vehicle ahead; and, most importantly, brake operation to ensure safe operation of the vehicle under all road conditions. Your complete attention is always required while driving to maintain safe control of your vehicle. Failure to follow these warnings can result in a collision and death or serious personal injury. • The ACC system: - Does not react to pedestrians, oncoming vehicles, and stationary objects (e.g., a stopped vehicle in a traffic jam or a disabled vehicle). (Continued) WARNING! (Continued) - Cannot take street, traffic, and weather conditions into account, and may be limited upon adverse sight distance conditions. - Does not predict the lane curvature or the movement of preceding vehicles and will not compensate for such changes. - Does not always fully recognize complex driving conditions, which can result in wrong or missing distance warnings. - Can only apply a maximum of 25% of the vehicle's braking capability, and will not bring the vehicle to a complete stop. 3
