O P E R AT I N G Y O U R V E H I C L E ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (ACC) If your vehicle is equipped with adaptive cruise control the controls operate exactly the same as the electronic speed control with only a couple of differences. With this option you can set a specified distance you would like to maintain between you and the vehicle in front of you. If the ACC sensor detects a vehicle ahead, ACC will apply limited braking or acceleration automatically to maintain a preset following distance, while matching the speed of the vehicle ahead. If the sensor does not detect a vehicle ahead of you, ACC will maintain a fixed set speed. Adaptive Cruise Switches ACC ON/OFF • Push and release the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) ON/OFF button. 1 - Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) On/Off 2 - Distance Setting - Decrease 3 - Distance Setting - Increase ACC READY will appear in the Driver Information Display (DID) to indicate the ACC is on. • Push and release the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) ON/OFF button a second time to turn the system off. Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) Off will appear in the Driver Information Display (DID) to indicate the ACC is off. To Vary The Speed Setting To Increase Speed While ACC is set, you can increase the set speed by pressing the SET + button. The drivers preferred units can be selected through the instrument panel settings if equipped. Refer to " Understanding Your Instrument Panel" in the Owner's Manual on the DVD for more information. The speed increment shown is dependant on the speed of U.S. (mph) or Metric (km/h) units: U.S. Speed (mph) • Pressing the SET + button once will result in a 1 mph increase in set speed. Each subsequent tap of the button results in an increase of 1 mph. • If the button is continually pressed, the set speed will continue to increase in 5 mph increments until the button is released. The increase in set speed is reflected in the DID. 43
