E145632

A message appears if something obstructs

the sensor's radar signals. The sensor is

located behind a cover near the driver side

of the lower grille. The system cannot

detect a vehicle ahead and does not

function when something obstructs the

radar signal. The following table lists

possible causes and actions for this

message displaying.

Action

Cause

Clean the grille surface in front of the radar

or remove the object causing the obstruc-

tion.

The surface of the radar in the grille is dirty

or obstructed in some way.

Wait a short time. It may take several

minutes for the radar to detect that it is free

from obstruction.

The surface of the radar in the grille is clean

but the message remains in the display.

Do not use the system in these conditions

because it may not detect any vehicles

ahead.

Heavy rain or snow is interfering with the

radar signals.

Do not use the system in these conditions

because it may not detect any vehicles

ahead.

Swirling water, or snow or ice on the surface

of the road may interfere with the radar

signals.

Wait a short time or switch to normal cruise

control.

You are in a desert or remote area with no

other vehicles and no roadside objects.

Due to the nature of radar technology, it is

possible to get a blockage warning with no

actual block. This happens, for example,

when driving in sparse rural or desert

environments. A false blocked condition

either self clears or clears after a you

restart your vehicle.

Switching to Normal Cruise

Control

WARNING

Normal cruise control does not brake

for slower vehicles. Always be aware

of which mode you have selected

and apply the brakes when necessary.

You can manually change from adaptive

cruise control to normal cruise control

through the information display.

E71340

The cruise control indicator light

replaces the adaptive cruise

control indicator light if you

select normal cruise control. The gap

setting does not display, the system does

not automatically respond to lead vehicles

and automatic braking does not activate.
