Although the brake operation is controlled by the system, the system does not automatically stop the vehicle. If the vehicle speed falls below approximately 20 MPH (32 km/h), the Intelligent Cruise Control system is automatically canceled and a warning chime sounds. (The brake control is also canceled.) The system may not detect the vehicle in front of you in certain road or weather conditions. To avoid accidents, never use the Intelligent Cruise Control system under the following conditions: − On roads where the traffic is heavy or there are sharp curves − On slippery road surfaces such as on ice or snow, etc. − During bad weather (rain, fog, snow, etc.) When the windshield wiper is operated at the low speed (LO) or high speed (HI) position, the Intelligent Cruise Control system is automatically canceled. − When strong light (for example, at sunrise or sunset) is directly shining on the front of the vehicle − When rain, snow or dirt adhere to the system sensor − On steep downhill roads (the vehicle may go beyond the set vehicle speed and frequent braking may result in overheating the brakes) − On repeated uphill and downhill roads − When traffic conditions make it difficult to keep a proper distance between vehicles because of frequent acceleration or deceleration Do not use the Intelligent Cruise Control system if you are towing a trailer. The system may not detect a vehicle ahead. In some road or traffic conditions, a vehicle or object can unexpectedly come into the sensor detection zone and cause automatic braking. You may need to control the distance from other vehicles using the accelerator pedal. Al- ways stay alert and avoid using the ICC system when it is not recommended in this section. 5-24 Starting and driving
