OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (ACC) If your vehicle is equipped with adaptive cruise control the controls operate exactly the same as the normal (fixed speed) speed control with one difference. 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.

Distance Setting (ACC Only) The specified following distance for ACC can be set by varying the distance setting between four bars (longest), three bars (long), two bars (medium) and one bar (short). Using this distance setting and the vehicle speed, ACC calculates and sets the distance to the vehicle ahead.

Each time the button is pressed, the distance setting increases by one bar (longer). • To decrease the distance setting, press the Distance Setting-Decrease button and release.
