OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE ACC Cruise ON/OFF/MODE • Push the ON/OFF/MODE button to activate the ACC speed control. • ACC READY will appear in the EVIC display to indicate the ACC speed control is on. • Push the ON/OFF/MODE button a second time to turn the system off. WARNING! Leaving the Electronic Speed Control system on when not in use is dangerous. You could accidentally set the system or cause it to go faster than you want. You could lose control and have an accident. Always leave the Electronic Speed Control system off when you are not using it. Set • With ACC speed control on, push down and release the lever to set a desired speed. WARNING! Electronic Speed Control can be dangerous where the system cannot maintain a constant speed. Your vehicle could go too fast for the conditions, and you could lose control. An accident could be the result. Do not use Electronic Speed Control in heavy traffic or on roads that are winding, icy, snow-covered or slippery. Accel/Decel • Push and hold the lever up to accelerate or down to decelerate the vehicle, release the lever to save the new set speed. • Once a speed is set, tapping the lever up or down will increase or decrease the set speed approximately 1 mph (2 km/h). Cancel • Pull the lever toward you or apply the brakes to cancel the set speed and maintain the set speed in memory. Resume • To resume a previously selected speed in memory, push the lever up and release. The EVIC will display the last set speed. Setting The Following Distance • With ACC speed control on, push the lever away from you and release to set the desired distance. Each time the lever is pushed, the distance setting adjusts between long, medium and short. Changing To Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control • In addition to adaptive mode, ACC has a normal (fixed speed) cruise control mode for cruising at fixed speeds. • Press and hold the "ON/OFF/MODE" button for at least one second to activate the normal speed control. "Normal Cruise Ready" will be displayed in the EVIC. 26
