STARTING AND DRIVING CAUTION D When a slower vehicle in front of you leaves the lane, the dynamic radar/laser cruise control will no longer detect a vehicle ahead and will attempt to accelerate the vehicle to the faster preset speed. D When the vehicle−to−vehicle distance control is on (on follow−up cruising), your cruising speed is regulated in proportion to the speed of the vehicle ahead, so increasing the preset vehicle speed using the control lever does not accelerate the vehicle. However, if the vehicle ahead leaves the lane, your cruising speed will increase up to the preset speed because the preset speed has been set higher using the control lever. Confirm the setting on the multi−information display. (d) Changing vehicle−to−vehicle distance 31L635 " 1 Long 2 Middle 3 Short You can select one of the following vehicle−to−vehicle distances: "Long", "Middle" or "Short". Each time you push the "DISP2" switch briefly, the setting changes from "Long" to "Middle" to "Short" and then back to "Long". You can confirm the setting on the multi−information display. It should be noted that pushing the "DISP2" switch longer will change to another screen. Your vehicle speed changes in proportion to the speed of the vehicle ahead, maintaining the selected distance. However, if the vehicle speed is slower, the selected distance will be shorter than the designated distance. When the vehicle −to −vehicle distance control mode is activated or the multi−information display indicates "RADAR READY", the vehicle−to−vehicle distance setting can be changed. 347
