If there is no vehicle ahead, the vehicle will maintain the
set speed. If a slower moving vehicle is detected in the
same lane, the EVIC displays the “Sensed Vehicle Indi-
cator” icon, and the system adjusts vehicle speed auto-
matically to maintain the distance setting, regardless of
the set speed.

The vehicle will then maintain the set distance until:

• The vehicle ahead accelerates to a speed above the set

speed.

• The vehicle ahead moves out of your lane or view of

the sensor.

• The vehicle ahead slows to a speed below 15 mph

(24 km/h) and the system automatically disengages
itself.

• The distance setting is changed.
• The system disengages. (Refer to the information on

ACC Activation).

The maximum braking applied by ACC is limited; how-
ever, the driver can always apply the brakes manually, if
necessary.

NOTE:

The brake lights will illuminate whenever the

ACC system applies the brakes.

A Proximity Warning will alert the driver if ACC predicts
that its maximum braking level is not sufficient to
maintain the set distance. If this occurs, a visual alert
“BRAKE” will flash in the EVIC and a chime will sound
while ACC continues to apply its maximum braking
capacity. When this occurs, you should immediately
apply the brakes as needed to maintain a safe distance
from the vehicle ahead.
