WARNING!

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a convenience

system. It is not a substitute for active driving
involvement. It is always the driver’s responsibil-
ity to be attentive of road, traffic, and weather
conditions, vehicle speed, distance to the vehicle
ahead; and, most importantly, brake operation to
ensure safe operation of the vehicle under all road
conditions. Your complete attention is always re-
quired while driving to maintain safe control of
your vehicle. Failure to follow these warnings can
result in a collision and death or serious personal
injury.

The ACC system:

Does not react to pedestrians, oncoming vehicles,

and stationary objects (e.g., a stopped vehicle in a
traffic jam or a disabled vehicle).

WARNING! (Continued)

Cannot take street, traffic, and weather condi-

tions into account, and may be limited upon
adverse sight distance conditions.

Does not always fully recognize complex driving

conditions, which can result in wrong or missing
distance warnings.

Can only apply a maximum of 40% of the vehi-

cle’s braking capability, and will not bring the
vehicle to a complete stop.

You should switch off the ACC system:
When driving in fog, heavy rain, heavy snow, sleet,

heavy traffic, and complex driving situations (i.e.,
in highway construction zones).
