WARNING! (Continued)

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).

When entering a turn lane or highway off ramp;

when driving on roads that are winding, icy, snow-
covered, slippery, or have steep uphill or downhill
slopes.

When towing a trailer up or down steep slopes.

When circumstances do not allow safe driving at a

constant speed.

The Cruise Control system has two control modes:

• Adaptive Cruise Control mode for maintaining an

appropriate distance between vehicles.

• Normal (fixed speed) electronic speed control mode

for cruising at a constant preset speed. For additional
information, refer to “Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise
Control Mode” in this section.

NOTE:

Normal (fixed speed) electronic speed control

will not react to preceding vehicles. Always be aware of
the mode selected.

You can change the mode by using the Cruise Control
buttons. The two control modes function differently.
Always confirm which mode is selected.
