NOTE:

The Electronic Speed Control system maintains

speed up and down hills. A slight speed change on

moderate hills is normal.
On steep hills, a greater speed loss or gain may occur so

it may be preferable to drive without Electronic Speed

Control.

WARNING!

Electronic Speed Control can be dangerous where the
system cannot maintain a constant speed. Your ve-
hicle could go too fast for the conditions, and you
could lose control and have an accident. Do not use
Electronic Speed Control in heavy traffic or on roads
that are winding, icy, snow-covered or slippery.

ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (ACC) — IF
EQUIPPED

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) increases the driving

convenience provided by cruise control while traveling

on highways and major roadways. However, it is not a

safety system and not designed to prevent collisions.

Electronic Speed Control function performs differently.
Please refer to the proper section within this chapter.

ACC will allow you to keep cruise control engaged in

light to moderate traffic conditions without the constant

need to reset your cruise control. ACC utilizes a radar

sensor and a forward facing camera designed to detect a

vehicle directly ahead of you.
NOTE:

• If the sensor does not detect a vehicle ahead of you,

ACC will maintain a fixed set speed.
