This symbol appears on
the Head-Up Display
(HUD) to indicate that
Adaptive Cruise Control
is active. The number
indicates the set speed.

See Head-Up Display (HUD) on page 4‑38 for more
information.

Make sure the set speed is visible on the HUD so you
know the speed your vehicle will accelerate to if a
vehicle is not detected in your path. Keep in mind
speed limits, surrounding traffic speeds, and weather
conditions when adjusting your set speed.

If your vehicle is in Adaptive Cruise Control when the
traction control system begins to limit wheel spin, the
Adaptive Cruise Control will automatically disengage.
