Cruise Control

SettingtheAdaptiveCruiseSpeed Note: When adaptive cruise control is active, the speedometer may vary slightly from the set speed displayed in the information display. 1. Drive to desired speed. 2. Press SET+ or SET- . 3. A green indicator light, the current gap setting and your set speed appear in the information display. 4. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal.

Note: When you are following a vehicle and you switch on a direction indicator, adaptive cruise control may provide a small temporary acceleration to help you pass. Note: The brakes may emit noise when applied by the system. When a vehicle ahead of you enters the same lane or a slower vehicle is ahead in the same lane, the vehicle speed adjusts to maintain a preset gap distance. A vehicle graphic illuminates in the instrument cluster. Your vehicle maintains a consistent gap from the vehicle ahead until: • The vehicle in front of you accelerates to a speed above the set speed. • The vehicle in front of you moves out of the lane you are in. • Your vehicle speed falls below 12 mph (20 km/h). • You set a new gap distance. The systemapplies the brakes to slowyour vehicle to maintain a safe gap distance from the vehicle in front. The system only applies limited braking. You can override the system by applying the brakes. If the systemdetermines that itsmaximum braking level is not sufficient, an audible warning sounds when the system continues to brake. A red warning bar displays on the windshield and you must take immediate action. Setting the Gap Distance Note: The gap setting is time dependent and therefore the distance adjustswith your vehicle speed. Note: It is your responsibility to select a gap appropriate to the driving conditions. You can decrease or increase the distance between your vehicle and the vehicle in front by pressing the gap control.

Following a Vehicle WARNINGS When following a vehicle, your vehicle does not decelerate automatically to a stop, nor does your vehicle always decelerate quickly enough to avoid a crash without driver intervention. Always apply thebrakeswhen necessary. Failing to do so may result in a crash, serious injury or death. Adaptive cruise control only warns of vehicles detected by the radar sensor. In some cases there may be no warning or a delayed warning. You should always apply the brakes when necessary. Failure to do so may result in a crash, serious injury or death.
