Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control
Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control is a driving support system that is intended to assist drivers
when driving on an expressway (including during congestion and when driving at high
speed). The Adaptive Cruise Control (� page 42) and Lane Centering Function (� page
66), which operates linked with the Adaptive Cruise Control, are used to assist with driving
by automatically controlling the accelerator, brake, and steering.
Adaptive Cruise Control
Adaptive Cruise Control is a driving support system intended to allow more comfortable
driving on expressways, freeways and interstate highways. The stereo camera detects vehicles
in front that are driving in the same traffic lane, and your vehicle follows the vehicle in
front (up to the maximum speed of the set vehicle speed). While following, your vehicle will
automatically maintain a following distance that corresponds to the speed of the vehicle in
front. The vehicle is capable of being controlled at a speed between 0 mph (0 km/h) and
approximately 90 mph (145 km/h). Please remember that you should not exceed posted
speed limits.
WARNING
• This system does not provide the driver with an automatic driving function that
handles all traffic conditions.
• Do not rely excessively on Adaptive Cruise Control. This system is not
intended to assist in driving when the driver is not paying full attention to what
is ahead of him/her due to distractions or a lack of concentration while driving,
or under conditions of poor visibility. It is not intended to prevent rear-end collisions.
Strive for safe driving at all times. Always maintain a safe following distance
behind the vehicle in front of you, pay attention to your surroundings and the
driving conditions, and operate the brake pedal and take other actions as necessary.
• When using Adaptive Cruise Control, always set the speed according to the
speed limit, traffic flow, road conditions, and other conditions.
• Before using the system, perform a daily inspection and verify that there are
no malfunctions of the tires or brakes.
