Adaptive Cruise Control
■ Increasing the set vehicle target speed
●Using the RES/SET switch
Push the RES/SET switch in the following
(2)
way while you are driving with Adaptive
Cruise Control on:
(1)
Push the RES/+ switch towards the position
(1) briefly: the set vehicle speed will
increase in increments of 1 MPH (1 km/h)
every time the button is pushed.
Push the RES/+ switch towards the position
(1) for longer: the set vehicle speed will
increase in increments of 1 MPH (1 km/h)
S01115
while the button is being pushed.
Push the RES/+ switch towards the position
(2) briefly: the set vehicle speed will increase in increments of 5 MPH (5 km/h) every time
the button is pushed.
Push the RES/+ switch towards the position (2) for longer: the set vehicle speed will
increase in increments of 5 MPH (5 km/h) while the button is being pushed.
The set vehicle target speed is shown on the EyeSight display. Using this method, you can
‘fine tune’ the vehicle’s set target speed.
●Using the accelerator pedal
Depressing the accelerator pedal will increase vehicle speed. Once the preferred speed has
been attained, push the RES/SET switch to SET/-. When the switch is pressed, the new
vehicle target speed will be set. The new set vehicle speed will be displayed in the EyeSight
display area.
CAUTION
When Adaptive Cruise Control is operating, the actual vehicle speed is
controlled according to the lead vehicle. Therefore, if the RES/SET switch
is pressed to the “RES/+” and set to a speed higher than the speed of the
lead vehicle, the vehicle will not accelerate - it will maintain a safe following
distance as the first priority. However, because doing so changed the set
vehicle target speed, when the lead vehicle is no longer detected (for
example, if you change to a freeway lane with no vehicles in front), the
vehicle will accelerate to that new set target speed. Change the set vehicle
target speed while briefly checking the value shown in the set speed display on the EyeSight display.
When the accelerator pedal is depressed with Adaptive Cruise Control on,
automatic braking control and warnings by Adaptive Cruise Control will not
occur. However, if there is a high risk of collision with
