Adaptive Cruise Control
Continued from previous page
• When you do not want to use Adaptive Cruise Control, be sure to turn the
(CRUISE) switch off. If the switch is left on, cruise control may be
accidentally engaged, possibly resulting in an accident.
• Before using Adaptive Cruise Control, be sure to fully verify the safety of
the vehicle occupants and the area around the vehicle. Never operate the
cruise control from outside the vehicle.
Detection of the vehicle in front by the EyeSight stereo camera*
• Under the following road conditions or conditions of your vehicle, detection
of the vehicle in front may not be possible. Vehicles in neighboring traffic
lanes or roadside objects may also be incorrectly detected. Under condi-
tions such as these, do not use Adaptive Cruise Control. If cruise control is
currently in use, operate the brake pedal and take other action as neces-
sary.
- When following begins
from a short following dis-
tance, such as when the
vehicle in front is a vehicle
that cut into your lane
S01975
- When driving on curved
roads, at the start and end
of a curve and on roads
with continuous curves
(These conditions make it
difficult for the system to
detect vehicles because
they are outside the
detectable area.)
- When driving on an on-
ramp or off-ramp to a free-
S01976
way, highway, or other
restricted access road (EyeSight Adaptive Cruise Control is not designed
for use in this kind of driving environment.)
- When driving in an urban, or suburban environment (Adaptive Cruise
Control is not appropriate for use in these driving areas. Use the Adap-
tive Cruise Control only on limited-access highways.)
