Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC)
The Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC) system can be set to one of two cruise control modes:
- Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode
- The ICC system maintains a selected distance from the vehicle in front of vehicle within the speed range of 30 to 144 km/h (20 to 90 MPH) up to the set speed. The set speed can be selected by the driver between 30 to 144 km/h (20 to 90 MPH). When the vehicle ahead slows to a stop, own vehicle gradually decelerates to a standstill. When the vehicle is stopped, the ICC system maintains braking force to keep vehicle stopped.NOTE: When vehicle is stopped for less than 3 seconds and the vehicle ahead begins to move, own vehicle will start moving again automatically.
- When own vehicle is at a standstill for more than 3 seconds and the vehicle ahead begins to accelerate, push the RES+ switch or lightly depress the accelerator pedal. The ICC system starts to follow the vehicle ahead.
- When no vehicle is detected ahead within the driver selected distance, the vehicle travels at the speed set by the driver. The speed must be above 30 km/h (20 MPH) to use this function.
- The ICC system maintains a selected distance from the vehicle in front of vehicle within the speed range of 30 to 144 km/h (20 to 90 MPH) up to the set speed. The set speed can be selected by the driver between 30 to 144 km/h (20 to 90 MPH). When the vehicle ahead slows to a stop, own vehicle gradually decelerates to a standstill. When the vehicle is stopped, the ICC system maintains braking force to keep vehicle stopped.
- Conventional (fixed speed) cruise control mode
For cruising at a preset speed
NOTE: Steering Assist is not available in the conventional (fixed speed) cruise control mode.
CAUTION:
Never set the cruise speed exceeding the posted speed limit.
WARNING:
Always drive carefully and attentively when using either cruise control mode. To avoid serious injury or death, do not rely on the system to prevent accidents or to control the vehicle's speed in emergency situations. Do not use cruise control except in appropriate rode and traffic conditions.
