WARNING

.As there is a performance limit to the distance control function, never rely solely on the Intelligent Cruise Control system. This system does not correct careless, inattentive or absent-minded driving, or overcome poor visibility in rain, fog, or other bad weather. Decele- rate the vehicle speed by depressing the brake pedal, depending on the distance to the vehicle ahead and the surround- ing circumstances in order to maintain a safe distance between vehicles.

.If the vehicle ahead comes to a stop, the vehicle decelerates to a standstill within the limitations of the system. The system will cancel once it judges that the vehicle has come to a standstill and sound a warning chime. To prevent the vehicle from moving, the driver must depress the brake pedal.

.The system may not detect the vehicle in front of you in certain road or weather conditions. To avoid accidents, never use the Intelligent Cruise Control sys- tem under the following conditions:

5-30Starting and driving

—On roads where the traffic is heavy or there are sharp curves

—On slippery road surfaces such as on ice or snow, etc.

—During bad weather (rain, fog, snow, etc.)

When the windshield wiper is oper- ated at the low speed (LO) or high speed (HI) position, the Intelligent Cruise Control system is automati- cally canceled.

—When strong light (for example, at sunrise or sunset) is directly shining on the front of the vehicle

—When rain, snow or dirt adhere to the system sensor

—On steep downhill roads (the vehicle may go beyond the set vehicle speed and frequent braking may result in overheating the brakes)

—On repeated uphill and downhill roads

—When traffic conditions make it diffi- cult to keep a proper distance be- tween vehicles because of frequent acceleration or deceleration

.Do not use the Intelligent Cruise Control system if you are towing a trailer. The

system may not detect a vehicle ahead.

.In some road or traffic conditions, a vehicle or object can unexpectedly come into the sensor detection zone and cause automatic braking. You may need to control the distance from other vehicles using the accelerator pedal. Always stay alert and avoid using the ICC system when it is not recommended in this section.
