Operation Manual

When driving on some roads, such as winding,
hilly, curved, narrow roads, or roads which are
under construction, the ICC sensor may detect
vehicles in a different lane, or may temporarily
not detect a vehicle traveling ahead. This may
cause the ICC system to decelerate or acceler-
ate the vehicle.
The detection of vehicles may also be affected
by vehicle operation (steering maneuver or trav-
eling position in the lane, etc.) or vehicle con-
dition. If this occurs, the ICC system may warn
you by blinking the system indicator and sound-
ing the chime unexpectedly. You will have to
manually control the proper distance away from
the vehicle traveling ahead.
When driving on the freeway at a set speed and
approaching a slower traveling vehicle ahead,
the ICC will adjust the speed to maintain the
distance, selected by the driver, from the ve-
hicle ahead. If the vehicle ahead changes lanes
or exits the freeway, the ICC system will accel-
erate and maintain the speed up to the set
speed. Pay attention to the driving operation to
maintain control of the vehicle as it accelerates
to the set speed.
The vehicle may not maintain the set speed on
winding or hilly roads. If this occurs, you will
have to manually control the vehicle speed.
Intelligent cruise control switch
The system is operated by a MAIN switch and
four control switches, all mounted on the steer-
ing wheel.
1. RESUME/ACCELERATE switch:
Resumes set speed or increases speed
incrementally.
2. SET/COAST switch:
Sets desired cruise speed, reduces
speed incrementally.
3. CANCEL switch:
Deactivates the system without erasing
the set speed.
