"SPEED ADJUSTED"
Detection of a vehicle that is too close or running at a speed lower than your vehicle's
cruise speed setting.
The system uses engine braking to slow your vehicle (within a limit of 20 mph (30 km/h))
and then hold it at the speed of the vehicle in front so as to observe the programmed inter-
vehicle time.
When automatically slowing down behind a vehicle, your true speed may be higher than
the "adjusted speed" displayed.
"SPEED ADJUSTED"
When the adjusted speed reaches the limit of regulation (speed setting less than 20 mph
(30 km/h)), the adjusted speed flashes together with the speed setting to signal that
automatic deactivation of the system is imminent.
"Cruise control paused"
If the system exceeds the limit of speed adjustment possible by the system and in the
absence of any reaction by the driver (operation of the direction indicator, change of lane,
reduction of the speed of the vehicle), the system is automatically paused.
