To increase cruise control set

speed:

Follow either of these procedures:

• Move the lever up (to RES+) and hold

it. Your vehicle will accelerate. Re‐

lease the lever at the speed you

want.

• Move the lever up (to RES+) and re‐

lease it immediately. The cruising

speed will increase by 2.0 km/h or

1 mph each time you move the lever

up (to RES+) in this manner.

To decrease the cruising speed:

Follow either of these procedures:

• Move the lever down (to SET-) and

hold it. Your vehicle will gradually

slow down. Release the lever at the

speed you want to maintain.

• Move the lever down (to SET-) and

release it immediately. The cruising

speed will decrease by 2.0 km/h or

1 mph each time you move the lever

down (to SET-) in this manner.

To temporarily accelerate with

the cruise control on:

If you want to speed up temporarily

when the cruise control is on, depress

the accelerator pedal. Increased speed

will not interfere with cruise control op‐

eration or change the set speed.

To return to the set speed, take your

foot off the accelerator pedal.

If you move the lever down (to SET-) at

the increased speed, the cruising speed

will be set again.

To cancel cruise control, do one

of the following:

• Depress the brake pedal.

than approximately 200 km/h .

• The ESC is operating.
• Downshifting to the 2

nd

gear in man‐

ual mode.

• Operating the EPB switch. Do not op‐

erate the parking brake while driving

except in an emergency situation.

Each of these actions will cancel cruise

control operation (the set speed in the

instrument cluster will go off), but it

will not turn the system off. If you wish

to resume cruise control operation,

move up the lever (to RES+) located on

your steering wheel. You will return to

your previously preset speed.

To resume cruising speed at

more than approximately

30 km/h(20 mph):

If any method other than the CRUISE

lever was used to cancel cruising speed

and the system is still activated, the

most recent set speed will automatical‐

ly resume when you move the lever up

(to RES+).

It will not resume, however, if the vehi‐

cle speed has dropped below approxi‐

mately 30 km/h (20 mph).

NOTICE

Always check the road conditions

when you move the lever up (to RES

+) to resume the speed.

To turn cruise control off, do

one of the following:

• Move the lever up (to CRUISE). (the

Limitations of the system

The smart cruise control system may

have limits to its ability to detect dis‐

tance to the vehicle ahead due to road

and traffic conditions.

On curves

• On curves, the smart cruise control

system may not detect a moving ve‐

hicle in your lane, and then your vehi‐

cle could accelerate to the set speed.

Also, the vehicle speed will rapidly go

down when the vehicle ahead is rec‐

ognized suddenly.

• Select the appropriate set speed on

curves and adjust your vehicle speed

by depressing the accelerator or

brake pedal according to the road

condition ahead and driving condition.

• Your vehicle speed can be reduced

due to a vehicle in the adjacent lane.

Adjust your vehicle speed by depress‐

ing the brake pedal according to the

road condition ahead and driving con‐

dition. Apply the accelerator pedal

and select the appropriate set speed.

Check to be sure that the road condi‐

tions permit safe operation of the

smart cruise control.

On inclines

• During uphill or downhill driving, the

smart cruise control system may not

detect a moving vehicle in your lane,

and cause your vehicle to accelerate

to the set speed. Also, the vehicle

speed will rapidly down when the ve‐

hicle ahead is recognized suddenly.

• Select the appropriate set speed on

inclines and adjust your vehicle speed

by depressing the accelerator or

brake pedal according to the road

condition ahead and driving condition.

Driving your vehicle

5-76

Lane changing

• A vehicle which moves into your lane

from an adjacent lane cannot be rec‐

ognized by the sensor until it is in the

sensor's detection range.

• The sensor may not detect immedi‐

ately when a vehicle cuts in suddenly.

Always pay attention to the traffic,

road and driving conditions.

• If a vehicle which moves into your

lane is slower than your vehicle, your

speed may decrease to maintain the

distance to the vehicle ahead.

• If a vehicle which moves into your

lane is faster than your vehicle, your

vehicle will accelerate to the selected

speed.

• Your vehicle may accelerate when a

vehicle ahead of you disappears.

• When you are warned that the vehi‐

cle ahead of you is not detected,

drive with caution.

Vehicle recognition

Some vehicles ahead in your lane can‐

not be recognized by the sensor as fol‐

lows:

-

Narrow vehicles such as motorcycles

or bicycles

-

Vehicles offset to one side

-

Slow-moving vehicles or sudden-de‐

celerating vehicles

-

Stopped vehicles

-

Vehicles with small rear profile such

as trailers with no loads
