uuWhen Driving uAdaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low Speed Follow (LSF)*
Continued
Driving
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low Speed
Follow (LSF)*
Helps maintain a constant vehicle speed an d a set following-interval behind a vehicle
detected ahead of yours and, if the detect ed vehicle slows to a stop, decelerates and
stops your vehicle, without you having to keep your foot on the brake or the
accelerator.
When ACC with LSF slows your vehicle by applying the brakes, your vehicle’s brake
lights will illuminate.
1 Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low Speed Follow (LSF)*
Important Reminder
As with any system, there are limits to ACC with LSF.
Use the brake pedal whenever necessary, and always
keep a safe distance between your vehicle and other
vehicles.
3WARNING
Improper use of ACC wi th LSF can lead to a
crash.
Use ACC with LSF only when driving on
expressways or freeways and in good
weather conditions.
3WARNING
ACC with LSF has limited braking capability
and may not stop your vehicle in time to
avoid a collision with a vehicle that quickly
stops in front of you.
Always be prepared to apply the brake
pedal if the conditions require.
When to use
■Vehicle speed for ACC with LSF: A vehicle is detected ahead within ACC with
LSF range – ACC with LSF operates at speeds up to 90 mph (145 km/h).
No vehicle is detected within ACC with LSF range – ACC with LSF operates at
the speed of about 25 mph (40 km/h) or above.
■Gear position for ACC with LSF: In ( D. The radar sensor is in
the front grille.
The camera is
located behind the
rearview mirror.

■How to activate the system1Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low Speed Follow (LSF)*
When the MAIN button is pressed, ACC with LSF and
Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS) are both turned
on or off.
ACC with LSF may not work properly under certain
conditions. 2 ACC with LSF Conditions and Limitations
P. 358
When not using ACC with LSF: Turn off adaptive
cruise by pressing the MAIN button. This also will
turn off the Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS).
Do not use the ACC with LSF under the following
conditions.
•On roads with heavy traf fic or while driving in
continuous stop and go traffic.
•On roads with sharp turns.
•On roads with steep downhill sections, as the set
vehicle speed can be exceeded by coasting. In such
cases, the ACC with LSF will not apply the brakes to
maintain the set speed.
•On roads with toll collection facilities or other
objects between lanes of traffic, or in parking
areas, or faci lities with driv e through access.
■Press the MAIN button on
the steering wheel. ACC
(green) is on in the
instrument panel.

uuWhen Driving uForward Collision Warning (FCW ) with Pedestrian Detection*
Continued
Driving
Forward Collision Warning (FCW) with Pedestrian
Detection*
Alerts you when it determines the possibility of your vehicle colliding with a vehicle
or pedestrian detected in front of you.
If the system determines a collision is possible, it gives visual and audible alerts.
u Take appropriate action to prevent a coll ision (apply the brakes, change lanes,
etc.).
■How the system works
For a possible collision with a vehicle: Warnings may be given when your vehicle
speed is about 10 mph (15 km/h) and above.
For a possible collision with a pedestrian: Warnings may be given when your vehicle
speed is between about 10 and 62 mph (15 and 100 km/h).
1 Forward Collision Warning (FCW) with Pedestrian Detection*
Important Safety Reminder
FCW with Pedestrian Detection cannot detect all
objects ahead and may not detect a given object;
accuracy of the system will vary based on weather,
speed and other factors. FCW with Pedestrian
Detection does not include a braking function. It is
always your responsibilit y to safely operate the
vehicle and avoid collisions.
You can change the Forward Collision Warning
Distance setting or turn the system on and off. 2 Customized Features P. 126, 257

uuWhen Driving uVehicle Stability Assist (VSA® ), aka Electronic Stability Control (ESC), System
Driving
Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA®), aka Electronic
Stability Control (ESC), System
VSA ® helps to stabilize the vehicle during cornering if the vehicle turns more or less
than what was intended. It also assists in maintaining traction on slippery surfaces.
It does so by regulating engine output and selectively applying the brakes.
When the VSA® system indicator comes on
and stays on while driv ing, there may be a
problem with the system . While this may not
interfere with normal driving, have your
vehicle checked by a dealer immediately.
■VSA ® Operation
1 Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA ®), aka Electronic Stability Control
(ESC), System
The VSA ® may not function properl y if tire type and
size are mixed. Make sure to use the same size and
type of tire, and the air pressures as specified.
When the VSA ® system indicator comes on and stays
on while driving, there may be a problem with the
system. While this may not interfere with normal
driving, have your vehi cle checked by a dealer
immediately.
VSA ® cannot enhance stability in all driving situations
and does not control the entire braking system. You
still need to drive and corner at speeds appropriate
for the conditions and always leave a sufficient
margin of safety.
The main function of the VSA ® system is generally
known as Electronic Stab ility Control (ESC). The
system also includes a traction control function.
