On  open  roads  with  no  traffic , it  functions  like  a 
cruise  control  system. The  stored  speed  is  main
tained . When  approaching  a vehicle driving 
ahead,  the adaptive  cruise  contro l system  auto
matically  brakes  to  match  that  vehicle's  speed  
and  then  mainta ins  the  set  distance.  As soon  as 
the  system  does  not  detect  a vehicle  dr iv ing 
ahead,  adaptive  cru ise  control  accelerates  up  to 
the  stored  speed . 
Applies  to: vehicles with  automatic  transmissions 
In  stop-and-go  traffic,  adaptive  cruise  control  can  
brake  until  the  veh icle  is stationary  and  then  can 
also  start  driving  again  automat ically  under  cer
ta in cond itions
