Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)*
Helps maintain a constant vehicle speed an d a set following-interval behind a vehicle
detected ahead of yours, without you having to keep your foot on the brake or the
accelerator.1 Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)*
Important Reminder
As with any system, there are limits to ACC. Use the
brake pedal whenever necessary, and always keep a
safe interval betw een your vehicle and other vehicles.
The radar sensor for ACC is shared with the collision
mitigation braking system
TM (CMBSTM).

(CMBSTM) P. 471
3WARNING
Improper use of ACC can lead to a crash.
Use ACC only when driving on
expressways or freeways and in good
weather conditions.
