{Warning
Always check the cruise
control indicator on the
instrument cluster to
determine which mode
cruise control is in before
using the feature. If ACC is
not active, the vehicle will
not automatically brake for
other vehicles, which could
cause a crash if the brakes
are not applied manually.
You and others could be
seriously injured or killed.
Setting Adaptive Cruise
Control
If
Jis on when not in use, it
could get pressed and go into
cruise when not desired. Keep
Joff when cruise is not
being used.
Select the set speed desired
for cruise. This is the vehicle
speed when no vehicle is
detected in its path. ACC will not set at a speed
less than 25 km/h (15 mph),
although it can be resumed
when driving at lower speeds.
The minimum allowable set
speed is 25 km/h (15 mph).
To set ACC while moving:
1. Press
J.
2. Get up to the desired speed.
3. Press and release SET–.
4. Remove your foot from the accelerator.
After ACC is set, it may
immediately apply the brakes if
a vehicle ahead is detected
closer than the selected
following gap.
ACC can also be set while the
vehicle is stopped if ACC is on
and the brake pedal is applied. The ACC indicator displays on
the instrument cluster and
Head-Up Display (HUD),
if equipped. When ACC is
turned on, the indicator will be
lit white. When ACC is
engaged, the indicator will turn
green.
Be mindful of speed limits,
surrounding traffic speeds,
and weather conditions when
selecting the set speed.
Resuming a Set Speed
If the ACC is set at a desired
speed and then the brakes are
applied, ACC is disengaged
without erasing the set speed
from memory.
To begin using ACC again,
press RES+ up briefly.
.If the vehicle is moving more
than 5 km/h (3 mph), it
returns to the previous set
speed.
.If the vehicle is stopped with
the brake pedal applied,
press RES+ and release the

A green ACC indicator and the
set speed display on the
instrument cluster. The vehicle
ahead indicator may be
flashing if a vehicle ahead was
present and moved. See
“Approaching and Following a
Vehicle” later in this section.
Once ACC has resumed,
if there is no vehicle ahead,
if the vehicle ahead is beyond
the selected following gap,
or if the vehicle has exited a
sharp curve, then the vehicle
speed will increase to the set
speed.
Increasing Speed While ACC
is at a Set Speed
If ACC is already activated, do
one of the following:
.Use the accelerator to get
to the higher speed. Briefly
press and release SET– and
release the accelerator
pedal. The vehicle will now cruise at the higher speed.
When the accelerator pedal
is pressed, ACC will not
brake because it is
overridden. While
overridden, the ACC
indicator will turn blue on the
instrument cluster and
heads up display,
if equipped.
.Press and hold RES+ until
the desired set speed is
displayed, then release it.
.To increase speed in small
increments, press RES+ to
the first detent. For each
press, the vehicle goes
1 km/h (1 mph) faster.
.To increase speed in larger
increments, press RES+ to
the second detent. For each
press, the vehicle speed
increases to the next 5 km/h
(5 mph) mark on the
speedometer.
The set speed can also be
increased while the vehicle is
stopped.
.If stopped with the brake
applied, press RES+ until the
desired set speed is
displayed.
.If ACC is holding the vehicle
at a stop and there is
another vehicle directly
ahead, pressing RES+ will
increase the set speed.
.Pressing RES+ when there is
no longer a vehicle ahead or
the vehicle ahead is pulling
away and the brake is not
applied will cause the ACC to
resume.
When it is determined that
there is no vehicle ahead or
the vehicle ahead is beyond
the selected following gap,
then the vehicle speed will
increase to the set speed.
The speedometer reading can
be displayed in either English
or metric units. See
Instrument Cluster 0119. The
increment value used depends
on the units displayed.

Reducing Speed While ACC is
at a Set Speed
If ACC is already activated, do
one of the following:
.Use the brake to get to the
desired lower speed.
Release the brake and press
SET–. The vehicle will now
cruise at the lower speed.
.Press and hold SET– until
the desired lower speed is
reached, then release it.
.To decrease speed in
smaller increments, press
SET− to the first detent. For
each press, the vehicle goes
about 1 km/h (1 mph) slower.
.To decrease speed in larger
increments, press SET− to
the second detent. For each
press, the vehicle speed
decreases to the next
5 km/h (5 mph) mark on the
speedometer.
The set speed can also be
decreased while the vehicle is
stopped.
.If stopped with the brake
applied, press or hold SET−
until the desired set speed is
displayed.
Selecting the Follow
Distance Gap
When a slower moving vehicle
is detected ahead within the
selected following gap, ACC
will adjust the vehicle's speed
and attempt to maintain the
follow distance gap selected.
Press
[on the steering
wheel to adjust the following
gap. Each press cycles the gap
button through three settings:
Far, Medium, or Near.
When pressed, the current
gap setting displays briefly on
the instrument cluster and
HUD, if equipped. The gap
setting will be maintained until
it is changed.
Since each gap setting
corresponds to a following
time (Far, Medium, or Near),
the following distance will vary
based on vehicle speed. The faster the vehicle speed, the
further back your vehicle will
follow a vehicle detected
ahead. Consider traffic and
weather conditions when
selecting the following gap.
The range of selectable gaps
may not be appropriate for all
drivers and driving conditions.
Changing the gap setting
automatically changes the
alert timing sensitivity (Far,
Medium, or Near) for the
Forward Collision Alert (FCA)
feature. See Forward Collision
Alert (FCA) System
0297.
Alerting the Driver
With Head-Up Display

Driving and Operating 279
Without Head-Up Display
If ACC is engaged, driver
action may be required when
ACC cannot apply sufficient
braking because of
approaching a vehicle too
rapidly.
When this condition occurs,
the collision alert symbol will
flash on the windshield. Either
eight beeps will sound from
the front, or both sides of the
Safety Alert Seat will pulse
five times. Touch the Settings
icon on the infotainment home
page. Select “Vehicle”to
display the list of available
options and select “Collision/
Detection Systems”.
See Defensive Driving 0230. Approaching and Following a
Vehicle
The vehicle ahead indicator is
in the instrument cluster and
HUD display, if equipped.
The vehicle ahead indicator
only displays when a vehicle is
detected in your vehicle’s path
moving in the same direction.
If this symbol is not displaying,
ACC will not respond to or
brake for vehicles ahead.
ACC automatically slows the
vehicle down and adjusts
vehicle speed to follow the
vehicle in front at the selected
follow gap. The vehicle speed
increases or decreases to
follow the vehicle in front of
you, but will not exceed the
set speed. It may apply limited
braking, if necessary. When braking is active, the brake
lamps will come on. The
automatic braking may feel or
sound different than if the
brakes were applied manually.
This is normal.
Passing a Vehicle While
Using ACC
If the set speed is high
enough, and the left turn
signal is used to pass a vehicle
ahead in the selected
following gap, ACC may assist
by gradually accelerating the
vehicle prior to the lane
change.
{Warning
When using ACC to pass a
vehicle or perform a lane
change, the following
distance to the vehicle being
passed may be reduced.
ACC may not apply
sufficient acceleration or
braking when passing a
vehicle or performing a lane

change. Always be ready to
manually accelerate or brake
to complete the pass or lane
change.
Stationary or Very
Slow-Moving Objects
{Warning
ACC may not detect and
react to stopped or
slow-moving vehicles ahead
of you. For example, the
system may not brake for a
vehicle it has never detected
moving. This can occur in
stop-and-go traffic or when
a vehicle suddenly appears
due to a vehicle ahead
changing lanes. Your vehicle
may not stop and could
cause a crash. Use caution
when using ACC. Your
complete attention is always (Continued)
Warning (Continued)
required while driving and
you should be ready to take
action and apply the brakes.
Irregular Objects
Affecting ACC
ACC may have difficulty
detecting the following
objects:
.Vehicles with cargo
extending from the back end.
.Non-standard shaped
vehicles, such as vehicle
transport, vehicles with a
side car fitted, or horse
carriages.
.Objects that are close to the
front of your vehicle.
ACC Automatically
Disengages
ACC may automatically
disengage and the driver will
need to manually apply the
brakes to slow the
vehicle when:
.The sensors are blocked.
.The Traction Control System
(TCS) or StabiliTrak/ESC
system has activated or
been disabled.
.There is a fault in the
system.
.The radar falsely reports
blockage when driving in a
desert or remote area with
no other vehicles or
roadside objects. A DIC
message may display to
indicate that ACC is
temporarily unavailable.
The ACC indicator will turn
white when ACC is no longer
active.
In some cases, when ACC is
temporarily unavailable,
regular cruise control may be
used. See “Switching Between
ACC and Regular Cruise
Control” in this section. Always
consider driving conditions
before using either cruise
control system.

Notification to Resume ACC
ACC will maintain a follow gap
behind a detected vehicle and
slow your vehicle to a stop
behind that vehicle.
If the stopped vehicle ahead
has driven away and ACC has
not resumed, the vehicle
ahead indicator will flash as a
reminder to check traffic
ahead before proceeding. In
addition, the left and right
sides of the Safety Alert Seat
will pulse three times, or three
beeps will sound. Touch the
Settings icon on the
infotainment home page.
