WARNING!
Leaving the Electronic Speed Control system on when not in use is dangerous. You could
accidentally set the system or cause it to go faster than you want. You could lose control
and have an accident. Always leave the system OFF when you are not using it.
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
If your vehicle is equipped with Adaptive Cruise Control the controls operate exactly the
same as the standard cruise control with one difference. You can set a specified distance
you would like to maintain between you and the vehicle in front of you.
If the ACC sensor detects a vehicle ahead, ACC will apply limited braking or acceleration
automatically to maintain a preset following distance, while matching the speed of the
vehicle ahead.
If the sensor does not detect a vehicle directly ahead of you, it functions like a standard
cruise control system, maintaining the speed you set.
Distance Setting (ACC Only)
The specified following distance for ACC can be set by varying the distance setting between
3 (long), 2 (medium), and 1 (short). Using this distance setting and the vehicle speed, ACC
calculates and sets the distance to the vehicle ahead. This distance setting displays in the
Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC).
• To set or change the distance setting, press the Distance button and release. Each timethe button is pressed, the distance setting adjusts between long (3), medium (2), and
short (1). The distance setting will default to the last set mode the next time the vehicle is
restarted and the ACC system is turned on.
Mode (ACC Only)
If desired, the Adaptive Cruise Control mode can be turned off and the system can be
operated as a standard (fixed speed) Cruise Control. When in the standard (fixed speed)
Cruise Control mode the distance setting feature will be disabled and the system will
maintain the speed you set.
• To change modes, press the MODE button when the system is in either the OFF, READY, orSET position. “Cruise Ready” will be displayed if the system was in ACC READY or ACC
SET position. “Cruise Off” will be displayed if the system was in the ACC OFF position. To
switch back to Adaptive Cruise Control mode, press the MODE button a second time.
Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further information.
Forward Collision Warning
The Forward Collision Warning (FCW) system provides the driver with audible and visual
warnings (within the EVIC) when it detects a potential frontal collision. The warnings are
intended to provide the driver with enough time to react and avoid the potential collision.

Resetting The Light After Servicing
Vehicles Equipped With Keyless Enter-N-Go™
• Without pressing the brake pedal, push the ENGINE START/STOP button and cycle theignition to the ON/RUN position (do not start the engine.)
• Fully depress the accelerator pedal, slowly, three times within 10 seconds.
• Without pressing the brake pedal, push the ENGINE START/STOP button once to return the ignition to the OFF/LOCK position.
Vehicles Not Equipped With Keyless Enter-N-Go™
• Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position (do not start the engine.)
• Fully depress the accelerator pedal, slowly, three times within 10 seconds.
• Turn the ignition switch to the OFF/LOCK position.
NOTE:
If the indicator message illuminates when you start the vehicle, the oil change indicator
system did not reset. If necessary, repeat this procedure.
IF YOUR ENGINE OVERHEATS
In any of the following situations, you can reduce the potential for overheating by taking the
appropriate action:
• On the highways — slow down.
• In city traffic — while stopped, shift the transmission to NEUTRAL, but do not increase engine idle speed.
NOTE:
There are steps that you can take to slow down an impending overheat condition:
• If your air conditioner (A/C) is on, turn it off. The A/C system adds heat to the engine cooling system and turning the A/C off can help remove this heat.
• You can also turn the temperature control to maximum heat, the mode control to floor and the blower control to high. This allows the heater core to act as a supplement to the
radiator and aids in removing heat from the engine cooling system.
CAUTION!
Driving with a hot cooling system could damage your vehicle. If the temperature gauge
reads HOT (H), pull over and stop the vehicle. Idle the vehicle with the air conditioner
turned off until the pointer drops back into the normal range. If the pointer remains on
HOT (H), and you hear continuous chimes, turn the engine off immediately, and call for
service.
