•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

cases, ACC 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

■There is a vehicle ahead
ACC monitors if a vehicle ahead of you ente rs the ACC range. If a vehicle is detected 
doing so, the ACC system maintains or decele rates your vehicle’s set speed in order 
to keep the vehicle’s se t following-interval from the vehicle ahead.
2To Set or Change Following-interval  P. 515
When a vehicle whose speed is slower than 
your set speed is detected in front of you, your 
vehicle starts to slow down.
■When in Operation1 When in Operation
If the vehicle detected  ahead of you slows down 
abruptly, or if a nother vehicle is de tected cutting in 
front of you, the beep er sounds and a message 
appears on the driver information interface.
Depress the brake pedal,  and keep an appropriate 
interval from the vehicle ahead.

■There is no vehicle ahead
Your vehicle maintains the set speed without 
having to keep your foot on the brake or 
accelerator pedal.
If there previously was a vehicle detected 
ahead that kept your ve hicle from traveling at 
the set speed, ACC accelerates your vehicle to 
the set speed, and then maintains it.
■When you depress the accelerator pedal
You can temporarily increase the vehicle speed . In this case, there is no audible or 
visual alerts even if a  vehicle is in ACC range.
ACC stays on unless you cancel it. Once  you release the accelerator pedal, the 
system resumes the set speed.
1 When in Operation
Even if the interval betw een your vehicle and the 
vehicle detected ahead is short, ACC may start 
accelerating your vehi cle under the following 
circumstances:
•The vehicle ahead of you is going at almost the 
same speed as, or faster than, your vehicle.
•A vehicle that cuts in front of you is going faster 
than your vehicle, gradua lly increasing the interval 
between the vehicles.
You can also set the system  to beep when a vehicle in 
front of you comes in and goes out of the ACC 
detecting range. Change the  ACC Forward Vehicle 
Detect Beep  setting.
