style to the Based on Driving Style’s
vehicle distance, acceleration, and
reaction speed.
• Based on Driving Style may not reflect driving styles or driving conditions that
affect safe driving.
• If you are driving in special conditions, such as snow, rain, fog, or steep slopes,
the vehicle may not be driven
according to the driver’s driving style.

Information • Driving styles that are far from safe driving such as sudden acceleration may not be
