DESCRIPTION

DESCRIPTIONPFP:00000
OutlineNKS003EJ
The Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC) system automatically maintains a selected distance from the vehicle
ahead according to that vehicle's speed, or at the set speed, if the road ahead is clear.
The ICC function has two cruise control modes and brake assist (with preview function).
VEHICLE-TO-VEHICLE DISTANCE CONTROL MODE
With vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode, the driver can maintain the same speed as other vehicles with-
out the constant need to adjust the set speed as the driver would with a normal cruise control system.
The system is intended to enhance the operation of the vehicle when following the vehicle traveling in the
same lane and direction.
If the distance sensor detects a slower moving vehicle ahead, the system will reduce speed so that the vehicle
ahead can be followed at the selected distance.
The system automatically controls the throttle and applies the brakes (up to 25% of vehicle braking power) if
necessary.
The detection range of the sensor is approximately 120 m (390 ft) ahead.
Refer to Owner's Manual for Intelligent Cruise Control System operating instructions.
CONVENTIONAL (FIXED SPEED) CRUISE CONTROL MODE
Conventional (fixed speed) cruise control mode is cruising at preset speeds.
Refer to Owner's Manual for Intelligent Cruise Control System operating instructions.
BRAKE ASSIST (WITH PREVIEW FUNCTION)
When the force applied to brake pedal exceeds a certain level, the Brake Assist is activated and generates a
greater braking force than that of a conventional brake booster even with light pedal force.
When the Preview Function identifies the need to apply the sudden brake by sensing the vehicle ahead in the
same lane and the distance and relative speed from it, it applies the brake pre-pressure before driver depress
the brake pedal and improves brake response by reducing its free play.
Refer to Owner's Manual for BRAKE ASSIST (WITH PREVIEW FUNCTION) operating instructions.

Components DescriptionNKS003EL
CAN CommunicationNKS003EM
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real time application. It is an on-vehicle mul-
tiplex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent error detection ability. Many elec-
tric control units are equipped onto a vehicle, and each control unit shares information and links with other
control units during operation (not independent). In CAN communication, control units are connected with 2
communication lines (CAN-H line, CAN-L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission with less wiring.
Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only.
CAN COMMUNICATION UNIT
Refer to LAN-32, "CAN Communication Unit" .

booster based on that sensor signals and CAN commu-
nication data, then controls vehicle distance.

beam to measure distance from preceding vehicle.
ECM ××× Transmits throttle position signal and ICC steering
switch signal to ICC unit through CAN communication.

through CAN communication.
Brake pressure sensor ×× Detects fluid pressure in master cylinder.
Brake booster ×× Adjusts brake fluid pressure, based on command from
ICC unit.

CAN communication.
TCM ×× Transmits gear position signal and output shaft revolu-
tion signal to ICC unit through CAN communication.
Unified meter and A/C amp. ××× Receives ICC system display signal, ICC warning lamp
signal and buzzer output signal from ICC unit through
CAN communication.
ICC brake switch, stop
lamp switch ××× Transmit operating signal to ICC unit when touching
brake pedal. ICC unit cancels cruise system at driver's
brake operation.
ICC brake hold relay × Receives stop lamp driving signal from ICC unit, and
turns stop lamp ON.

VEHICLE-TO-VEHICLE DISTANCE CONTROL MODE
Set Checking
1. Press the MAIN switch for less than 1.5 seconds.
2. Drive the vehicle between 40 km/h (25 MPH) and 144 km/h (90 MPH).
3. Push the SET/COAST switch.
4. Confirm that the desired speed is set as hand is released from the SET/COAST switch.
NOTE:

When there is no vehicle ahead, drive at the set speed steadily.

When there is a vehicle ahead, control to maintain distance from the vehicle ahead, watching its speed.

The set vehicle speed is displayed on the ICC system indicator in the combination meter.
Check For Increase Of Cruising Speed
1. Set vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode at desired speed.
2. Check if the set speed increases by 1 km/h (1 MPH) as RESUME/ACCELERATE switch is pushed.
NOTE:
The maximum set speed of the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is 144 km/h (90 MPH).
Check For Decrease Of Cruising Speed
1. Set vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode at desired speed.
2. Check if the set speed decreases by 1 km/h (1 MPH) as SET/COAST switch is pushed.
NOTE:

Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is automatically turned off when the driving speed lowers to 32
km/h (20 MPH) due to the deceleration of the vehicle ahead.

The minimum set speed of the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is 40 km/h (25 MPH).
Check For Cancellation Of Vehicle-To-Vehicle Distance Control Mode (Normal Driving Condi-
tion) In The Following Cases:

When the brake pedal is depressed after the system is turned ON.

When the selector lever is shifted to the “N” (Neutral) position.

When the MAIN switch is turned OFF.

When CANCEL switch is operated.
Check For Restoring Speed That Is Set By Vehicle-To-Vehicle Distance Control Mode Before
Cancellation
1. Cancel the system by depressing the foot brake. Then, check that the speed before cancellation is
restored when pressing RESUME/ACCELERATE switch with 40 km/h (25 MPH) or above.
2. Cancel the system by shifting the selector lever to “N” position. Then, check if the speed set before the cancellation is restored when RESUME/ACCELERATE switch is pushed up.
3. Check if the speed previously set is restored when RESUME/ACCELERATE switch is operated with driv- ing 40 km/h (25 MPH), after canceling vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode by operating the CANCEL
switch.
Check For MAIN Switch
1. Start engine. Then, check if the following operations are per- formed correctly.
2. Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is displayed in combi- nation meter illuminates when MAIN switch is pressed “ON” for
less than 1.5 seconds and ready for operation. The illumination
goes off when MAIN switch is turned to OFF.
3. “CRUISE” illumination and ICC system display go off when the ignition switch is turned to OFF while MAIN switch is ON
(“CRUISE” illumination is ON and vehicle-to-vehicle distance
control mode is ready for operation).
