DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
OutlineINFOID:0000000003533775
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). The ICC system may
AUTO-CANCEL for various reasons, for example, when the windshield wipers are operating.
VEHICLE-TO-VEHICLE DISTANCE CONTROL MODE
Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode, the same speed as other vehicles, can be maintained without the
constant need to adjust the operating speed as with a conventional cruise control system.
The system is intended to enhance the operation of the vehicle when following another vehicle 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 operation 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
depresses the brake pedal and improves brake response by reducing its free play.
Refer to Owner's Manual for Intelligent Cruise Control System operating instructions.

How to Proceed with Trouble DiagnosisINFOID:0000000003533529
1. Confirm the symptom or customer complaint.
2. Understand operation description and function description. Refer to DI-46, "
System Description".
3. Perform pre-diagnosis inspection. Refer to DI-51, "
Pre-diagnosis Inspection".
4. Perform self-diagnosis. Refer to DI-51, "
Self-Diagnosis Function".
5. Perform the preliminary check. Refer to DI-53, "
Preliminary Check".
6. Check symptom and repair or replace the cause of malfunction. Refer to DI-54, "
Symptom Chart".
7. Does the rear sonar system operate properly? If so, go to 8. If not, go to 3.
8. Clear fault codes. Refer to DI-51, "
Self-Diagnosis Function".
9. Inspection End.
Pre-diagnosis InspectionINFOID:0000000003533530
SENSOR STATUS CHECK
• Check that the rear sonar sensor is properly aligned (bumper is not misaligned, no deformation in sensor
mounting area.
• Check that snow, mud, or other foreign objects are not adhering to the rear sonar sensor.
• Check that there is no deformation, scratches, or other damage to the rear sonar sensor.
• Check that water has not accumulated in the rear sonar sensor.
CAUTION:
Use water, cotton swab, or other soft material for cleaning the sensor.
1. Check that there are no obstacles within each rear sonar sensor's detection range.
2. Check that there are no nearby ultrasound sources (such as the sounds of vehicle horns, motorcycle
engines, or truck air brakes).
3. Check that the vehicle is on a level surface.
Self-Diagnosis FunctionINFOID:0000000003533531
There are four modes of self-diagnosis; entering diagnostics, requesting number of fault codes, requesting
fault codes, and idling or clearing fault codes. These steps must be followed in order. Self-diagnosis can be
manually exited by turning the ignition switch OFF, or selecting reverse gear. Self-diagnosis will exit unless a
fault code request occurs before a message is repeated five times without acknowledgement.
ENTERING DIAGNOSTICS MODE
1. Turn ignition switch ON. Rear sonar system OFF switch indica-
tor lamp illuminates for three seconds and then turns off.
2. Immediately push rear sonar system OFF switch ten times
within five seconds.
3. The sonar buzzer will sound once and the rear sonar system
OFF indicator will flash once.
REQUESTING NUMBER OF FAULT CODES MODE
Detection range
Rear sonar sensors Approx. 1.8 m (5.9 ft.) maximum
