the SNOW mode, as this will overload
the powertrain and may cause a serious
malfunction. Additionally, this will cause
premature tire wear and reduced fuel
economy. When the SNOW mode is se-
lected, small vibration in cornering may oc-
cur. This is not a malfunction.

4ProPILOT Assist switch
The ProPILOT Assist system has the follow-
ing two functions:
1. Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC)
The ICC system can be set to one of two
cruise control modes:
• Conventional (fixed speed) cruise control
mode: For cruising at a preset speed
NOTE:Steering Assist is not available in the con-
ventional (fixed speed) cruise control mode.
•Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode:
The ICC system maintains a selected dis-
tance from the vehicle in front of you within
the speed range of 0 to 90 mph (0 to 144
km/h) up to the set speed. The set speed
can be selected by the driver between 20 to
90 mph (32 to 144 km/h). When the ve-
hicle ahead slows to a stop, your vehicle
gradually decelerates to a standstill. When
the vehicle is stopped, the ICC system
maintains braking force to keep your ve-
hicle stopped.
NOTE:When your vehicle is stopped for less than 3
seconds and the vehicle ahead begins to
move, your vehicle will start moving again
automatically.
