•
SCC is also canceled when the driver’s door is opened, gear shift is changed out of D (Drive), EPB is activated and various other conditions See Owner’s Manual for other conditions
•
In standard Cruise Control, the driver needs to manually assess the distance from other vehicles as the system will not automatically apply brakes
•
If the SCC system is left on, it can be activated inadvertently Keep the system off when not in use to avoid setting a speed that the driver is not aware of
•
When following a vehicle, the system will automatically adjust your cruise speed based on the vehicle detected in front
To change the Cruise Control mode from SCC to standard Cruise Control, press and hold button D Repeat to switch modes again ( The SCC system must not be activated to change modes)
For the SCC system to operate: •When no vehicle is in front, you must be travelling at a minimum speed of 20 mph •When following a vehicle, you must be traveling at a minimum speed of 6 mph
When following a vehicle, the system will automatically adjust your cruise speed based on the vehicle detected ahead If the vehicle detected remains at a standstill for more than 3 seconds, the system will disable
QUICK TIPS
The SCC system is a supplemental system and is not a substitute for safe driving. It is the responsibility of the driver to always check the speed and distance to the vehicle ahead.
