Resuming the set speed
Press and release the RESUME
control. This will automatically
return the vehicle to the previously
set speed. The set speed will display
continuously in the message center
while ACC is active.
Note:RESUME should only be used
if the driver is aware of the set
speed and intends to return to it.
Low speed automatic cancellation
ACC is not functional at vehicle speeds below 18 mph (30 km/h). Once
the vehicle speed drops below 18 mph (30 km/h), an audible alarm will
sound, DRIVER INTERVENE will be displayed in the message center,
and the automatic braking will be released. The driver must take control
at this time.
Hilly condition usage
It is recommended that the driver select a lower gear position when ACC
is active in situations such as prolonged downhill driving on steep grades
(i.e., driving in mountainous areas). In these situations, additional engine
braking is needed to reduce the load on the vehicle’s regular brake
system to prevent them from overheating. For more information,
referenceUnderstanding the gearshift position of the 6-speed
automatic transmissionin theDrivingchapter.
Note:If ACC is applying brakes for an extended period of time, the
driver will receive a DRIVER INTERVENE message and chime and ACC
will shut down. This is to allow the brakes to cool down. When the
brakes have cooled down, the ACC will again function normally.

doors.
Smart unlocks
This feature helps to prevent you from locking yourself out of the vehicle
if your key is still in the ignition.
When you open one of the front doors and you lock the vehicle with the
power door lock control (on the driver or passenger door trim panel), all
the doors will lock, then all doors will automatically unlock reminding
you that your key is still in the ignition.
The vehicle can still be locked, with the key in the ignition, by locking
the driver’s door with a key, using the
control on the transmitter, or
locking the vehicle with the keyless entry keypad.
If both front doors are closed, the vehicle can be locked from any
method, regardless of whether the key is in the ignition or not.
Smart unlocks for Intelligent Access Keys (if equipped)
The smart unlock feature is intended to prevent you from unintentionally
locking your Intelligent Access Key inside your vehicle’s passenger
compartment or trunk.
When you lock your vehicle using the driver or passenger power door
lock control (with the door open), after you close the door the vehicle
will search for a Intelligent Access Key in the passenger compartment. If
a Intelligent Access Key is found inside the vehicle, all of the doors will
immediately unlock and the horn will chirp, indicating that the Intelligent
Access Key is inside.
In order to override the smart unlock feature and intentionally lock the
Intelligent Access Key inside the vehicle, you can lock your vehicle using
your keyless entry keypad or using the
control on another Intelligent
Access Key. Refer toKeyless entry systemin this chapter for more
information on keyless entry keypad operation.
If your vehicle’s perimeter alarm is in the armed state, the smart unlock
feature will not allow you to lock your Intelligent Access Key inside the

Access Key is inside. If you would like to intentionally lock your
Intelligent Access Key in the trunk of your vehicle, first disarm the
perimeter alarm by unlocking the vehicle, then place the Intelligent
Access Key in the trunk, close the trunk, and rearm your perimeter
alarm system by locking the vehicle using your keyless entry keypad or
another Intelligent Access Key. For more information on
