There are two ways to decrease the set speed. The set speed will decrease by 1 mph (1 km/h) every time you push down the “SET -” switch while the ACC is activated. If you hold the switch pushed down, the set speed decreases in 5 mph (5 km/h) increments.
By depressing the brake pedal while the ACC is activated, the ACC control is canceled and your vehicle speed will decrease.At the point where the vehicle speed reaches your desired speed, push down and release the “SET -” switch; the new speed is then setin the system.
WA R N I N G The ACC braking control and approach alarm functions will not work while theaccelerator pedal is depressed.NOTE
 The set speed indicator in the multi informa- tion display will show “---” while the accel- erator pedal
is depressed.
 If the “SET -” button is not pushed down while depressing the ac
celerator pedal, your
vehicle speed will return to the set speed,after the accelerator pedal is released. When the accelerator pedal is released, the ACC braking control and approach alarm func-tions may not immediately work.
To decrease the set speed

By using the “SET -” switch:

NOTE
 There is some time lag until the vehicle begins decelerating af
ter the set speed has
been changed.
 The set speed can be changed even while your vehicle is followi
ng a vehicle in front
using the ACC. In this case, however,although the set speed itself is decreased, your vehicle will not decelerate.  When the switch is held, a buzzer will sound every time the set speed changes

Forward Collision Mitigation System (FCM) (if so equipped)
Features and controls 5-107
5
N00577300024
The Forward Collision Mitigation System (FCM) is designed to help reduce the risk of a collision with a vehicl
e straight ahead of your
vehicle. The FCM uses a radar sensor (A) todetermine the distance to a vehicle in front and relative speed to th
at vehicle. The FCM is
not designed as an automatic driving systemor as a collision
avoidance system.
When your vehicle is approaching a vehicle straight ahead in your path and the FCM
judges that there is the ri
sk of a collision, the
system will give audibl
e and visual warnings.
When the FCM judges th
at a collision with
the vehicle straight-ahead is imminent, the system will automatically apply moderatebraking to warn you to apply the brakes immediately. When the FCM judges th
at a collision with
the vehicle straight-a
head is highly unavoid-
able, the system will apply emergency brak- ing to reduce the severity of the collision and, if possible, to avoid the collision.
N00577400025
If the system judges that there is a risk of your vehicle colliding wi
th a vehicle in front,
this function warns you of the potential haz- ard with visual and audible alarms.When this function is triggered, a buzzer sounds and, at the same time, a “BRAKE” message appears on the information screen ofthe multi-information display. The FCM will also prepare to provide quick brake response and greater brake force whenyou apply the brakes.
Forward Collision Mitiga- tion System (FCM)
(if so
equipped)
WA R N I N G Before using the FCM, read this entire section to fully understand the limitations of this system. Failure to follow instruc- tions could result in an accident.
 The FCM is desi
gned to help avoid certain
frontal collisions or
reduce the crash
speed in such collisions. It is not a substi-tute for your safe and careful driving. Under certain circumstances, the system may not operate or may not detect cor-rectly a vehicle in fr
ont. When
your vehi-
cle is approaching a vehicle too closely, take all necessary actions to avoid a colli-sion, such as brakin
g and steering, regard-
less of whether the FCM is activated or not. Never rely on the FCM to prevent acollision.

N00577700028
When the FCM judges that a collision with the vehicle straight-ahead is imminent, the FCM will automatically apply moderate brak- ing to warn the driver to apply the brakesimmediately. If the FCM judges that the collision is highly unavoidable, it will automatically applyemergency braking to reduce the severity of the collision and, if possible, to avoid the col- lision.When the FCM applies
emergency braking, a
buzzer sounds and a warn
ing message is dis-
played in the information screen of the multi- information display.
NOTE
 If the FCM detects that the driver is making steering and/or accelera
tion inputs to try and
avoid a collision, the forward collision warn-ings may stop.
FCM braking function

WA R N I N G If the ASC is turned off, the FCM braking function will not operat
e. Refer to “Active
stability control” on page 5-90. If the brake pedal is not depressed within 2 seconds after your vehicle has been stopped by the FCM, a warning buzzer will sound and the brak
es activated by the
FCM will automatically be released. Apply the brakes as
necessary to keep
your vehicle stationary.NOTE
 When depressing the brake pedal while auto- matic braking is applie
d, the brake pedal will
feel firm. This is normal. Depress the brake pedal harder to apply
greater braking force.
 During the automatic
braking, operating
sounds may be heard.
This is normal.
WA R N I N GThe FCM will not activate and will not provide either warnin
g or braking in cer-
tain situations. Some of these include:• When the selector lever is in a positionother than the “D” (DRIVE) or “Ds”(DOWNSHIFT & SPORTY DRIVING).• When your vehicle speed is extremelylow, less than ap
proximately 2 mph
(2km/h).• When an object other than a vehicle,such as a pedestri
an, is in front.
• When the FCM has detected a problem in the system.• When a vehicle suddenly cuts in front ofyour vehicle.• When the vehicle in fr
ont is moving at a
speed much lower than your vehicle’s speed.
 Braking function will
not work in the fol-
lowing situations.• Your vehicle is driving at approximately19 mph (30 km/h) or faster while thevehicle in front is
stationary or moving
extremely slow.•ASC is OFF. The forward collision warning function and/or the FCM brakin
g function may not
activate in certain situations. Some of these include:• When a vehicle cuts
into your path at a
close distance.
