WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the ICC
system could result in serious injury
or death.
.The ICC system is only an aid to
assist the driver and is not a
collision warning or avoidance
device. It is recommended for
highway use only and it is not
intended for city driving. It is the
driver’s responsibility to stay
alert, drive safely, and be in con-
trol of the vehicle at all times.
. There are limitations to the ICC
system capability. The ICC system
does not function in all driving,
traffic, weather, and road condi-
tions. It is the driver’s responsi-
bility to stay alert, drive safely,
keep the vehicle in the traveling
lane, and be in control of the
vehicle at all times.
. Always observe posted speed
limits and do not set the speed
over them.
. The ICC system does not react to
stationary and slow moving vehi-
cles.
Starting and driving5-97

5-102Starting and driving
The warning chime will not sound when:
.Your vehicle approaches other vehi-
cles that are parked or moving slowly.
. The accelerator pedal is depressed,
overriding the system.
NOTE:
The approach warning chime may
sound and the system display may
flash when the radar sensor detects
objects on the side of the vehicle or on
the side of the road. This may cause the
ICC system to decelerate or accelerate
the vehicle. The radar sensor may de-
tect these objects when the vehicle is
driven on winding, narrow, or hilly roads
or when the vehicle is entering or
exiting a curve. In these cases, you will
have to manually control the proper
distance ahead of your vehicle.
Also, the sensor sensitivity can be af-
fected by vehicle operation (steering
maneuver or driving position in the
lane) or traffic or vehicle conditions
(for example, if a vehicle is being driven
with some damage).Acceleration when passing
When the ICC system is engaged above
44 MPH (70 km/h) and following a slower
vehicle (below the vehicle set speed), and
the turn signal is activated to the left, the
ICC system will automatically start to
accelerate the vehicle to help initiate
passing on the left and will begin to
reduce the distance to vehicle directly
ahead. Only the left side turn signal
operates this feature. As the driver steers
the vehicle and moves into the passing
lane, if no vehicle is detected ahead the
ICC system will continue to accelerate to
the vehicle set speed. If another vehicle is
detected ahead, then the vehicle will
accelerate up to the following speed of
that vehicle. If the vehicle is not steered
into the left lane to pass, the acceleration
will stop after a short time and regain the
set following distance. Acceleration can
be stopped at any point by depressing
the brake pedal or the CANCEL switch on
the steering wheel.
WARNING
In order to reduce the risk of a
collision that may result in serious
injury or death, please be aware of
the following: .
This function is only activated
with the left turn signal and will
briefly accelerate the vehicle even
if a lane change is not initiated.
This can include non-passing si-
tuations such as left side exits.
. Ensure that when passing an-
other vehicle, the adjacent lane
is clear before initiating the pass.
Sudden changes in traffic may
occur while passing. Always
manually steer or brake as
needed. Never solely rely on the
system.
Speed Limit Assist - a feature of
ProPILOT Assist with Navi-link (if so
equipped)
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for the Speed Limit Assist. Fail-
ure to operate the vehicle in

ICC system limitations
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for the ICC system. Failure to
operate the vehicle in accordance
with these system limitations could
result in serious injury or death:
. The ICC system is primarily in-
tended for use on highways and
freeways. It is not advisable to
use the ICC system in city/urban
traffic. .
The ICC system will not adapt
automatically to road conditions.
This system should be used in
evenly flowing traffic. Do not use
the system on roads with sharp
curves or on icy roads, in heavy
rain or in fog.
. As there is a performance limit to
the distance control function,
never rely solely on the ICC sys-
tem. This system does not correct
careless, inattentive or absent-
minded driving or overcome poor
visibility in rain, fog, or other bad
weather. Decelerate the vehicle
speed by depressing the brake
pedal, depending on the distance
to the vehicle ahead and the
surrounding circumstances in or-
der to maintain a safe distance
between vehicles.
. When the ICC system automati-
cally brings the vehicle to a stop,
your vehicle can automatically
accelerate if the vehicle is
stopped for less than approxi-
mately 3 seconds. Be prepared
to stop your vehicle if necessary.
. For vehicles equipped with ProPI-
LOT Assist with Navi-link and only
when on a limited access freeway
(as identified in the navigation

SSD0252
SSD0253
When driving on some roads, such as
winding, hilly, curved, narrow roads, or
roads which are under construction, the
radar sensor may detect vehicles in a
different lane, or may temporarily not
detect a vehicle traveling ahead. This
may cause the ICC system to decelerate
or accelerate the vehicle.
The detection of vehicles may also be
affected by vehicle operation (steering
maneuver or traveling position in the
lane, etc.) or vehicle condition.
If this occurs, the ICC system may warn
you by blinking the system indicator and
sounding the chime unexpectedly. You
will have to manually control the proper
distance away from the vehicle traveling
ahead.

STEERING ASSIST
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the
Steering Assist could result in ser-
ious injury or death.
.The Steering Assist is not a re-
placement for proper driving pro-
cedures and is not designed to
correct careless, inattentive or
absent-minded driving. The
Steering Assist will not always
steer the vehicle to keep it in the
lane. It is not designed to prevent
loss of control. It is the driver’s
responsibility to stay alert, drive
safely, keep the vehicle in the
traveling lane, and be in control
of the vehicle at all times.
. As there is a performance limit to
the Steering Assist’s capability,
never rely solely on the system.
The Steering Assist does not
function in all driving, traffic,
weather, and road conditions. Al-
ways drive safely, pay attention
to the operation of the vehicle,
and manually control your vehicle
appropriately. .
The Steering Assist is intended
for use on well-developed high-
ways with gentle (moderate)
curves. To avoid risk of an acci-
dent, do not use this system on
local or non-highway roads.
. The Steering Assist only steers
the vehicle to maintain its posi-
tion in the center of a lane. The
vehicle will not steer to avoid
objects in the road in front of
the vehicle or to avoid a vehicle
moving into your lane.
. It is the driver’s responsibility to
stay alert, drive safely, keep the
vehicle in the traveling lane, and
be in control of the vehicle at all
times. Never take your hands off
the steering wheel when driving.
Always keep your hands on the
steering wheel and drive your
vehicle safely.
. Always drive carefully and atten-
tively when using the Steering
Assist. Read and understand the
Owner’s Manual thoroughly be-
fore using the Steering Assist. To
avoid serious injury or death, do
not rely on the system to prevent
accidents or to control the vehi-
cle’s speed in emergency situa-
tions. Do not use the Steering Assist except in appropriate road
and traffic conditions.
Steering Assist operation
Steering Assist helps the driver keep the
vehicle near the center of the lane when
both right and left lane markers are
detected. Steering Assist only operates
when combined with the Intelligent
Cruise Control (ICC) system. For additional
information, see “Intelligent Cruise Con-
trol (ICC)” (P.5-97).
The Steering Assist can be activated
when the following conditions are met:
.
The ICC system is activated.
. Lane markers on both sides are clearly
detected.
. A vehicle ahead is detected (when the
vehicle is driven at speeds under 37
MPH (60 km/h)).
. The driver grips the steering wheel.
. The vehicle is driven at the center of
the lane.
. The turn signals are not operated.
. The windshield wiper is not operated
in the high speed position (the Steer-
ing Assist function is disabled after the
wiper operates for approximately 10
seconds in the high speed position).

When the Steering Assist is in operation,
the Steering Assist status indicator, the
Steering Assist indicator, and the lane
marker indicatorandon the vehicle
information display turn green. A chime
sounds when the Steering Assist initially
activates.
When the Steering Assist deactivates, the
Steering Assist status indicator
, the
Steering Assist indicator, and the lane
marker indicatorandon the vehicle
information display turn gray and a chime
sounds twice.
Intelligent Lane Intervention (I-LI)
With the Steering Assist active, when a
curve or strong cross wind exceeds the
capabilities of the system and your vehi-
cle approaches either the left or the right
side of the traveling lane, the I-LI system
will flash the I-LI indicator on the vehicle
information display and provide steering
wheel vibration to alert the driver. The
warning chime will also sound (4 rapid
beeps). Then, the I-LI system automati-
cally applies the brakes for a short period
of time to help assist the driver to return
the vehicle to the center of the traveling
lane. This action is in addition to any
Steering Assist actions and the warnings
cannot be turned off. For more informa-
tion, see “Intelligent Lane Intervention (I-
LI)” (P.5-51).WAF0639X
Hands on detection
When the Steering Assist is activated, it
monitors the driver’s steering wheel op-
eration.
If the steering wheel is not operated or
the driver takes his/her hands off the
steering wheel for a period of time, the
warning
appears in the vehicle infor-
mation display and the hands OFF warn-
ing light
illuminates.
If the driver does not operate the steering
wheel after the warning has been dis-
played and the warning light illuminated,
an audible alert sounds and both the
warning and the warning light flash. If the
driver still does not operate the steering wheel, the system applies a momentary
brake application to request the driver to
take control of the vehicle again.
If the driver still does not respond, the
system turns on the hazard flasher and
slows the vehicle to a complete stop.
The driver can cancel the deceleration at
any time by steering, braking, accelerat-
ing, or operating the ProPILOT Assist
switch.
WARNING
Steering Assist is not a system for a
hands-free driving. Always keep your
hands on the steering wheel and
drive your vehicle safely. Failure to
do so could cause a collision result-
ing in serious personal injury or
death.
NOTE:
If the driver lightly touches (instead of
firmly grips) the steering wheel, the
steering torque sensor may not detect
the driver’s hand(s) on the steering
wheel and a sequence of warnings
may occur. When the driver holds and
operates the steering wheel again, the
warnings turn off.
