Selecting the Follow Distance (GAP)
When the system detects a slower moving vehicle,
it will adjust your vehicle’s speed and maintain
the follow distance (gap) you select.
Use the GAP button on
the steering wheel to
adjust the follow
distance.
Press the top of the button to increase the
distance or the bottom of the button to decrease
the distance. The first button press will show
you the current follow distance setting on the HUD.
Your current follow distance setting will be
maintained until you change it.
There are six follow distances to choose from. The
follow distance selection ranges from near to far
(one second to two seconds follow time). The
distance maintained for a selected follow distance
will vary based on vehicle speed. The faster
the vehicle speed the further back you will follow.
Consider traffic and weather conditions when
selecting the follow distance. The range of
selectable distances may not be appropriate for all
drivers and driving conditions. If you prefer to
travel at a follow distance farther than Adaptive
Cruise Control allows, disengage the system
and drive manually.
A graphic on the HUD indicates the selected
follow distance. This picture shows a maximum
follow distance. The vehicles will move closer
together as you select a smaller follow distance.
