Once ACC is engaged and the cruise
speed is set, the ACC symbol ( )
will appear in the Head-Up Display
(HUD) display along with the set
speed. Use the GAP button on the
steering wheel to set the follow
distance. Press the + or – symbol
on the steering wheel to increase
or decrease the follow distance.
The vehicle ahead symbol ( )
will appear on the HUD when
a vehicle in your path is moving
slowly enough for the ACC to
respond. ACC will adjust speed
and maintain the set gap. The
ACC may also apply limited
braking if necessary.
Increase, Decrease or
Resume Speed
Push the switch to the +
position to increase a set speed.
Press the button at the end of
the lever to decrease a set speed.

after braking.
Passing Another Vehicle
If you need to pass a vehicle, use
the accelerator pedal. With your
foot on the pedal, the ACC system
cannot automatically apply the
brakes. When you remove your foot
from the accelerator, ACC will
return to normal operation.

Note: ACC may not detect stationary or
slow-moving objects that suddenly appear
in your lane, and may even accelerate
toward these objects. Always give your
complete attention to driving and be
prepared to take appropriate action in
all situations.
DRIVER SHIFT CONTROL
Driver Shift Control (DSC) is an
innovative feature that combines
the convenience of an automatic
transmission with the feel of a
high-performance manual.
In the Automatic Overdrive position,
the transmission will shift in the
customary fashion. To use the DSC
manual mode, move the shift lever
to the left. For a crisp upshift, tap
the shift lever forward and release.
To downshift, tap the lever
rearward and release. Your selected
gear will appear in the HUD.
