Notification to Resume ACC
ACC will maintain a follow gap
behind a detected vehicle and slow
your vehicle to a stop behind that
vehicle.
If the vehicle ahead has driven
away and ACC has not resumed,
the vehicle ahead symbol will flash
as a reminder. In addition, the left
and right sides of the Safety Alert
Seat will pulse three times, or three
beeps will sound. See ”Alert Type”
and “Go Notifier” in “Collision/
Detection Systems” under Vehicle
Personalization on page 5‑45.
When the vehicle ahead drives
away, press RES+ or the
accelerator pedal to resume cruise
control. If stopped for more than
two minutes or if the driver door is
opened and the driver safety belt is

parking brake status light will turn
on. See Electric Parking Brake on
