switch once, then turn on the system again.
Always confirm the setting in the vehicle informa-
tion display.
WARNING
In the conventional (fixed speed) cruise
control mode, a warning chime will not
sound to warn you if you are too close
to the vehicle ahead.
Pay special attention to the distance
between your vehicle and the vehicle
ahead of you or a collision could occur.
For the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode,
see the following description. For the conven-
tional (fixed speed) cruise control mode, see
“Conventional (fixedspeed) cruisecontrol mode”
later in this section.
VEHICLE-TO-VEHICLE DISTANCE
CONTROL MODE
In the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode,
the Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC) system auto-
matically maintains a selected distance from the
vehicle in front of you according to that vehicle’s
speed, up to the set speed or at the set speed
when the road ahead is clear.
With ICC, the driver can maintain the same
speed as other vehicles without the constant
need to adjust the speed as you would with a
normal cruise control system.
