Manual Description
The millimeter wave radar sensor in this system primarily detects the reflected wave from the rear end of the vehicle ahead of you to determine the presence of the vehicle ahead as well as measuring the vehicle-to-vehicle distance, d Your cruising speed is maintained at the preset speed from about 45 km/h (28 mph) to about 135 km/h (85 mph), d Your cruising speed changes in proportion to the speed of the vehicle ahead to maintain an appropriate distance from your vehicle, d If the vehicle ahead is out of the detection range, your cruising speed will be gradually increased up to the preset speed, your vehicle.

D If the vehicle ahead decelerates abruptly or other vehicles cut in ahead of you, your vehicle may be too close to the vehicle ahead you, if this occurs, the multi-information display flashes beeps, the dynamic radar cruise control should be used on roads in which sufficient vehicle-to-vehicle distance will be ensured, cruising from about 45 km/h (28 mph) to about 135 km/h (85 mph).

The wipers are operating at low speed operating, intermittently (including the same wiper operation, the driving pattern selector switch set, in the power normal position.

The automatic transmission selector lever, in the D”, 6” (sixth range), 5” (fifth range), even if these requirements are met, system may, not operate properly under certain conditions such.

See Owner's Manual Complete Information, always remain aware of the distance from the vehicle ahead and other vehicles, f Dynamic radar cruise control is not collision-avoidance system, if necessary, depress the brake pedal ensure sufficient distance.

F Dynamic radar cruise control should not be used following conditions, d In bad weather (such as rain, fog, snow, sandstorms), d Raindrops or snowflakes get in the millimeter wave radar sensor grille cover, d On slippery road surfaces (icy snow-covered road surfaces).

D Acceleration or deceleration must be repeated, d On roads with steep and short inclines declines, f This system is not provided justify careless driving, always remain aware of the distance from the vehicle ahead other vehicles.

F The dynamic radar cruise control should not be used when exiting from, or when entering or merging onto freeway, when you are following a slower moving vehicle and exiting, the sensor does not detect, the vehicle and will accelerate preset speed.

F If other vehicles are driving outside of the millimeter wave radar detection range, a delay in the detection vehicle cutting, in at short range or detection failure of the motorcycle running on the side of the same lane will occur, f The distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead cannot be accurately detected following cases, d The vehicle ahead or other vehicles around you are flinging up water snow.

D Heavy luggage is loaded in your trunk or on top of your rear seats, or is raising up the nose your vehicle, d The rear section of the vehicle ahead is extremely small such an unloaded trailer, f The millimeter wave radar sensor automatically detects dirt if it is sticking to the front of the sensor or grille cover your, however, in some cases dirt may not be detected and an appropriate vehicle-to-vehicle distance cannot be maintained.

Driving with due care vehicle ahead, f Dynamic radar cruise control does not operate when the vehicle is at a stop or driving very slowly, d Pay special attention to the very slow vehicle at the end of the line in heavy traffic or toll gate, f Turn off the main switch when dynamic radar cruise control not use.

F The approach warning may not turn on even if the the vehicle drives closer to the vehicle ahead following conditions, d Your vehicle and the vehicle ahead are cruising at almost same speed, d The vehicle ahead is cruising at a faster speed than yours, d The accelerator pedal is depressed, immediately after the release of the accelerator pedal or immediately after speed setting.

F Depending on the road configuration (curved roads) or your vehicle condition (steering wheel maneuvering, position, lane), vehicles in other lanes or surrounding objects will be detected, if there is trouble somewhere in the dynamic radar cruise control while the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode on, CRUISE”, indicator light in the instrument cluster flashes, the master warning light comes on and the warning tone sounds, and one more.

Warning messages will appear multi-information display, if any warning message shown above appears, preset, if a warning message appears on the display, take the appropriate measure referring to Section 3-1, Owner's Manual”.
