DESCRIPTION

Outline
The Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC) system automatically maintains a selected distance from the vehicle ahead according to that vehicle's speed, or at the set speed, if the road ahead is clear.

The ICC function has two cruise control modes and brake assist (with preview function).

VEHICLE-TO-VEHICLE DISTANCE CONTROL MODE
Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode, the driver can maintain the same speed as other vehicles without the constant need to adjust the set speed as you would with a normal cruise control system.

The system is intended to enhance the operation of the vehicle when following the vehicle traveling in the same lane and direction.

If the distance sensor detects a slower moving vehicle ahead, the system will reduce speed so that the vehicle ahead can be followed at the selected distance.

The system automatically controls the throttle and applies the brakes (up to 25% of vehicle braking power) if necessary.

The detection range of the sensor is approximately 390 ft (120 m) ahead.

Refer to Owner's Manual for Intelligent Cruise Control System operating instructions.

CONVENTIONAL (FIXED SPEED) CRUISE CONTROL MODE
Conventional (fixed speed) cruise control mode is cruising at preset speeds.
Refer to Owner's Manual for Intelligent Cruise Control System operating instructions.

BRAKE ASSIST (WITH PREVIEW FUNCTION)
When the force applied to brake pedal exceeds a certain level, the Brake Assist is activated and generates a greater braking force than that of a conventional brake booster even with light pedal force.

When the Preview Function identifies the need to apply the sudden brake by sensing the vehicle ahead in the same lane and the distance and relative speed from it, it applies the brake pre-pressure before driver depress the brake pedal and improves brake response by reducing its free play.

Refer to Owner's Manual for BRAKE ASSIST (WITH PREVIEW FUNCTION) operating instructions.
