Changing the set speed
There are three ways to change the set speed:
1. Accelerate or brake to the required speed and press the
‘SET +’ button (
B
).
2. Increase or decrease the speed by pressing and holding either
the ‘SET +’ (
B
) or ‘–’ (
G
) button until the required set speed
is shown on the message centre. The vehicle speed will
gradually change to the selected speed.
3. Increase or decrease the speed in steps of 2 km/h (1 mph) by
briefly pressing the ‘SET +’ (
B
) or ‘–’ (
G
) button.
The ACC may apply the brakes to slow down the vehicle to the
new set speed. The new set speed will be displayed on the
message centre for four seconds after it has been changed.
Changing the gap
The distance (time gap) from the vehicle ahead can be decreased
or increased by pressing the buttons (
D
) or (
F
) on the steering
wheel. The selected gap will be displayed on the message centre
when either button is pressed as shown below:
Gap selected Display
Maximum (default) <----->
Intermediate <--->
Minimum <->
After the ignition is switched ON the maximum gap will be
automatically selected ready for ACC operation.
Note:
It is the driver’s responsibility to select a gap appropriate
to the driving conditions.
ACC automatic switch off
Adaptive cruise control will disengage, but not clear the
memory when:
• the CANCEL button (
G
) is pressed.
• the brake pedal is pressed.
• the vehicle speed falls below 24 km/h.
• Neutral, Park or Reverse gear positions are selected.
• traction control is activated.
Adaptive cruise control will disengage, and clear the memory
when:
• the ON/OFF switch (
A
) is set to off.
• the ignition switch is set to position ‘0’.
• the handbrake is applied.
• maximum vehicle speed is reached.
• if a fault occurs in the ACC system.
Resuming the set speed/follow mode
By pressing the resume button (
E
) after ACC has been cancelled,
for example, after braking, the ACC will become active again
provided that the set speed memory has not been erased. The
set speed will be displayed for four seconds and the original set
speed will be resumed, unless a vehicle ahead causes the follow
mode to become active.
Caution: ‘RESUME’ should only be used if the driver is
aware of the set speed and intends to return to it.
