the accelerator pedal or the service brake.
This lets Collision Mitigation know that the
triggering event has been acknowledged.
To prevent abuse of this emergency
feature, after three Collision Mitigation
braking events, ACC and Collision
Mitigation will be disabled until the next
time the ignition switch is cycled. This is to
prevent using Collision Mitigation
irresponsibly or in a manner for which it
was not intended. Please read the ADAS
operator’s manual specific for your vehicle
to become familiar with the limitations of
Collision Mitigation (Automated Emergency
Braking).
Predictive Cruise Control (Option)
Predictive Cruise Control (PCC) uses
satellite technology and GPS maps to look
at upcoming roads to dynamically calculate
optimal fuel-efficient speed over a given
terrain.
NOTE
There are many other factors that may
influence the overall fuel economy of
your vehicle (i.e., head wind and slope
terrain, etc.).
Predictive Cruise Control operates similarly
to standard cruise control. With PCC,
vehicle speed is maintained without
holding down the accelerator and can be
used at 19 mph (30 km/h) or more.
PCC will also actively recalculate and
change the target cruising speed for best
fuel economy rather than maintaing a
constant set speed. The range of the PCC
target cruise speed is defined by an
overshoot and undershoot speed values.
These values are adjustable by the
operator.
NOTE
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) has the
ability to override Eco cruise. This is
because ACC is designed to deceler-
ate the vehicle to match the speed of
traffic in front of the ACC equipped
truck.
PCC Behavior
As the vehicle approaches the top of a hill,
PCC will decrease the vehicle speed (up to
8%below the set speed) to prevent the
vehicle from exceeding the set speed while
traveling downhill. This will result in a
smoother, more fuel efficient ride as the
vehicle approaches the crest of the hill.
Once over the crest, momentum takes over
and the system allows a predetermined
amount of speed over the set speed.
PCC can also activate Neutral Coast (NC)
mode. NC mode disengages the vehicle's
driveline, reducing fuel consumption while
maintaining overall vehicle speed. Once
the vehicle can no longer maintain speed
while coasting, NC is deactivated and the
driveline re-engages.
If the driver has activated one of the
vehicle's retarder systems (Engine,
transmission, or driveline), the vehicle
speed may increase until it reaches the
cruise control set speed plus the retarder
offset. For more information about engine
retarders, see your vehicle Operator's
Manual.
