HINT:
The dynamic radar cruise control system has 2 cruise control modes: the constant speed control mode and vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode.
- The vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is always selected when starting up the dynamic radar cruise control system.
- Operation of the constant speed control mode is the same as the cruise control system.
- INSPECT SET SWITCH
- Push the cruise control switch ON.
- Constant speed control mode:
Drive the vehicle at a desired speed (between 40 km/h and 200 km/h [25 mph and 125 mph]).
- Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode:
Drive the vehicle at a desired speed (between 40 km/h and 135 km/h [25 mph and 85 mph]).
- Press the cruise control switch to SET/COAST.
- Check that the vehicle cruises at the desired speed.
- INSPECT "+" SWITCH
- Push the cruise control switch ON.
- Constant speed control mode:
Drive the vehicle at a desired speed (between 40 km/h and 200 km/h [25 mph and 125 mph]).
- Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode:
Drive the vehicle at a desired speed (between 40 km/h and 135 km/h [25 mph and 85 mph]).
- Press the cruise control switch to SET/COAST.
- Check that vehicle speed increases while the cruise control switch is pushed to RES/ACC, and that the vehicle cruises at the set speed when the released.
- Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode:
Momentarily press the control switch to SET/COAST, and then immediately release it. Check that the vehicle speed decreases by about 1 km/h or 1 mph (Tap-down function).
- Constant speed control mode:
Momentarily press the control switch to SET/COAST, and then immediately release it. Check that the vehicle speed decreases by about 1.6 km/h (1 mph) (Tap-down function).
- INSPECT "-" SWITCH
- Push the cruise control switch ON.
- Constant speed control mode:
Drive the vehicle at a desired speed (between 40 km/h and 200 km/h [25 mph and 125 mph]).
- Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode:
Drive the vehicle at a desired speed (between 40 km/h and 135 km/h [25 mph and 85 mph]).
- Press the cruise control switch to SET/COAST.
- Check that vehicle speed decreases while the cruise control switch is pressed to SET/COAST, and the vehicle cruises at the set speed when the released.
- Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode:
Momentarily press the control switch to SET/COAST, and then immediately release it. Check that the vehicle speed decreases by about 1 km/h or 1 mph (Tap-down function).
- Constant speed control mode:
Momentarily press the control switch to SET/COAST, and then immediately release it. Check that the vehicle speed decreases by about 1.6 km/h (1 mph) (Tap-down function).
- INSPECT CANCEL SWITCH
- Push the cruise control switch ON.
- Constant speed control mode:
Drive the vehicle at a desired speed (between 40 km/h and 200 km/h [25 mph and 125 mph]).
- Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode:
Drive the vehicle at a desired speed (between 40 km/h and 135 km/h [25 mph and 85 mph]).
- Press the cruise control switch to SET/COAST.
- When operating one of the following, check that the cruise control system is canceled.
- Depressing the brake pedal
- Moving the shift lever to any position except D or S (8th, 7th, 6th, 5th or 4th gear)
- w/ Shift Paddle Switch:
The transmission is changed from 4th gear to 3rd, 2nd or 1st gear with the shift paddle switch while the shift lever is in D or M.
- Pushing the cruise control switch OFF
- Pulling the cruise control switch to CANCEL
- INSPECT RES (RESUME) SWITCH
- Push the cruise control switch ON.
- Constant speed control mode:
Drive the vehicle at a desired speed (between 40 km/h and 200 km/h [25 mph and 125 mph]).
- Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode:
Drive the vehicle at a desired speed (between 40 km/h and 135 km/h [25 mph and 85 mph]).
- Press the cruise control switch to SET/COAST.
- Cancel the cruise control system by performing any of the operations below.
- Depressing the brake pedal
- Moving the shift lever to any position except D or S (8th, 7th, 6th, 5th or 4th gear)
- w/ Shift Paddle Switch:
The shift lever is moved from the D (4th gear) to D (3rd, 2nd, 1st gear) with the shift paddle switch.
- Pulling the cruise control switch to CANCEL
- After the cruise control switch is pressed to RES/ACC at a driving speed of more than 40 km/h (25 mph), check that the vehicle restores the speed before the cancellation.
