speed. Whilst in the car following cruise mode, you  
can follow the vehicle ahead to a stop, if the amount  
of time that the vehicle is in a stopped condition is  
less than approximately 3 seconds your vehicle may  
automatically pull away to follow the vehicle ahead, if  
the stopped time exceeds 3 seconds your car will not  
automatically pull away, you will receive a prompt in  
the instrument pack message centre requesting you  
to re-activate the adaptive cruise control using the  
method displayed.  
Whilst using the car following cruise  
function it is strongly recommended that  
the driver does not touch the accelerator  
pedal. Any activation of the accelerator  
will not allow the system to automatically  
apply the brakes should this be necessary.  
DO NOT exit the vehicle when the ACC  
car following cruise function has stopped,  
or is keeping the car stationary. Before  
exiting the car the shift control lever  
should be in the Park position, the parking  
brake applied and the power switch in  
the OFF position.

After following the vehicle ahead to a  
stop, the driver must observe any local  
traffic laws and ensure that there are no  
obstacles or other traffic participants,  
such as pedestrians, directly in front of  
the vehicle before allowing it to pull away  
and begin to follow the vehicle ahead  
again.  
If the ACC system has already stopped the  
vehicle, and the ACC function is disabled,  
turned off or cancelled, the vehicle will  
no longer stay still, it may move forward  
or slip backward. When the vehicle is  
stopped and kept still by the ACC system,  
be sure to be ready to apply the brakes  
manually.

and traffic and road conditions.
