.

The ICC system does not react to

stationary and slow moving vehi-

cles.

To cancel the ProPILOT assist system, use

one of the following methods:

Always drive carefully and atten-

tively when using the ICC system.

Read and understand the Owner’s

Manual thoroughly before using

the ICC system. To avoid serious

injury or death, do not rely on the

system to prevent accidents or to

control the vehicle’s speed in

emergency situations. Do not

use the ICC system except in

appropriate road and traffic con-

ditions.

.

Push the ProPILOT assist switch to

turn the system off. The ProPILOT

assist status indicator will turn off.

.

The ICC system is only an aid to

assist the driver and is not a

collision warning or avoidance

device. It is recommended for

highway use only and it is not

intended for city driving. It is the

driver’s responsibility to stay

alert, drive safely, and be in con-

trol of the vehicle at all times.

There are limitations to the ICC

system capability. The ICC system

does not function in all driving,

traffic, weather, and road condi-

tions. It is the driver’s responsi-

bility to stay alert, drive safely,

keep the vehicle in the traveling

lane, and be in control of the

vehicle at all times.

When the ProPILOT assist system is

canceled while the vehicle is stopped,

the electronic parking brake is automati-

cally activated.

WARNING

ICC system operation

The ICC system is designed to maintain a

selected distance from the vehicle in front

of you and can reduce the speed to

match a slower vehicle ahead. The sys-

tem decelerates the vehicle as necessary

and if the vehicle ahead comes to a stop,

the vehicle decelerates to a standstill.

However, the ICC system can only apply

up to 40% of the vehicle’s total braking

power. This system should only be used

when traffic conditions allow vehicle

speeds to remain fairly constant or when

vehicle speeds change gradually. If a

vehicle moves into the traveling lane

To prevent the vehicle from moving

or rolling unexpectedly, which could

result in serious personal injury or

property damage, before exiting the

vehicle make sure to push the Pro-

PILOT assist switch to turn the sys-

tem off, place the shift lever in the P

(Park) position, and turn the engine

off.

Always observe posted speed

limits and do not set the speed

over them.

Starting and driving 5-75

CarManuals2.com

ahead or if a vehicle traveling ahead

rapidly decelerates, the distance between

vehicles may become closer because the

ICC system cannot decelerate the vehicle

quickly enough. If this occurs, the ICC

system sounds a warning chime and

blinks the system display to notify the

driver to take necessary action.

The ICC system cancels and a warning

chime sounds if the speed is below

approximately 15 MPH (24 km/h) and a

vehicle is not detected ahead.

.

When your vehicle is at a standstill for

more than 3 seconds and the vehicle

ahead begins to accelerate, push the

RES+ switch or lightly depress the

accelerator pedal. The ICC system

starts to follow the vehicle ahead.

When the vehicle traveling ahead

moves to a different traveling lane,

the ICC system accelerates and main-

tains vehicle speed up to the set

speed.

The ICC system does not control vehicle

speed or warn you when you approach

stationary and slow moving vehicles. You

must pay attention to vehicle operation

to maintain proper distance from vehicles

ahead when approaching toll gates or

traffic congestion.

The ICC system operates as follows:

.

When there are no vehicles traveling

ahead, the ICC system maintains the

speed set by the driver. The set speed

range is between approximately 20

and 90 MPH (32 and 144 km/h).

SSD0254

When driving on the freeway at a set

speed and approaching a slower traveling

vehicle ahead, the ICC system adjusts the

speed to maintain the distance, selected

by the driver, from the vehicle ahead. If

the vehicle ahead changes lanes or exits

the freeway, the ICC system accelerates

and maintains the speed up to the set

speed. Pay attention to the driving opera-

tion to maintain control of the vehicle as

it accelerates to the set speed.

.

When there is

a

vehicle traveling

ahead, the ICC system adjusts the

speed to maintain the distance, se-

lected by the driver, from the vehicle

ahead. If the vehicle ahead comes to a

stop, the vehicle decelerates to a

standstill. Once your vehicle stops,

the ICC system keeps the vehicle

stopped.

When your vehicle is stopped for less

than 3 seconds and the vehicle ahead

begins to move, your vehicle will start

moving again automatically.

The vehicle may not maintain the set

speed on winding or hilly roads. If this

occurs, you will have to manually control

the vehicle speed.

.

Normally when controlling the distance to

5-76 Starting and driving

a vehicle ahead, the system automatically

accelerates or decelerates your vehicle

according to the speed of the vehicle

ahead.

Depress the accelerator to properly ac-

celerate your vehicle when acceleration is

required for a lane change. Depress the

brake pedal when deceleration is required

to maintain a safe distance to the vehicle

ahead due to sudden braking or if a

vehicle cuts in. Always stay alert when

using the ICC system.

Vehicle detected ahead:

The driver sets the desired vehicle speed

based on the road conditions. The ICC

system maintains the set vehicle speed,

similar to standard cruise control, as long

as no vehicle is detected in the lane

ahead. The ICC system displays the set

speed.

When a vehicle is detected in the lane

ahead, the ICC system decelerates the

vehicle by controlling the throttle and

applying the brakes to match the speed

of a slower vehicle ahead. The ICC system

then controls the vehicle speed based on

the speed of the vehicle ahead to main-

tain the driver selected distance.

NOTE:

.

The stop lights of the vehicle come

on when braking is performed by

the ICC system.

When the brake is applied by the

system, a noise may be heard. This is

not a malfunction.

When the ICC system is engaged above

44 mph (70 km/h) and following a slower

vehicle (below ICC set speed), and the

turn signal is activated to the left, the ICC

system will automatically start to accel-

erate the vehicle to help initiate passing

on the left and will begin to reduce the

distance to vehicle directly ahead. Only

the left side turn signal operates this

feature. As the driver steers the vehicle

and moves into the passing lane, if no

vehicle is detected ahead the ICC system

will continue to accelerate to the ICC

system set speed. If another vehicle is

detected ahead, then the vehicle will

accelerate up to the following speed of

that vehicle. If the vehicle is not steered

NOTE:

Approach warning

The approach warning chime may

sound and the system display may

flash when the radar sensor detects

objects on the side of the vehicle or on

the side of the road. This may cause the

ICC system to decelerate or accelerate

the vehicle. The radar sensor may de-

tect these objects when the vehicle is

driven on winding, narrow, or hilly roads

or when the vehicle is entering or

exiting a curve. In these cases, you will

have to manually control the proper

distance ahead of your vehicle.

Also, the sensor sensitivity can be af-

fected by vehicle operation (steering

maneuver or driving position in the

lane) or traffic or vehicle conditions

(for example, if a vehicle is being driven

with some damage).

If your vehicle comes closer to the vehicle

ahead due to rapid deceleration of that

vehicle or if another vehicle cuts in, the

system warns the driver with the chime

with these system limitations could

result in serious injury or death:

your vehicle can automatically

accelerate if the vehicle is

stopped for less than approxi-

mately 3 seconds. Be prepared

to stop your vehicle if necessary.

Always pay attention to the op-

eration of the vehicle and be

ready to manually control the

proper following distance. The

ICC system may not be able to

maintain the selected distance

between vehicles (following dis-

tance) or selected vehicle speed

under some circumstances.

The system may not detect the

vehicle in front of you in certain

road or weather conditions. To

avoid accidents, never use the ICC

system under the following con-

ditions:

— On steep downhill roads (the

vehicle may go beyond the set

vehicle speed and frequent

braking may result in over-

heating the brakes)

— On repeated uphill and down-

hill roads

— When traffic conditions make

it difficult to keep a proper

distance between vehicles be-

cause of frequent accelera-

tion or deceleration

— Interference by other radar

sources.

In some road or traffic conditions,

a vehicle or object can unexpect-

edly come into the sensor detec-

tion zone and cause automatic

braking. Always stay alert and

avoid using the ICC system where

not recommended in this warn-

ing section.

.

The ICC system is primarily in-

tended for use on straight, dry,

open roads with light traffic. It is

not advisable to use the ICC

system in city traffic or congested

areas.

.

The ICC system will not adapt

automatically to road conditions.

This system should be used in

evenly flowing traffic. Do not use

the system on roads with sharp

curves or on icy roads, in heavy

rain or in fog.

.

As there is a performance limit to

the distance control function,

never rely solely on the ICC sys-

tem. This system does not correct

careless, inattentive or absent-

minded driving or overcome poor

visibility in rain, fog, or other bad

weather. Decelerate the vehicle

speed by depressing the brake

pedal, depending on the distance

to the vehicle ahead and the

surrounding circumstances in or-

der to maintain a safe distance

between vehicles.

— On roads with heavy, high-

speed traffic or sharp curves

— On slippery road surfaces

such as on ice or snow, etc.

— During bad weather (rain, fog,

snow, etc.)

— When rain, snow or dirt adhere

to the bumper around the

When driving on some roads, such as

winding, hilly, curved, narrow roads, or

roads which are under construction, the

radar sensor may detect vehicles in a

different lane, or may temporarily not

detect a vehicle traveling ahead. This

may cause the ICC system to decelerate

or accelerate the vehicle.

The detection of vehicles may also be

affected by vehicle operation (steering

maneuver or traveling position in the

lane, etc.) or vehicle condition.

If this occurs, the ICC system may warn

you by blinking the system indicator and

sounding the chime unexpectedly. You

will have to manually control the proper

distance away from the vehicle traveling
