Overriding the Set Speed
 WARNING: If you override the system by pressing the accelerator pedal, it does not automatically apply the brakes to maintain a gap from any vehicle ahead. |
When you press the accelerator pedal, you override the set speed and gap distance.
Use the accelerator pedal to intentionally exceed the set speed limit.
When you override the system, the green indicator illuminates and the vehicle icon does not appear in the instrument cluster display.
The system resumes operation when you release the accelerator pedal. The vehicle speed decreases to the set speed, or a lower speed if following a slower vehicle.

Adaptive Cruise Not Available Sensor Blocked See Manual |
You have a blocked radar because of poor radar visibility due to inclement weather or ice, mud, or water in front of the sensor. You can typically clean the sensor to resolve this issue. Due to the nature of sensor technology, it is possible to get a blockage warning with no actual block. This happens, for example, when driving in sparse rural or desert environments. A false blocked condition either self clears, or clears after you restart your vehicle. | |

You have selected normal cruise control. The system does not brake or react to traffic. | |
