  1. PROBLEM SYMPTOM CONFIRMATION

    Tip:

    The dynamic radar cruise control system has two 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 that for a conventional cruise control system.


    1. A019ON4E01

      Inspect the SET function.

      Table 1. Text in Illustration
      *1 ON/OFF
      *2 - SET

      1. Turn the main switch on.

      2. Check that the cruise main indicator light (vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode) illuminates on the combination meter assembly.

      3. Drive at a speed between approximately 50 km/h (31 mph) and 170 km/h (105 mph).

      4. A019PJME01

        Push the cruise control main switch to - SET.

        Table 2. Text in Illustration
        *1

        Radar Cruise Indicator Light

        (Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode)
        *2 Multi-information Display
        *3 "SET" Indicator

      5. Check that "SET" is indicated on the multi-information display.

      6. After releasing the switch, check that the vehicle cruises at the set speed.

    2. A019N6VE01

      Inspect the + (ACCEL) function.

      Table 3. Text in Illustration
      *1 ON/OFF
      *2 - SET
      *3 + RES

      1. Turn the main switch on.

      2. Drive at a speed between approximately 50 km/h (31 mph) and 170 km/h (105 mph).

      3. Push the cruise control main switch to - SET.

      4. Check that vehicle speed increases while the cruise control main switch is pushed to + RES, and that the vehicle cruises at the newly set speed when the switch is released.

      5. For Europe

        Push the cruise control main switch to + RES and then release it immediately. Check that vehicle speed increases* (tap-up control).

        Tip:

        *: Constant speed control mode: increases by approximately 1.6 km/h (1.0 mph); vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode: increases by approximately 5 km/h or 5 mph.

        [Example: 62 → 65 → 70 km/h (or mph)]

      6. Except Europe

        Push the cruise control main switch to + RES and then release it immediately. Check that vehicle speed increases* (tap-up control).

        Tip:

        *: Constant speed control mode: increases by approximately 1.6 km/h (1.0 mph); vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode: increases by approximately 1 km/h or 1 mph.

    3. A019ON4E01

      Inspect the - (COAST) function.

      Table 4. Text in Illustration
      *1 ON/OFF
      *2 - SET

      1. Turn the main switch on.

      2. Drive at a speed between approximately 50 km/h (31 mph) and 170 km/h (105 mph).

      3. Push the cruise control main switch to - SET.

      4. Check that vehicle speed decreases while the cruise control main switch is pushed to - SET, and the vehicle cruises at the newly set speed when the switch is released.

      5. For Europe

        Push the cruise control main switch to - SET, and then release it immediately. Check that vehicle speed decreases* (tap-down control).

        Tip:

        *: Constant speed control mode: decreases by approximately 1.6 km/h (1.0 mph); vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode: decreases by approximately 5 km/h or 5 mph.

        [Example: 82 → 80 → 75 km/h (or mph)]

      6. Except Europe

        Push the cruise control main switch to - SET, and then release it immediately. Check that vehicle speed decreases* (tap-down control).

        Tip:

        *: Constant speed control mode: decreases by approximately 1.6 km/h (1.0 mph); vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode: decreases by approximately 1 km/h or 1 mph.

    4. A019MGXE01

      Inspect the CANCEL function.

      Table 5. Text in Illustration
      *1 ON/OFF
      *2 - SET
      *3 CANCEL

      1. Turn the main switch on.

      2. Drive at a speed between approximately 50 km/h (31 mph) and 170 km/h (106 mph).

      3. Push the cruise control main switch to - SET.

      4. When performing any one of the following, check that the cruise control system is canceled and that the normal driving mode is reset.


        • Depressing the brake pedal

        • Selecting the 3rd, 2nd, or 1st range with the shift lever in S

        • Selecting the 3rd, 2nd, or 1st range using the transmission shift switch with the shift lever in D*

        • Turning the main switch off

        • Pulling the cruise control main switch to CANCEL


        • *: w/ Shift Paddle Switch

    5. A019N6VE01

      Inspect the RES (RESUME) function.

      Table 6. Text in Illustration
      *1 ON/OFF
      *2 - SET
      *3 + RES

      1. Turn the main switch on.

      2. Drive at a speed between approximately 50 km/h (31 mph) and 170 km/h (106 mph).

      3. Push the cruise control main switch to - SET.

      4. Cancel the cruise control system by performing any of the above operations (other than turning the main switch off).

      5. After pushing the cruise control main switch to "+ RES" at a driving speed of more than approximately 40 km/h (25 mph), check that the vehicle resumes the speed set prior to the cancellation and that "SET" is also displayed on the multi-information display.

        Tip:

        The stored vehicle speed is retained even if vehicle speed drops below approximately 40 km/h (25 mph) once. The previously stored vehicle speed can be resumed by pushing the cruise control main switch to + RES when vehicle speed returns to approximately 40 km/h (25 mph) or more.
