(1) CRUISE indicator
(2) SET indicator
(3) Set speed
(4) Vehicle-to-vehicle distance
The smart cruise control system allows you to program the vehicle to maintain
a set speed so long as it is not limited by traffic. When traffic is encountered
the vehicle will slow down to maintain a set distance behind traffic without depressing
the accelerator or brake pedal.
WARNING
- If the smart cruise control is left on, (CRUISE indicator light in the
instrument cluster illuminated) the smart cruise control can be activated unintentionally.
Keep the smart cruise control system off (CRUISE indicator light OFF) when the
smart cruise control is not in use, to avoid inadvertently setting a speed.
- Use the smart cruise control system only when traveling on open highways
in good weather.
- Do not use the smart cruise control when it may not be safe to keep the
car at a constant speed, for instance, driving in heavy or varying traffic,
or on slippery (rainy, icy or snow-covered) or winding roads or over 6% up-hill
or down-hill roads.
- Pay particular attention to the driving conditions whenever using the
smart cruise control system.
- Be careful when driving downhill using the smart cruise control system.
- The smart cruise control system is not a substitute for safe driving
practices but a convenience function only. It is the responsibility of the driver
to always check the speed and distance to the vehicle ahead.
✽ NOTICE
During normal smart cruise control operation, when the SET switch is activated
or reactivated after applying the brakes, the smart cruise control will energize
after approximately 3 seconds. This delay is normal.
If ECS malfunction warning message comes on while driving, ECS is not working
properly.
We recommend that the system be checked by an authorized EQUUS dealer.
