Road Test

HINT:

The dynamic laser 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 laser cruise control system.
• Operation of the constant speed control mode is the same as that for the conventional type cruise control system.

   5. Momentarily push the cruise control main switch to RES/ACC and then immediately release it. Check that vehicle speed increases (*1) (Tap-up function).

      *1: Constant speed control mode: increases by 1.6 km/h (1.0 mph), Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode: increases by 5 km/h (5 mph)

3. Inspect the COAST function.
   1. Push the ON-OFF button on.
   2. Drive at the required speed (45 km/h (28 mph) or higher).
   3. Push the cruise control main switch to SET/COAST.
   4. Check that vehicle speed decreases while the cruise control main switch is pushed to SET/COAST, and the vehicle cruises at the newly set speed when the switch is released.

   5. Momentarily push the cruise control main switch to SET/COAST, and then immediately release it. Check that vehicle speed decreases (*1) (Tap-down function).

      *1: Constant speed control mode: decreases by 1.6 km/h (1.0 mph), Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode: decreases by 5 km/h (5 mph)

4. Inspect the CANCEL function.
   1. Push the ON-OFF button on.
   2. Drive at the required speed (45 km/h (28 mph) or higher).
   3. Push the cruise control main switch to SET/COAST.
   4. When doing one of the following, check that the cruise control system is cancelled and that the normal driving mode is reset.
      • Depressing the brake pedal
      • Moving the shift lever to any position except D (6th, 5th, and 4th gears)
      • Pushing the ON-OFF button off

   1. Push the ON-OFF button on.
   2. Drive at the required speed (40 km/h (25 mph) or higher).
   3. Push the cruise control main switch to SET/COAST.
   4. When doing one of the following, check that the cruise control system is cancelled and that the normal driving mode is reset.
      • Depressing the brake pedal
      • Moving the shift lever to any position except D (6th, 5th, and 4th gears)
      • Pulling the cruise control main switch to CANCEL

   5. After pushing the cruise control main switch to RES/ACC at a driving speed of more than 40 km/h (25 mph), check that the vehicle restores the speed prior to the cancellation.

      HINT:

      RESUME function (in the Vehicle-to-vehicle Distance Control Mode only)

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