HINT: 

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. Inspect the SET function.

   *1	ON-OFF
   *2	-SET

   1. Turn the cruise control on using the main switch.
   2. Drive at the required speed (50 km/h (30 mph) or higher).
   3. Push the cruise control main switch to -SET.
   4. After releasing the switch, check that the vehicle cruises at the set speed.
2. Inspect the + (ACCEL) function.

   *1	ON-OFF
   *2	+RES

   1. Turn the cruise control on using the main switch.
   2. Drive at the required speed (50 km/h (30 mph) or higher).
   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. Push the cruise control main switch to +RES and then release it immediately. Check that vehicle speed increases* (tap-up control).

      HINT: 

      *: 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	ON-OFF
   *2	-SET

   1. Turn the cruise control on using the main switch.
   2. Drive at the required speed (50 km/h (30 mph) or higher).
   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. Push the cruise control main switch to -SET, and then release it immediately. Check that vehicle speed decreases* (tap-down control).

      HINT: 

      *: 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	ON-OFF
   *2	CANCEL

   1. Turn the cruise control on using the main switch.
   2. Drive at the required speed (50 km/h (30 mph) or higher).
   3. Push the cruise control main switch to -SET.
   4. When performing any one of the following, check that cruise control operation is canceled and that the normal driving mode returns.
      • Depressing the brake pedal
      • Moving the shift lever from D or S to the others
      • Selecting 3rd, 2nd or 1st range with the shift lever in S
      • Selecting 3rd, 2nd or 1st range with the shift paddle switch
      • Pulling the cruise control main switch to CANCEL
      • Turning the cruise control main switch off
5. Inspect the RES (RESUME) function.

   *1	ON-OFF
   *2	+RES

   1. Turn the cruise control on using the main switch.
   2. Drive at the required speed (50 km/h (30 mph) or higher).
   3. Push the cruise control main switch to -SET.
   4. Cancel cruise control operation 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 speed of more than 40 km/h (25 mph), check that the vehicle resumes the speed set prior to the cancellation.

      HINT: 

      The stored vehicle speed is retained even if vehicle speed drops below 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.
