Automatic decreases in vehicle speed and engagement of brakes are normal parts of the system
Once traffic clears, the system automatically returns to cruise Set speed and normal speed-control function.
If the sensors are blocked by rain, snow, mud or damage, the driver receives an error message
Manually applying the brake pedal, the system is canceled, returning full control of the vehicle to the driver, just as with conventional cruise control
