Acura RLX Adaptive Cruise Control with Low Speed Follow 2019 Sedan Specification

The 2019 Acura RLX Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low Speed Follow is an advanced driver-assist technology designed to enhance driving convenience and safety. This system utilizes a combination of radar and camera sensors to monitor the traffic conditions ahead, enabling the vehicle to maintain a consistent speed and a set following distance from the car in front. Upon detecting slower traffic, ACC automatically adjusts the RLX's speed by decelerating and even applying the brakes if necessary. The Low Speed Follow feature extends the functionality of ACC by allowing the vehicle to manage stop-and-go traffic conditions. When traffic comes to a halt, the system can bring the RLX to a complete stop and then resume driving as traffic begins to move again, without requiring driver intervention. This technology alleviates the stress of driving in heavy traffic while ensuring a safe following distance is consistently maintained. The system is seamlessly integrated with the RLX's other safety features, including Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) and Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS), to provide comprehensive driver support. The ACC with Low Speed Follow is operated through easily accessible controls on the steering wheel, and its status is displayed on the vehicle's multi-information display, keeping the driver informed at all times. This advanced technology exemplifies Acura's commitment to enhancing driving pleasure and safety through innovative engineering.

The system may deactivate if the sensors are obstructed by dirt or debris, or if it detects a malfunction. Clean the sensors and ensure they are not blocked. If the problem continues, have the system inspected by a professional.

What maintenance is required for the Adaptive Cruise Control system?

Regularly clean the radar sensor and camera located at the front of the vehicle to ensure optimal performance. Avoid placing any objects in front of the sensor. Routine inspections during scheduled maintenance can also help prevent issues.

Can the Adaptive Cruise Control system detect stationary objects?

The system primarily detects moving vehicles. It may not reliably detect stationary objects, so drivers should always remain attentive and be prepared to take manual control if necessary.
