Help! Cruise Control how to switch to Adaptive?

[nomnom]

Hi everyone

So I bought my Jazz 16 plate CVT recently and I was playing around with the buttons...somehow I turned off the adaptive cruise control! So now it's in normal cruise control so it doesn't keep a certain distance behind!

I want to switch back to adaptive cruise control from the normal cruise and I have tried everything... I've looked in the manual which doesn't say anything about it, and googling...YouTube just says to hold the distance button for a second but my car doesn't have a distance button!

To sum up: how on earth do you switch to adaptive cruise control!?

Thanks

I don't believe the Mk3 Jazz has adaptive cruise control...my 2016 doesn't.

The three modes turned on by the main cruise control button are
conventional cruise control
Speed limiter to speed you set
Inteligent limiter sets to speed of last seen road sign.

It might have been introduced in the 1.5 models?

Are you sure because I am sure when I bought it driving home I could see the distance lines for the cruise control lines image. Then I pressed something and it said normal cruise control selected.

The 67 plate SE, that I had on loan, didn't have adaptive cruise control.

I would love for you to be correct!  where were you seeing the "cruise control lines image"

I think it can be enabled somehow in the settings. I am 100% sure I saw the exact three lines for distance on the dash. Then whatever I pressed switched it to manual cruise.

If there's someone with more knowledge than me who can investigate this in the settings that would be cool.

Have you switched off the Forward Collision Control?

Have you switched off the Forward Collision Control?

No I've not done that.

I can't remember exactly where I saw the three lines but it might have been on the little screen on the right or the main one. It definitely said in the main screen 'cruise control' when I switched to it by mistake. I definitely think there's a way guys.

Also this website says the Jazz 2018 CVT and diesel has adaptive cruise control. Not mentioned about 2016 model. Maybe the 2016 CVT has ACC?

I have my manual as a searchable PDF and "adaptive" doesn't come up with anything.

Could yours be an import model perhaps?

No it's a UK model. I think the last owner managed to find a way to activate it but I can't contact them now to ask how. I'm really convinced about this!

I can tell that! I hope you are right! I am pretty tech minded and have explored every feature of my car in the three years I have had it, including ones I never use. I would really like ACC.

There are some pretty knowledgeable people on this forum who haven't chipped in yet so maybe more info will emerge.

I assume you have found this page:

https://owners.honda.com/vehicles/information/2018/Fit/features/Adaptive-Cruise-Control/2

Not sure what country it applies to (not UK because of "Fit" not "Jazz")

My Jazz does not have the "Interval" button, which has three lines on it...does yours?

The article tells you how to switch between ACC and Standard control...press and hold the interval button.

I don't have the interval button either that's why I was wondering why I saw it. If you think about it the Jazz has all the sensors to have ACC. The collision warning, lane departure etc.

I remember the last owner said he was an engineer!

Is it possible Honda were planning to put ACC in the MK3, but later decided against it probably to make people buy the more expensive Civic. So disabled it in the software?
