CHIME DOES NOT SOUND
CHIME DOES NOT SOUND
Diagnosis ProcedureINFOID:0000000003776965
The chime may not sound occasionally in the following cases even if the distance from the vehicle ahead is
short:
• When the speed difference from that of the vehicle ahead is small (both vehicles driving at similar speed).
• When the vehicle ahead drives at faster s peed (the actual distance is increasing).
• When depressing the accelerator.
• Chime does not sound when the vehicle is not driving.
• Chime does not sound when the system does not detect any vehicle ahead. Diagnose the conditions under which the system is detecting the vehicle ahead and when the system is malfunctioning. If there is any mal-
function in detecting the vehicle ahead. Refer to CCS-64, "
Diagnosis Procedure".
1.CHECK ICC WARNING CHIME
Check warning chime operation.
Did the ICC warning chime fail to operate?
YES >> Determine preceding vehicle detection status when malfunction occurred. If chime should have sounded replace ICC unit. Refer to CCS-70, "
ICC Unit". Perform ICC system running test. Refer
to CCS-8, "
ACTION TEST : ICC System Running Test".
NO >> GO TO 2
2.CAN COMMUNICATION INSPECTION
1. With -self-diagnosis, check “CAN COMM CIRCUIT”.
Does "CAN COMM CIRCUIT" display with self-diagnosis?
YES >> Refer to CCS-24, "DTC 20 CAN COMM CIRCUIT".
NO >> Replace combination meter. Refer to MWI-102, "
Removal and Installation". Erase DTC and per-
form ICC system running test. Refer to CCS-8, "
ACTION TEST : ICC System Running Test".

PRECAUTIONS FOR VEHICLE-TO-VEHICLE DISTANCE CONTROL MODE
• Intelligent Cruise Control is functionally limited. This never support careless driving and low visibility (rain,fog, etc.). Drive the vehicle safely. Keep a safe di stance between vehicles by decreasing the vehicle speed
according to the driving condition etc.
• Intelligent Cruise Control never stop the vehicle autom atically. Intelligent Cruise Control is automatically
released, and the buzzer sounds if any vehicle ahead is not detected when the vehicle speed is approxi-
mately 35 km (21.5 MPH) or less.
• Use this system when the vehicle speed does not extr emely change. This system may not properly function
when any vehicle cuts in, or when the vehicle ahead s uddenly applies the brake. Then, the warning (buzzer
and indication) activates.
• Never use Intelligent Cruise Control in the following conditions.
- A well-trafficed road, and a tight turn. It may cause any accident because the dr iving does not fit to the road condition.
- A slippery road (e.g., freezing, or snowy road) The vehicle may lose the control by wheelspin.
- The vehicle drives in bad whet her (rain, fog, snow etc.).
The distance from the vehicle ahead is not detected pr ecisely if the whether condition is bad. Intelligent
Cruise Control is released automatically if the wiper activates in low or high speed.
- The vehicle receives bright light (sunshine etc.). The distance from the vehicle ahead is not detected pr ecisely if bright light enters in the vehicle.
- Raindrop or snow is on the sensor.
The distance from the vehicle ahead is not detected prec isely if raindrop or snow attaches on the sensor.
- A steep downhill The setting vehicle speed may exceed if Intelligent Cruise Control does not detect the vehicle ahead. The
brake may heat up in the vehicle- to-vehicle distance control mode.
- A repeated uphill and downhill Intelligent Cruise Control may not detect the vehicl e ahead precisely. An accident may occur by tailgating.
- Maintaining proper vehicle distance is difficult due to frequent acceleration/deceleration. It may cause any accident because the driving does not fit to the road condition if keeping a proper vehicle-
to-vehicle distance is difficult.
- When entering in the highway interchange (swerving off the main line),
Unexpected accident may cause if the vehicle ahead drives slower
than the preset vehicle speed. T he vehicle-to-vehicle distance con-
trol mode accelerates automatically because the vehicle ahead is
not detected on the lane if the own vehicle or the vehicle ahead
changes the lane.
• Intelligent Cruise Control does not activate to the parking vehicles, and vehicles driving extremely slow er than the own vehicle. Never
hit the vehicle stopping at a tollgate, or the tail end of traffic jam.
• Intelligent Cruise Control does not activate to the vehicle edging way, and non-vehicle objects (passengers etc.).
• This function detects the reflector of the vehicle ahead. Intelligent Cruise Control may not detect the vehicle
ahead, and keep a proper vehicle-to-vehicle distance in t he following conditions. Drive the vehicle according
to the driving condition.
- The vehicle ahead installs the reflector higher (trailer etc.).
- The rear of the vehicle ahead is extremely dirt.
- The vehicle ahead or vehicle on other lanes splashes water or snow on the road.
- The vehicle ahead provides dark exhaust gas. Smoke blocks the visibility.
- The vehicle ahead attaches film on the reflector. The v ehicle ahead does not install the reflector. The reflec-
tor is broken.
- Extremely heavy load is on the rear seat or in the cargo area.
- The vehicle drives on a repeated uphill and downhill
