 The detection zone of the sensor is limited. A vehicle ahead must be in the detection zone for the system to operate.
- A vehicle ahead may move outside of the detection zone due to its
position within the same lane of travel. Motorcycles may not be
detected in the same lane ahead if they are traveling offset from
the center line of the lane. A vehicle that is entering the lane ahead
may not be detected until the vehicle has completely moved into
the lane. If this occurs, the system may warn driver by blinking the
system indicator and sounding the chime. The driver may have to
manually control the proper distance away from vehicle traveling
ahead.
- When driving on some roads, such as winding, hilly, curved, nar- row roads, or roads which are under construction, the sensor may
detect vehicles in a different lane, or may temporarily not detect a
vehicle traveling ahead. This may cause the system to work inap-
propriately. The detection of vehicles may also be affected by vehi-
cle operation (steering maneuver or traveling position in the lane,
etc.) or vehicle condition. If this occurs, the system may warn
driver by blinking the system indicator and sounding the chime
unexpectedly. The driver will have to manually control the proper
distance away from the vehicle traveling ahead.
 The approach warning chime may sound and the system display may blink when the sensor detects some reflectors which are fitted
on vehicles in other lanes or on the side of the road. This may
cause the DCA system to operate inappropriately. The sensor may
detect these reflectors when the vehicle is driven on winding
roads, hilly roads or when entering or exiting a curve. The sensor
may also detect reflectors on narrow roads or in road construction
zones. In these cases driver will have to manually control the
proper distance ahead of own vehicle. Also, the sensor sensitivity
can be affected by vehicle operation (steering maneuver or driving
position in the lane) or traffic or vehicle condition (for example, if a
vehicle is being driven with some damage).
 The DCA system automatically dec elerates own vehicle to help
assist the driver to maintain a following distance from the vehicle
ahead. Manually brake when deceleration is required to maintain a safe distance upon sudden braking by
the vehicle ahead or when a vehicle suddenly appears in front of own vehicle. Always stay alert when using
the DCA system.
 When the vehicle ahead detection indicator lamp is not illum inated, system will not control or warn the driver.
 Never place a foot under the brake pedal. A foot may be caught when the system controls the brake.
 Depending on the position of the accelerator pedal, the system may not be able to assist the driver to
release the accelerator pedal appropriately.
 If the vehicle ahead comes to a standstill, the vehicle decel erates to a standstill within the limitations of the
system. The system will rel ease brake control with a warning chime once it judges the vehicle is at a stand-
still. To prevent the vehicle from moving, the driv er must depress the brake pedal. [The system will resume
control automatically once the system reaches 5 km/h (3 MPH)].

HANDLING PRECAUTION
Precautions for Forward Collision WarningINFOID:0000000006223678
FORWARD COLLISION WARNING (FCW)
 FCW system is intended to warn the driver before a collis ion but will not avoid a collision. It is the drive's
responsibility to stay alert, drive safely and be in control of the vehicle at all times.
 As there is a performance limit, the FCW system ma y not provide a warning in certain conditions.
 The FCW system will not detect the following objects.
- Pedestrians, animals, or obstacles in the roadway.
- Oncoming vehicles in the same lane
 FCW system will not detect under the following conditions.
- When the sensor gets dirty, it is impossibl e to detect the distance from the vehicle ahead.
- When driving into a strong light (i.e. sunlight)
 The sensor generally detects signals returned from t he reflectors on a vehicle ahead. Therefore, the FCW
system may not warn properly under the following conditions:
- When the reflectors of the vehicle ahead are positioned high or close to each other (including a small vehicle such as motorcycles).
- When the sensor gets dirty or it is impossible to detect the distance to the vehicle ahead.
- When the reflectors on the vehicle ahead is missing, damaged or covered.
- When the reflector of the vehicle ahead is covered with dirt, snow or road spray.
- When visibility is low (such as rain, fog, snow, etc.).
- When snow or road spray from traveling vehicles are splashed.
- When dense exhaust or other smoke (black smoke) from vehicles reduces the visibility of the sensor.
- When excessively heavy baggage is loaded in the rear seat or the luggage room of own vehicle.
- When abruptly accelerating or decelerating.
- On steep downhill or roads with sharp curves.
- When there is a highly reflective object near the vehicle ahead.
i.e.) very close to other vehicle, signboard, etc.
- When own vehicle are towing a trailer.
 Depending on certain road conditions (curved, beginning of a curve), vehicle conditions (steering position,
vehicle position), or preceding vehicle's conditions (pos ition in lane, etc.), the FCW system may not function
properly. The FCW system may detect highly reflective obj ects such as reflectors, signs, white markers, and
other stationary objects on the road or near the traveling lane, and provide unnecessary warning.
 The FCW system may not function in offset conditions.
 The FCW system may not function when the dist ance to the vehicle ahead is extremely close.
 The FCW system is designed to automat ically check the sensor's functionality. If the sensor is covered with
ice, a transparent or translucent pl astic bag, etc., the system may not detect them. In these instances the
FCW system may not be able to warn properly. Be sure to check and clean the sensor regularly.
 Excessive noise will interfere with the warning chime sound, and the chime may not be heard.
 A sudden appearance of the vehicle in front (i.e.: w hen a vehicle abruptly cuts in) may not be detected and
the system may not warn soon enough.
 The FCW system will be canceled automatically with a chime sound and the IBA OFF indicator light will illu-
minate under the following conditions:
- When the sensor window is dirty
- When the FCW system malfunctions
