CHIME DOES NOT SOUND
DescriptionINFOID:0000000006223657
The warning chime may not sound in some cases when there is a short distance between vehicles. Some
examples are:
 When the vehicles are traveling at the same s peed and the distance between vehicles is not changing
 When the vehicle ahead is traveling faster and the distance between vehicles is increasing
 When a vehicle cuts in near own vehicle
 The warning chime will not sound when own vehicle approaches vehicles that are parked or moving slowly.
 The warning chime does not sound when the system does not detect any vehicle ahead. (Diagnose the con-
ditions under which the system is detecting the v ehicle ahead and when the system is malfunctioning. If
there is any malfunction in detecting the v ehicle ahead, check the system following the DAS-206, "
Descrip-
tion".)

YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> GO TO 3.
2.CHECK THE MALFUNCTION SYMPTOM DURI NG WARNING CHIME OPERATION
Understand the vehicle ahead detection condition when the ma lfunction occurred. If the warning chime should
have sounded, replace the ADAS control unit. Refer to DAS-63, "

The dynamic driver assistance switch can be turned ON /OFF but the actuation force of accelerator pedal is
not generated.
NOTE:
 When the vehicle ahead detection indicator does not illumi nate, the control and warning with the system are
not performed.
 The actuation force of accelerator pedal may not be generated sufficiently depending on depressing method
or depressing amount of accelerator pedal.
Diagnosis ProcedureINFOID:0000000006223660
1.PERFORM THE SELF-DIAGNOSIS
1. Perform “All DTC Readi ng” with CONSULT-III.
2. Check if any DTC is detected in self-diagnosis results of “ICC/ADAS” or “ACCELE PEDAL ACT“.
Is any DTC detected?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> GO TO 3.
2.REPAIR OR REPLACE THE MALFUNCTIONING PARTS
Repair or replace malfunctioning parts. Refer to DAS-100, "

(ACCELE PEDAL ACT).
>> GO TO 5.
3.PERFORM ACTIVE TEST
Check if the accelerator pedal actuator operates by the active test items “ACCELERATOR PEDAL ACTUA-
TOR TEST1” and “ACCELERATOR PEDAL ACTUATOR T EST2” of “ACCELE PEDAL ACT” with CONSULT-
III.
Does it operate?
YES >> GO TO 4.
NO >> Replace the accelerator pedal assembly.
4.CHECK VEHICLE AHEAD DETECTION PERFORMANCE
Understand the vehicle ahead detection condition when the malfunction occurred. If the detecting function is
malfunctioning, check according to DAS-206, "
Description".

PRECAUTIONS FOR DISTANCE CONTROL ASSIST (DCA) SYSTEM
 If the vehicle ahead comes to a stop, the vehicle deceler
ates to a standstill within the limitations of the sys-
tem. The system will cancel once it judges that the vehi cle has come to a standstill with a warning chime. To
prevent the vehicle from moving, t he driver must depress the brake pedal.
 The DCA system will not apply brake control while the driver is depressing the accelerator pedal.
 This system is only an aid to assist the driver and is not a collision warning or avoidance device. It is the
driver's responsibility to stay alert, drive safe ly and be in control of the vehicle at all times.
 This system will not adapt automatically to road condi tions. Do not use the system on roads with sharp
curves, or on icy roads, in heavy rain or in fog.
 The distance sensor will not detect under most conditions.
- Stationary and slow moving vehicles
- Pedestrians or objects in the roadway
- Oncoming vehicles in the same lane
- Motorcycles traveling offset in the travel lane
 As there is a performance limit to the distance contro l function, never rely solely on the DCA system. This
system does not correct careless, inat tentive or absent-minded driving, or overcome poor visibility in rain,
fog, or other bad weather. Decelerate the vehi cle speed by depressing the brake pedal, depending on the
distance to the vehicle ahead and the surrounding circumstances in order to maintain a safe distance
between vehicles.
 The system may not detect the vehicle in front of own v ehicle in certain road or weather conditions. To avoid
accidents, never use the DCA system under the following conditions.
- On roads with sharp curves
- On slippery road surfaces such as on ice or snow, etc.
- On off-road surfaces such as on sand or rock, etc.
- During bad weather (rain, fog, snow, etc.)
- When strong light (for example, at sunrise or sunset) is directly shining on the front of the vehicle
- When rain, snow or dirt adhere to the system sensor
- On steep downhill roads (frequent braking may result in overheating the brakes)
- On repeated uphill and downhill roads
- When towing a trailer or other vehicle
 In some road or traffic conditions, a vehicle or objec t can unexpectedly come into the sensor detection zone
and cause automatic braking. Driver may need to control the distance from other vehicles using the acceler-
ator pedal. Always stay alert and avoid using the DCA system when it is not recommended in this section.
 The following are some conditions in which the sensor cannot detect the signals.
- When the reflector of the vehicle ahead is positioned high on the vehicle (trailer, etc.)
- When the reflector on the vehicle ahead is missing, damaged or covered
- When the reflector of the vehicle ahead is covered with dirt, snow and road spray
- When the snow or road spray from traveling vehicles reduces the sensor's visibility
- When dense exhaust or other smoke (black smoke) fr om vehicles reduces the sensor's visibility
- When excessively heavy baggage is loaded in the rear seat or the luggage room of own vehicle
 The DCA system is designed to autom atically check the sensor's operation. When the sensor is covered
with dirt or is obstructed, the system will automatically be canceled. If the sensor is covered with ice, a trans-
parent or translucent vinyl bag, etc., the DCA syste m may not detect them. In these instances, the DCA sys-
tem may not be able to decelerate the vehicle properly. Be sure to check and clean the sensor regularly.
 The DCA system is designed to help assist the driver to maintain a following distance from the vehicle
ahead. The system will decelerate as necessary and if the vehicle ahead comes to a stop, the vehicle decel-
erates to standstill. However, the DCA system can only apply up to 25% of the vehicles total braking power.
If a vehicle moves into the traveling lane ahead or if a vehicle traveling ahead rapidly decelerates, the dis-
tance between vehicles may become closer because t he DCA system cannot decelerate the vehicle quickly
enough. If this occurs, the DCA system will sound a warn ing chime and blink the system display to notify the
driver to take necessary action.
 The DCA system does not control vehicle speed or warn when driver approach stationary and slow moving
vehicles. Driver must pay attention to vehicle operat ion to maintain proper distance from vehicles ahead.
