INTELLIGENT BRAKE ASSIST : System DescriptionINFOID:0000000006228299
FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
Intelligent Brake Assist (IBA) syst
em warns the driver by a vehicle ahead detection indicator and chime when
there is a risk of a collision with the vehicle ahead in the traveling lane and the driver must take avoidance
action immediately. The system helps reduce the rear -end collision speed by applying the brakes when it
judges a collision can not be avoided.
CAUTION:
The IBA system is a not collision avoidance system. It is the driver ′s responsibility to stay alert, drive
safely and be in control of the vehicle at all times. As there is a performance limit, it may not provide a
warning or brake in certain conditions.
NOTE:
 The IBA system shares component parts and diagnosis wi th the Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC) system.
New parts added to the IBA system is the IBA OFF indica tor lamp in the combination meter and the IBA OFF
switch on the instrument driver lower panel.
 The ICC sensor integrated unit shares the parts with the ICC, but the IBA system will operate even when the
ICC system is turned to OFF.
OPERATION DESCRIPTION
The IBA system uses an ICC sensor located below t he front bumper to measure the distance to a vehicle
ahead. When the system judges that the distance gets shorter, the vehicle ahead detection indicator on the
combination meter blinks and the warning chime sounds.
To turn the system OFF/ON, push and hold the IBA OFF switch after starting the engine for more than 1 sec-
ond.
NOTE:
 The system ON/OFF condition will be memorized even if the ignition switch turns OFF.
 The IBA system operates under the following conditions.
- The IBA system will function when the vehicle is driv en at speeds of approximately 15 km/h (10 MPH) and
above, and when the vehicle ′s speed is approximately 15 km/h (10 MPH) faster than that of the vehicle
ahead.

PRECAUTIONS FOR INTELLIGENT BRAKE ASSIST
 The IBA system is a not collision avoidance system. It is the driver′s responsibility to stay alert, drive safely
and be in control of the vehicle at all times.
 As there is a performance limit, it may not prov ide a warning or brake in certain conditions.
 The system will not detect the following objects:
- Pedestrians, animals, or obstacles in the roadway
- Oncoming vehicles in the same lane
 The system will not detect under the following conditions:
- When the sensor gets dirty and 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 the signals returned from the reflectors on a vehicle ahead. Therefore, the sys-
tem may not function properly under the following conditions:
- When the reflectors of the vehicle ahead are positioned high or close each other (including a small vehicle
such as motorcycles).
- When the sensor gets dirty or and it is impossi ble to detect the distance from 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 and road spray.
- When visibility is low (such as rain, fog, snow, etc.).
- When snow or road spray from traveling vehicles are raised up.
- When dense exhaust or other smoke (black smoke) fr om vehicles reduces the sensor visibility.
- When excessively heavy baggage is loaded in the rear seat or the luggage room of 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.).
- While towing a trailer or other vehicle.
 Depending on certain road conditions (curved, beginning of a curve), vehicle conditions (steering position,
vehicle position), or preceding vehicle ′s conditions (position in lane, etc. ), the system may not function prop-
erly.
 The system may not function in offset conditions.
 The system may not function when the distanc e to the vehicle ahead is extremely close.
 The system detect highly reflective objects such as reflectors, signs, white markers, and other stationary objects on the road or
near the traveling lane, and when in extreme conditions, detection
of these objects may caus e the system to function.
 The system is designed to automatically check the sensor ′s func-
tionality. If the sensor is covered with ice, a transparent or translu-
cent plastic bag, etc., the system may not detect them. In these
instances the 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.
 Never step in under the brake pedal to avoid an accident when IBA
system turns ON.
 Sudden appearance of the vehicle in front (i.e. it abrupt ly cuts in) may not be detected and the system may
not warn soon enough.
 The system will be cancelled automatically with a beep sound and the IBA OFF indicator lamp will illuminate
under the following conditions:
- When the sensor window is dirty
- When the system malfunctions
