If arisk ofaforward collision isdetected, theforward
emergency brakingsystemwillprovide thefirst
warning tothe driver byflashing theforward emer-

audible warning.
If the driver applies thebrakes quickly andforcefully
after thewarning, andtheforward emergency braking
system detects thatthere isstill thepossibility ofa
forward collision, thesystem willautomatically increase
the braking force.
If the driver doesnottake action, theforward

WARNING:
. Do not stop orpark thevehicle over

cause afire.
. Safe parking procedures requirethatboth
the parking brakebeapplied andtheshift
lever placed inthe ªPº(Park) position
(Continuously Variable Transmission model)
or the shift lever placed inan appropriate
gear (Manual Transmission model).Failure
to do socould cause thevehicle tomove

. When parking thevehicle, makesurethe
shift lever ismoved tothe ªPº(Park)
