Obstacles not detected
The sensor cannot detect plastic obstacles such as traffic cones. There may also
be occasions when the sensor cannot detect pedestrians, animals, bicycles,
motorcycles, trees, or snowdrifts.
Situations in which the pre-crash safety system does not function properly
The system may not function effectively in situations such as the following:
On roads with sharp bends or uneven surfaces
If a vehicle suddenly moves in front of your vehicle, such as at an intersection
If a vehicle suddenly cuts in front of your vehicle, such as when overtaking
In inclement weather such as heavy rain, fog, snow or sand storms
If the vehicle is skidding when VSC is not operating
When an extreme change in vehicle height occurs
When only part of your vehicle’s front end collides with, or contacts, a vehicle
or object in a frontal collision
When the radar sensor moves off position due to its surrounding area being sub-
jected to a strong impact
Automatic cancelation of the pre-crash safety system
When a malfunction occurs due to sensor contamination, etc. that results in the
sensors being unable to detect obstacles, the pre-crash safety system will be auto-
matically disabled. In this case, the system will not activate even if there is a col-
lision possibility.
When there is a malfunction in the system
The pre-crash safety system warning light will flash and warning messages will
be displayed. (P. 508, 519)

messages will be displayed: (P. 518, 519)
There is a malfunction with the sensors
The sensors have become dirty
The outside temperature is extremely high or low
The sensor voltage has become abnormal

IS300h_EE(OM53B95E)4-6. Driving tips
Using Eco drive mode
When using Eco drive mode, the torque corresponding to the accelera-
tor pedal depression amount can be generated more smoothly than it is
in normal conditions. In addition, the operation of the air conditioning
system (heating/cooling) will be minimized, improving the fuel econ-
omy. (P. 290)
Use of Hybrid System Indicator
Eco-friendly driving is possible by keeping the indicator needle
(except F SPORT models) or bar display (F SPORT models) of Hybrid
System Indicator within the Eco area. (P. 1 1 4 )
When braking
Make sure to operate the brakes gently and in good time. A greater
amount of electrical energy can be regenerated when slowing down.
Delays
Repeated acceleration and deceleration, as well as long waits at traffic
lights, will lead to bad fuel economy. Check traffic reports before leav-
ing and avoid delays as much as possible. When driving in a traffic
jam, gently release the brake pedal to allow the vehicle to move for-
ward slightly while avoiding overuse of the accelerator pedal. Doing so
can help control excessive gasoline consumption.
Highway driving
Control your speed and keep at a constant speed. Before stopping at a
toll booth or similar, allow plenty of time to release the accelerator and
gently apply the brakes. A greater amount of electrical energy can be
regenerated when slowing down.
