AEB Operation
Warning message
A warning message and chime will
sound when you need to use the
brake pedal or steering wheel due to
a sudden stop or lack of distance
with the vehicle ahead. The warning
messages will vary according to the
severity of the situation. Immediately
reduce your speed to prevent a colli-
sion.Brake operation
In a critical situation:
• The brake assist system enters
standby mode to react promptly
when the driver operates the brake
pedal.
• The vehicle automatically reduces
speed according to the severity of
the situation.
- Rapidly reduces speed when
vehicle speed is under 80km/h
- Slowly reduces speed when vehi-
cle speed is over 80km/h
• If the driver uses the brake pedal to
reduce vehicle speed, the brake
assist system operates to increase
braking efficiency.
• If the driver presses down hard on
the accelerator pedal or sharply
turns the steering wheel, the brake
assist system is canceled.
