When Driving
Forward Obstruction Warning (FOW)
Forward Obstruction Warning (FOW)
Forward Obstruction Warning (FOW) is a system which alerts the driver of a possible
collision using an indicator and warning sound in the instrument cluster\
while the vehicle
is being driven at about 15 km/h or faster (10 mph or faster) and the \
system's radar sensor
determines that your vehicle may hit a vehicle or obstruction ahead.
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the Forward Obstruction Warning (FOW) system and always
drive carefully: Forward Obstruction Warning (FOW) is only designed to reduce damage in the event of
a collision. The ability to detect an obstruction is limited depending on the obstruction,
weather conditions, or traffi c conditions. Therefore, if the accelerator pedal or brake
pedal is mistakenly operated it could result in an accident. Always verify the safety of the
surrounding area and depress the brake pedal or accelerator pedal while keeping a safe
distance from vehicles ahead or on-coming vehicles.
NOTE
 y  The Forward Obstruction Warning (FOW) system operates when all of the following
conditions are met:
 y The ignition is switched ON. y The Forward Obstruction Warning (FOW) system is on. y The vehicle speed is about 15 km/h (10 mph) or faster. y The relative speed between your vehicle and the vehicle or obstruction ahead \
is about
15 km/h (10 mph) — 145 km/h (90 mph).
 y The Forward Obstruction Warning (FOW) system may not operate under the following
conditions:
 y If there is the possibility of hitting only a part of a vehicle or obstruction \
ahead. y If the vehicle is accelerated rapidly and it comes close to a vehicle ah\
ead. y The DSC is malfunctioning. y The vehicle is driven at the same speed as the vehicle ahead. y The accelerator pedal is depressed. y The brake pedal is depressed. y The steering wheel is being operated. y The selector lever is being operated. y The turn signal is being used.

 y  After about 5 seconds have elapsed
with the turn signal lever left operating,
the LDWS warning may operate if the
vehicle is close to a white or yellow
line.
 y The sensitivity of the warning
