Precautions for Moving Objects DetectionINFOID:0000000009464892
REAR VIEW CAMERA HANDLING
• The rear view camera which is located on the back
of the trunk performs the Moving Object Detection sys-
tem.
• Always keep the rear view camera lens clean.
• Do not attach a sticker (including transparent material ), install an accessory or paint work over the camera
lens.
• Do not strike or scratch the lens causing physical damage to the camera or the surrounding area.
MOVING OBJECT DETECTION
• The Moving Object Detection system is not a repl acement for proper driving procedure and is not designed
to prevent contact with vehicles or objects. When backing up, always look in the direction driver will move to
ensure it is safe to proceed. Never rely solely on the Moving Object Detection system.
• Using the Moving Object Detection system under some road or weather conditions could lead to improper
system operation. Always rely on driver's own steering and braking operation to avoid accidents.
• The Moving Object Detection system may not provide a warning for vehicles that pass through the detection
zone quickly.
• Do not use the Moving Object Detection system when towing a trailer.
• Excessive noise (e.g., audio system volume, open v ehicle window) will interfere with the chime sound, and it
may not be heard.
• The rear view camera may not be able to detect and activate Moving Object Detection when certain objects are present such as:
- Pedestrians, bicycles, animals.
- A vehicle passing at a speed greater than approximately 15 MPH (24km/h).
• Severe weather or road spray conditions may reduce the ability of the radar to detect other vehicles.
• Do not use the MOD system under the following condi tions because the system may not function properly:
- When driving with a tire that is not within normal tire condition (example: tire wear, low pressure, spare tire, chain, non-standard wheels).
- When the vehicle is equipped with non-original brake parts or suspension parts.

DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM (ITS CONTROL UNIT)
CONSULT Function (AVM)INFOID:0000000009951658
CAUTION:
After disconnecting the CONSULT vehicle interface (VI) from the data link connector, the ignition must
be cycled OFF → ON (for at least 5 seconds) → OFF. If this step is not performed, the BCM may not go
to ”sleep mode”, potentiall y causing a discharged battery and no-start condition.

- Pedestrians, bicycles, animals.
- A vehicle passing at a speed greater than approximately 24km/h (15 MPH ).
• A rear view camera may not detect approaching vehicles in certain situations:

- When the vehicle turns around into your vehicle’s aisle.
- When the angle formed by your vehicle and approaching vehicle is small.
• Severe weather or road spray conditions may reduce the ability of the radar to detect other vehicles.
• The rear view camera system may not detect:
- Small or moving object.
- Wedge-shaped objects.
- Object closer to the bumper than 30 cm (10 inch).
- Thin objects such as rope, wire, chain, etc.
• Do not use the MOD system under the following condi tions because the system may not function properly:

IDLE AIR VOLUME LEARNING
DescriptionINFOID:0000000009462138
Idle Air Volume Learning is a function of ECM to lear
n the idle air volume that keeps each engine idle speed
within the specific range. It must be per formed under any of the following conditions:
• Each time electric throttle control actuator or ECM is replaced.
• Idle speed or ignition timing is out of specification.
Work ProcedureINFOID:0000000009462139
1.PRECONDITIONING
Make sure that all of the following conditions are satisfied.
Learning will be cancelled if any of the following conditions are missed for even a moment.
• Battery voltage: More than 12.9 V (At idle)
• Engine coolant temperature: 70 - 100 °C (158 - 212 °F)
• Selector lever : P or N
• Electric load switch: OFF
(Air conditioner, headlamp, rear window defogger)
On vehicles equipped with daytime running light systems, set lighting switch to the 1st position to
light only small lamps.
• Steering wheel: Neutral (Straight-ahead position)
• Vehicle speed: Stopped
• Transmission: Warmed-up
- With CONSULT Drive vehicle until “ATF TENP SEN” in “DATA MONITO R” mode of “CVT” system indicates less than 0.9 V.
- Without CONSULT Drive vehicle for 10 minutes.
Do you have CONSULT?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> GO TO 3.
2.IDLE AIR VOLUME LEARNING
With CONSULT
1. Perform Accelerator Pedal Released Position Learning. Refer to EC-177, "Work Procedure"
.
2. Perform Throttle Valve Closed Position Learning. Refer to EC-178, "Work Procedure"
.
3. Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
4. Select “IDLE AIR VOL LEARN” in “WORK SUPPORT” mode of “ENGINE”.
5. Touch “START” and wait 20 seconds.
Is
“CMPLT” displayed on CONSULT screen?
YES >> GO TO 4.
NO >> GO TO 5.
3.IDLE AIR VOLUME LEARNING
Without CONSULT
NOTE:
• It is better to count the time accurately with a clock.
• It is impossible to switch the di agnostic mode when an accelerator pedal position sensor circuit has
a malfunction.
1. Perform Accelerator Pedal Released Position Learning. Refer to EC-177, "Work Procedure"
.
2. Perform Throttle Valve Closed Position Learning. Refer to EC-178, "Work Procedure"
.
3. Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
4. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.
5. Confirm that accelerator pedal is fully releas ed, turn ignition switch ON and wait 3 seconds.
6. Repeat the following procedure quick ly five times within 5 seconds.
- Fully depress the accelerator pedal.
- Fully release the accelerator pedal.
7. Wait 7 seconds, fully depress the accelerator pedal and keep it for approx. 20 seconds until the MIL stops
blinking and turned ON.
