When adjusting the seat position ●
Take care when adjusting the seat position to ensure that other passengers are not
injured by the moving seat. ●
Do not put your hands under the seat or near the moving parts to avoid injury.
Fingers or hands may become jammed in the se at mechanism.■
Seat adjustment
To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt during a co llision, do not recline the seat
more than necessary.
If the seat is too rec lined, the lap belt may slide past the hips and apply restraint forces
directly to the abdomen, or your neck may contact the shoulder belt, increasing the risk
of death or serious injury in the event of an accident.
Adjustments should not be ma de while driving as the seat may unexpectedly move and
cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.

Before towing
Check that the followin g conditions are met:●
Ensure that your vehicle’s tires are properly inflated. (  P. 6 1 5 )●
Trailer tires are inflated according to the trailer manufacturer’s recommendation. ●
All trailer lights work as required by law. ●
All lights work each time you connect them. ●
The trailer ball is set at the proper height for the coupler on the trailer.●
The trailer is level when it is hitched.
Do not drive if the trailer is not level, an d check for improper to ngue weight, overload-
ing, worn suspension, or other possible causes. ●
The trailer cargo is securely loaded. ●
The rear view mirrors conform to all applicable federal, state/provincial or local regula-
tions. If they do not, install rear view mirrors appropriate for towing purposes.No matter which class of tow hitch

The pre-collision system is operational when
The pre-collision system is on (  P. 311) and the following conditions are met:●
Pre-collision warning:
• Vehicle speed is greater th an about 10 mph (15 km/h).
• The speed at which your vehicle is approaching the obstacle or the vehicle running
ahead of you is greater than about 7 mph (10 km/h). ●
Pre-collision brake assist:
• The VSC is not turned off.
• Vehicle speed is greater than about 19 mph (30 km/h).
• The speed at which your vehicle is approaching the obstacle or the vehicle running
ahead of you is greater than about 19 mph (30 km/h).
• The brake pedal is depressed. ●
Pre-collision braking:
• The VSC is not turned off.
• Vehicle speed is greater th an about 10 mph (15 km/h).
• The speed at which your vehicle is approaching the obstacle or the vehicle running
ahead of you is greater than about 7 mph (10 km/h).■
Conditions that may trigger the system even if there is no possibility of a collision
If the following obstructs the front of the sens or, the system judges that a collision may be
possible and operates. ●
When passing by a vehicle while making left or right turns or passing a vehicle in an
opposite lane. ●
When the vehicle rapidly approaches an object in front of it (such as another vehicle,
toll gate, etc.) ●
When climbing a steep hill, etc., and there are structures in the upper region of the road
(billboards, low ceilings , street lamps, etc.)●
When driving through narrow passages or places with low ceilings (bridges, tunnels,
overhead passes, etc.) ●
When driving on an uneven road surface ●
When metal objects are on the road surface causing level differences or protrusions in
the road ●
When an extreme change in vehicle height occurs ●
When the radar sensor moves off position du e to its surrounding area being subjected
to a strong impact. ●
When there is an obstacle on the side of an entrance of a curb for road (guardrails, etc.) ●
When your vehicle is tilted upwards (due to towing a trailer or during emergency tow-
ing, heavy loads in the lu ggage compartment, etc.).
When the system is activated in the situations described above, ther e is also a possibility
that the brakes will be applied wi th a force greater than normal.■
Obstacles not detected
The sensor cannot detect plasti c obstacles such as traffic co nes. There may also be occa-
sions when the sensor cannot detect pedestrians, animals, bicycles, motorcycles, trees,
or snowdrifts.

Situations in which the pre-collision 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 heav y rain, fog, snow or sand storms●
When your vehicle is skidding with the VSC system off ●
When an extreme change in vehicle height occurs ●
When the radar sensor moves off position du e to its surrounding area being subjected
to a strong impact ●
Due to greatly turning the wheel when an obstacle suddenly appears ahead ■
Automatic cancelation of the pre-collision system
When a malfunction occurs due to sensor contamination, etc., that results in the sensors
being unable to detect obstacles, the pre-collision syst em will be automatically disabled.
In this case, the system will not activate even if there is a collision possibility.■
When there is a malfunction in the system, or if the system is temporarily unavailable
The PCS warning light flashes and a warning message is shown on the multi-information
display. If a warning message is shown on th e multi-information display, read the message
and follow the instructions. ■
When the TRAC and VSC are turned off ●
When the TRAC and VSC operations are turned off (  P. 307), the pre-collision brake
assist and pre-collision braking are also turned off. However, the alert function oper-
ates. ●
The PCS warning light turns on and the “V SC Turned Off Pre-Collision Brake System
Unavailable” is shown on the multi-information display. ■
