Pre-Collision Braking System
22
Ÿ Continued from previous page
- When the detected object is something other than a vehicle, motorcycle,
bicycle or pedestrian• A domestic animal or other animal (a dog or deer, etc.)
• A guardrail, telephone pole, tree, fence or wall, etc.
- Even if the obstacle is a motorcycle, bicycle or pedestrian, depending on
the brightness of the surroundings as well as the relative movement, and
aspect or angle of the object, there may be cases when the system can-
not detect it.
- When the system determines that operation by the driver (based on accelerator pedal operation, braking, steering wheel angle, etc.) is
intended as evasive action
- Vehicle maintenance status (brake systems, tire wear, tire pressure, whether a temporary spare tire is being used, etc.)
- When towing a trailer or another vehicle, etc.
- When the brakes are cold due to outside temperature being low or just after starting the engine.
- When the brakes are overheated on downhill grades (braking effective- ness is reduced)
- When driving in rain or after washing the vehicle (the brakes are wet and
braking effectiveness is reduced)
- Recognition conditions of the stereo cameras In particular, the function may be unable to stop the vehicle or may not
activate in the following cases.
• Bad weather (for example heavy rain, a blizzard or thick fog)
• When visibility is poor due to sand, smoke or water vapor in the air or when the vehicle in front or oncoming traffic causes water, snow, dirt,
dust or other substances to obscure the view through the windshield
• When driving at night or in a tunnel without the headlights on
• When driving at night or in a tunnel when there is a vehicle in front that does not have its taillights on
• When approaching a motorcycle, bicycle or pedestrian at night
• When ambient light is poor in the evening or early morning
• When a vehicle, motorcycle, bicycle or pedestrian is outside the area illuminated by the headlights
• When affected by strong light from the front (for example, sunlight at
dawn, sunset or headlight beams, etc.)
• When there is snow, frost, dirt or dust on the windshield or it is clouded
• When fluid has not been fully wiped off the windshield during or after washer use
• When the target cannot be correctly recognized because the stereo cameras’ view is obstructed by water droplets from rain or the window
washer, or by the wiper blades.
• When the stereo cameras’ field of view is obstructed (for example by a canoe on the roof of the vehicle)

Adaptive Cruise Control

Adaptive Cruise Control
Adaptive Cruise Control is a driving support system intended to allow more comfortable
driving on expressways, freeways and interstate highways. The vehicle in front in the same
traffic lane is detected by means of the stereo cameras, and your vehicle tracks the vehicle
in front (up to the maximum speed of the set vehicle speed) while automatically maintaining
a following distance that corresponds to the speed of the vehicle in front. The system uses
the vehicle’s conventional braking system to stop your vehicle when the vehicle in front is
stopped. The vehicle is capable of being controlled at a speed between approximately 0 and
90 MPH (145 km/h). Please remember that you should not exceed posted speed limits.Continued on next page Ÿ
WARNING
•This system does not provide the driver with an automatic driving function
that handles all traffic conditions.
• Do not rely excessively on Adaptive Cruise Control. This system is not
intended to assist in driving when the driver is not paying full attention to
what is ahead of him/her due to distractions or a lack of concentration
while driving, or under conditions of poor visibility. It is not intended to pre-
vent rear-end collisions.
Strive for safe driving at all times. Always maintain a safe following dis-
tance behind the vehicle in front of you, pay attention to your surroundings
and the driving conditions, and operate the brake pedal and take other
action as necessary.
• Set the set vehicle speed within a range that is appropriate to the road con-
ditions and surrounding environment.
• Before using the system, perform a daily inspection and verify that there
are no malfunctions of the tires or brakes.
Ÿ Refer to the separate “Warranty and Maintenance Booklet”.
• The system may not operate correctly under the conditions listed below.
When these conditions occur, do not use Adaptive Cruise Control.
- The tire pressure is not correct.

- The temporary spare tire is installed on any wheel.*1
- Tires that are worn or have large variations in wear conditions are installed.*1
- Tires other than those of the designated size are installed.*1

- When water droplets from rain or the window washer, or dirt has not
been fully wiped off the windshield
It may not be possible to detect the vehicle in front, making correct
control impossible.
- When the stereo cameras’ field of view is obstructed (for example by a canoe on the roof of the vehicle)
• The stereo cameras may have difficulty detecting the following objects or
conditions. Operate the brake pedal and take other actions as necessary.
- Vehicles at significantly different speeds (vehicles driving slowly, stopped or oncoming vehicles, etc.)
- Vehicles cutting into your lane
- Motorcycles, bicycles, pedestrians and animals, etc.
- When light is poor in the evening or early morning
- When driving at night or in a tunnel without the headlights on
- When driving at night or in a tunnel when there is a vehicle in front that
does not have its taillights on
- When affected by strong light from the front (sunlight or headlight high
beams, etc.)
- Vehicles in front that have a rear aspect that is low,
small or irregular (the sys-
tem may recognize
another part of the vehicle
and will determine opera-
tion from that)• An empty truck or trailer
that has no cargo in the
cargo bed being affected
by wind
• Vehicles that have cargo
protruding from their
back ends
• Non-standard shaped ve-
hicles (vehicle transport-
ers or vehicles with a sidecar fitted, etc.)
• Vehicles that are low
- Objects that are located close to the bumper of your vehicle
• When you do not want to use Adaptive Cruise Control, be sure to turn the
(CRUISE) switch off. If the switch is left on, cruise control may be
accidentally engaged, possibly resulting in an accident.
• Before using Adaptive Cruise Control, be sure to fully verify the safety of
the vehicle occupants and the area around the vehicle. Never operate the
cruise control from outside the vehicle.

Troubleshooting
88
EyeSight does not restart after a temporary stop.
Are you parking the vehicle at extremely cold or hot condition? In these cases,
EyeSight will maintain temporary stop until the temperature is back to normal.
Are you driving in the rain with old wipers or is there an oily film on the windshield?
Replace the wipers with new ones, or clean the oily film off the windshield.
Are you driving in poor weather conditions with heavy rain, snow, fog, or dust? In
these cases, EyeSight may temporarily stop operating while visibility is very low.
Is your vehicle subject to sunlight from the front (sunset or sunrise, etc.) or to
bright headlights from oncoming vehicles at nighttime?
In these cases, EyeSight may temporarily stop operating.
The timing of the “brake more” warning is sometimes earlier and sometimes later
than what seems to be normal operation.
The “brake more” warning sounds when the system determines that more braking
is necessary, based on conditions such as the distance from the vehicle in front
and the difference in speed compared to it. As a result, timing may vary depend-
ing on how the brakes are applied in relation to the vehicle in front, and your rela-
tive speed to that vehicle.
When the vehicle in front has turned off the road away or the distance from the
vehicle in front has increased, acceleration is sometimes slower or faster.
Depending on the timing of when the detection of the vehicle in front is lost,
EyeSight’s ability to react may be slower, causing the start of acceleration to feel
delayed and braking time to feel longer than what seems to be normal operation.
