■“Brake more” warning
The “brake more” warning is activated while Adaptive Cruise Control is tracking a lead vehi-
cle. This function warns the driver when it determines that the current level of deceleration
by automatic braking control is insufficient.
xWhen the ‘brake more’ function operates,
“Obstacle Detected” will be shown in the
pop-up screen area of the multi information
display, a lead vehicle indicator will flash,
and a buzzer will sound several short
beeps.
xWhen this function activates, depress the
brake pedal to decelerate and maintain a
correct following distance.

WARNING
xIf the buzzer sounds frequently, do not use Adaptive Cruise Control.
xThe “brake more” warning will not activate in the following situations.
- The accelerator pedal is depressed.
- The brake pedal is depressed.
xEven when the following distance is short, the “brake more” warning may
not activate in the following situations.
- The difference in speed with the vehicle in front is small. (The two vehi-
cles are travelling at almost the same speed.)
- The vehicle in front is traveling faster than your vehicle. (The following
distance is gradually increasing.)
- Another vehicle cuts into your lane very close to your vehicle.
- The vehicle in front decelerates suddenly.
- When there are repeated uphill and downhill grades
xThe “brake more” warning may not activate in time in the case of a vehicle
that is stopped at the end of a line at a toll gate, at a stop light or intersec-
tion or in traffic congestion, or a vehicle that is moving much slower than
your vehicle. EyeSight requires a speed differential in order to recognize a
potential obstacle and react to it.
