Pre-Collision Braking System
When there is the risk of a rear-end collision with a obstacle in front, the EyeSight system
helps to minimize or prevent a collision by warning the driver. If the driver still does not take
evasive action to avoid a collision, the brakes can be automatically applied just before the
collision in order to reduce impact damage, or if possible, prevent the collision. If the driver
takes evasive action to avoid a collision, Pre-Collision Brake Assist will operate in order to
help the driver to prevent the collision.
This system can be effective not only with direct rear-end collisions, but also with offset
rear-end collisions. This function can be activated when the select lever is in the , or
positions.
WARNING
xNever use the Pre-Collision Braking System and Pre-Collision Brake Assist to
stop your car or avoid a collision under ordinary conditions. These functions
cannot prevent collisions under all conditions. If the driver relies only on the
Pre-Collision Braking System for Brake operation, collisions may occur.
xWhen a warning is activated, pay attention to the front of the vehicle and its
surroundings, and operate the brake pedal and/or take other actions if nec-
essary.
xThe EyeSight Pre-Collision Braking System is primarily designed to pre-
vent rear-end collisions with other vehicles when possible and to minimize
damage and injuries in the event of a collision. In addition to other vehi-
cles, things such as motorbikes, bicycles and pedestrians can also be
treated as obstacles. However, there may be cases when detection is not
possible depending on a variety of conditions
*2. For example, when a vehi-
cle is viewed from the side, oncoming vehicle, vehicles approaching in
reverse, small animals or children, or walls or doors are not likely to be
detected.
xThe Pre-Collision Braking System will operate at the point when it deter-
mines that a collision cannot be avoided and is designed to apply strong
braking force just before a collision. The result of this varies depending on
a variety of conditions
*2. Because of this, performance of this function will
not always be the same.
xWhen the Pre-Collision Braking System is activated, it will continue to
operate even if the accelerator pedal is partially depressed. However, it will
be canceled if the accelerator pedal is deeply depressed.
xIf the driver depresses the brake pedal or turns the steering wheel, the system
may determine that this constitutes evasive action by the driver, and the auto-
matic braking control may not activate in order to allow the driver full control.
xWhen the difference in speed with the obstacle in front is the following fig-
ure
*1 or more, it may not be possible to avoid a collision. Even if the speed
difference is the following figure*1 or less, in cases such as when another
vehicle cuts in front of you, or in other cases depending on visibility, the
condition of road surface and other factors
*2, the function may be unable to
stop the vehicle or may not activate. Pre-Collision Brake Assist also may
not activate depending on the conditions
*2 listed below.
*1:For vehicles: approximately 30 MPH (50 km/h),
For pedestrians: approximately 21 MPH (35 km/h)
*2:Conditions
- Distance to obstacle in front of you, speed difference, proximity condi-
tions, lateral displacement (the amount of offset)

- Vehicle conditions (amount of load, number of occupants, etc.)
- Road conditions (grade, slipperiness, shape, bumps, etc.)
- When visibility ahead is poor (rain, snow, fog or smoke, etc.)
- When the detected object is something other than a vehicle, motorcycle,
bicycle or pedestrian
xA domestic animal or other animal (a dog or deer, etc.)
xA 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.
xBad weather (for example heavy rain, a blizzard or thick fog)
xWhen 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
xWhen driving at night or in a tunnel without the headlights on
xWhen driving at night or in a tunnel when there is a vehicle in front that
does not have its taillights on
xWhen approaching a motorcycle, bicycle or pedestrian at night
xWhen ambient light is poor in the evening or early morning
xWhen a vehicle, motorcycle, bicycle or pedestrian is outside the area
illuminated by the headlights
xWhen affected by strong light from the front (for example, sunlight at
dawn, sunset or headlight beams, etc.)
xWhen there is snow, frost, dirt or dust on the windshield or it is clouded
xWhen fluid has not been fully wiped off the windshield during or after
washer use
xWhen 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.

xWhen you suddenly change lanes and your vehicle is immediately
behind an obstacle
xWhen there is a vehicle, motorcycle, bicycle or pedestrian in a location
close to your vehicle’s bumper
xWhen the speed difference between your vehicle and an obstacle is 4
MPH (5 km/h) or less (As braking is performed once the obstacle is in
close proximity to your vehicle, depending on the shape and size of the
obstacle, there may be some cases when the obstacle is outside the
range of the cameras’ field of vision.)
xWhen driving on sharp curves, steep uphill grades or steep downhill
grades
xWhen driving on a bumpy or unpaved road
xWhen there are changes in brightness, such as at a tunnel entrance or
exit
xDo not test Pre-Collision Braking System on its own. It may operate
improperly and cause an accident.

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. Through operation of the electronic parking brake,
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.
WARNING
xThis system does not provide the driver with an automatic driving function
that handles all traffic conditions.
xDo 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 prevent rear-end collisions.
Strive for safe driving at all times. Always maintain a safe following distance
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 neces-
sary.
xSet the set vehicle speed within a range that is appropriate to the road con-
ditions and surrounding environment.
xBefore 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”.
xThe system may not operate correctly under the conditions listed below.
