Region C
(The pedestrian detection function and pre-collision braking function are
not available)
The pre-collision system is enabled and the system determines that the pos-
sibility of a frontal collision with a vehicle is high.
Each function is operational at the following speeds:
● Pre-collision warning:
• Vehicle speed is between approximately 10 and 110 mph (15 and
180 km/h).
• The relative speed between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead is
approximately 7 mph (10 km/h) or more.
● Pre-collision brake assist:
• Vehicle speed is between approximately 19 and 110 mph (30 and
180 km/h).
• The relative speed between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead is approximately 19 mph (30 km/h) or more.
The system may not operate in the following situations:
● If a battery terminal has been disconnected and reconnected and then the
vehicle has not been driven for a certain amount of time
● If the shift lever is in R
● If VSC is disabled (only the pre-collision warning function will be opera-
tional)
● If the PCS warning light is flashing or illuminated
■ Pedestrian detection function
*4
*4: Depending on the region in which the vehicle was sold, the pedestrian
detection function may not be available.
■ Cancelation of the pre-collision braking
*3
●If either of the following occur while the pre-collision braking function is
operating, it will be canceled:
• The accelerator pedal is depressed strongly.
• The steering wheel is turned sharply or abruptly.
● If the vehicle is stopped by the operation of the pre-collision braking func-
tion, the operation of the pre-collision braking function will be canceled after
the vehicle has been stopped for approximately 2 seconds.
*3: Depending on the region in which the vehicle was sold, the pre-collision
braking function may not be available.
The pre-collision system detects pedestri-
ans based on the size, profile, and motion
of a detected object. However, a pedes-
trian may not be detected depending on
the surrounding brightness and the
motion, posture, and angle of the
detected object, preventing the system
from operating properly. (→P. 250)

For owners
AVERTISSEMENT
■Précautions relatives aux coussins gonflables SRS
Observez les précautions suivantes en ce qui concerne les coussins gon-
flables SRS.
Les négliger pourrait occasionner des blessures graves, voire mortelles.
● Le conducteur et tous les passagers du véhicule doivent porter leur cein-
ture de sécurité de la manière appropriée.
Les coussins gonflables SRS sont des dispositifs supplémentaires qui
doivent être utilisés avec les ceintures de sécurité.
● Le coussin gonflable SRS du conducteur se déploie avec une force consi-
dérable et peut occasionner des blessures graves, voire mortelles, notam-
ment lorsque le conducteur se trouve très près du coussin gonflable. La
National Highway Traffic Safety Admi nistration (NHTSA), aux États-Unis,
fait les recommandations suivantes :
La zone à risque du coussin gonflable du conducteur couvre 2 à 3 in. (50
à 75 mm) de la zone de déploiement du coussin gonflable. Pour ass\
urer
une marge de sécurité suffisante, restez à 10 in. (250 mm) du coussin
gonflable. Cette distance est mesurée depuis le centre du volant jusqu’à
votre sternum. Si maintenant vous vous tenez assis à moins de 10 in.
(250 mm), vous pouvez changer votre position de conduite de plusieurs
manières :
• Reculez votre siège à la position maximale vous permettant d’atteindre encore aisément les pédales.
• Inclinez légèrement le dossier du siège. Même si les véhicules sont conçus différemment, la plupart des
conducteurs peuvent maintenir une distance de 10 in. (250 mm), même
si leur siège se trouve complètement vers l’avant, simplement en incli-
nant un peu le dossier du siège vers l’arrière. Si la visibilité avant est
moindre après avoir incliné le dossier de votre siège, utilisez un coussin
ferme et non glissant pour être assis plus haut ou relevez le siège si
cette option est disponible sur votre véhicule.
• Si votre volant est réglable en haut eur, inclinez-le vers le bas. Cela
vous permet d’orienter le coussin gonflable vers votre buste plutôt que
vers votre tête et vers votre cou.
Le siège doit être réglé de la manière recommandée ci-dessus par la
NHTSA, tout en gardant le contrôle des pédales et du volant, ainsi que la
vue sur les commandes du tableau de bord.
