Setting DCA system to ON/OFF:
The DCA can be turned on/off in the vehicle
information display using the buttons on the
steering wheel.1. Press the
button until “Settings” dis-
plays in the vehicle information display and
then press the ENTER button. Use
the
button to select “Driver Assis-
tance.” Then press the ENTER button.
2. Select “Driving Aids”, and press the ENTER button.
3. Select “Forward”, and press the ENTER but- ton.
4. To turn on the “Assistance (DCA)” check the box using the ENTER button.
If the LDP, BSI and DCA systems are set to off on
the information display and the dynamic driver
assistance switch is pushed, the LDP ON indica-
tor light, BSI ON indicator light, and the DCA
system switch indicator light will blink for approxi-
mately 2 seconds.
For additional information on LDP and BSI, refer
to “Lane Departure Prevention (LDP)” and “Blind
Spot Intervention® (BSI)” in this section.
DCA SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
● This system is only an aid to assist the
driver and is not a collision warning or
avoidance device. It is the driver’s re-
sponsibility to stay alert, drive safely
and be in control of the vehicle at all
times.
● This system will not adapt automatically
to road conditions.
● As there is a performance limit to the
distance control function, never rely
solely on the DCA system. This system
does not correct careless, inattentive or
absent-minded driving, or overcome
poor visibility in rain, fog, or other bad
weather. Decelerate the vehicle speed
by depressing the brake pedal, depend-
ing on the distance to the vehicle ahead
and the surrounding circumstances in
order to maintain a safe distance be-
tween vehicles.
● The system may not detect the vehicle
in front of you in certain road or weather
conditions. To avoid accidents, never
use the DCA system under the following
conditions: – On roads with sharp curves
– On slippery road surfaces such as on
ice or snow, etc.
– During bad weather (rain, fog, snow, etc.)
– When rain, snow or dirt adhere to the sensor area of the front bumper
– On steep downhill roads (frequent braking may result in overheating the
brakes)
– On repeated uphill and downhill roads
● Do not use the DCA system if you are
towing a trailer. The system may not
detect a vehicle ahead.
● In some road or traffic conditions, a
vehicle or object can unexpectedly
come into the sensor detection zone
and cause automatic braking. You may
need to control the distance from other
vehicles using the accelerator pedal. Al-
ways stay alert and avoid using the DCA
system where not recommended in this
warning section.

●The PFCW system (if so equipped) is inte-
grated into the FEB with pedestrian detec-
tion system. There is not a separate selec-
tion in the vehicle information display for the
PFCW system. When the FEB with pedes-
trian detection is turned off, the PFCW sys-
tem is also turned off.
FEB WITH PEDESTRIAN
DETECTION SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
the FEB with pedestrian detection system.
Failure to operate the vehicle in accor-
dance with these system limitations could
result in serious injury or death.
● The FEB with pedestrian detection sys-
tem cannot detect all vehicles or pedes-
trians under all conditions.
● The radar sensor FEB with pedestrian
detection system does not detect the
following objects:
– Small pedestrians (including small children) , animals and cyclists.
– Pedestrians in wheelchairs or using mobile transport such as scooters,
child-operated toys, or skateboards. – Pedestrians who are seated or other-
wise not in a full upright standing or
walking position.
– Oncoming vehicles
– Crossing vehicles
– Obstacles on the roadside
● The FEB with pedestrian detection sys-
tem has some performance limitations.
– If a stationary vehicle is in the vehi- cle’s path, the FEB with pedestrian
detection system will not function
when the vehicle is driven at speeds
over approximately 50 mph
(80 km/h).
– For pedestrian detection, the FEB with pedestrian detection system will
not function when the vehicle is
driven at speeds over approximately
37 mph (60 km/h) or below approxi-
mately 6 mph (10km/h) .
● The FEB with pedestrian detection sys-
tem will not function for pedestrians in
darkness or in tunnels, even if there is
street lighting in the area. ●
For pedestrians, the FEB with pedes-
trian detection system will not issue the
first warning and will not push the ac-
celerator pedal up.
● The FEB with pedestrian detection sys-
tem may not function if the vehicle
ahead is narrow (for example a
motorcycle) .
● The FEB with pedestrian detection sys-
tem may not function if speed differ-
ence between the two vehicles is too
small.
● The radar sensor FEB with pedestrian
detection system may not function
properly or detect a vehicle ahead in the
following conditions:
o Poor visibility (conditions such as rain, snow, fog, dust storms, sand-
storms, and road spray from other
vehicles)
o Driving on a steep downhill slope or roads with sharp curves.
o Driving on a bumpy road surface, such as an uneven dirt road.
o If dirt, ice, snow or other material is covering the radar sensor area.
5-112Starting and driving
o Interference by other radar sources.
o The camera area of windshield isfogged up, or covered with dirt, water
drops, ice, snow, etc.
o Strong light (for example, sunlight or high beams from oncoming vehicles)
enters the front camera. Strong light
causes the area around the pedes-
trian to be cast in a shadow, making
it difficult to see.
o A sudden change in brightness oc- curs. (For example, when the vehicle
enters or exits a tunnel or a shaded
area or lightning flashes.)
o The poor contrast of a person to the background, such as having clothing
color or pattern which is similar to
the background.
o The pedestrian’s profile is partially obscured or unidentifiable due to the
pedestrian transporting luggage,
wearing bulky or very loose-fitting
clothing or accessories.
● The system performance may degrade
in the following conditions:
o The vehicle is driven on a slippery road. o The vehicle is driven on a slope.
o Excessively heavy baggage is loaded
in the rear seat or the trunk room of
your vehicle.
● The system is designed to automatically
check the sensor (radar and camera)’s
functionality, within certain limitations.
The system may not detect blockage of
sensor areas covered by ice, snow or
stickers, for example. In these cases,
the system may not be able to warn the
driver properly. Be sure that you check,
clean and clear sensor areas regularly.
● In some road and traffic conditions, the
FEB with pedestrian detection system
may unexpectedly apply partial braking.
When acceleration is necessary, de-
press the accelerator pedal to override
the system.
● Excessive noise will interfere with the
warning chime sound, and the chime
may not be heard.
