Driving Tips
Driving on Uneven Road
Your vehicle's suspension and underbody can be damaged if driven on rough\
/uneven roads
or over speed bumps at excessive speeds. Use care and reduce speed when \
traveling on
rough/uneven roads or over speed bumps.
Use care not to damage the vehicle's underbody, bumpers or muffler(s) when driving under
the following conditions:
Ascending or descending a slope with a sharp transition angle Ascending or descending a driveway or trailer ramp with a sharp transiti\
on angle
This vehicle is equipped with low profile tires allowing class-leading performance and
handling. As a result, the sidewall of the tires are very thin and the tires and w\
heels can be
damaged if driven through potholes or on rough/uneven roads at excessive\
speeds. Use care
and reduce speed when traveling on rough/uneven roads or through pothole\
s.

When Driving
i-ACTIVSENSE
NOTE
In the following cases, the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) cannot detect target objects
correctly, and each system may be unable to operate normally.
The height of the vehicle ahead is low. You drive your vehicle at the same speed as the vehicle ahead. Headlights are not turned on during the night or when going through a tunnel.
In the following cases, the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) may not be able to detect
target objects correctly.
Under bad weather condition, such as rain, fog and snow. The window washer is being used or the windshield wipers are not used when it's raining. Ice, fog, snow, frost, rainfall, dirt, or foreign matter such as a plastic bag is stuck on
the windshield.
Trucks with low loading platforms and vehicles with an extremely low or high profile. When driving next to walls with no patterning (including fences and lon\
gitudinally
striped walls).
The taillights of the vehicle ahead are turned off. A vehicle is outside the illumination range of the headlights. The vehicle is making a sharp turn, or ascending or descending a steep s\
lope. Entering or exiting a tunnel. Heavy luggage is loaded causing the vehicle to tilt. Strong light is shone at the front of the vehicle (back light or high-beam light from on-
coming vehicles).
There are many light emitters on the vehicle ahead. When the vehicle ahead is not equipped with taillights or the taillights\
are turned off at
nighttime.
Elongated luggage or cargo is loaded onto installed roof rails and covers the Forward
Sensing Camera (FSC).
Exhaust gas from the vehicle in front, sand, snow, and water vapor rising from
manholes and grating, and water splashed into the air.
When towing a malfunctioning vehicle. The vehicle is driven with tires having significantly different wear. The vehicle is driven on down slopes or bumpy roads. There are water puddles on the road. The surroundings are dark such as during the night, early evening, or early morning,
or in a tunnel or indoor parking lot.
The illumination brightness of the headlights is reduced or the headlight illumination
is weakened due to dirt or a deviated optical axis.
The target object enters the blind spot of the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC). A person or object bursts onto the road from the shoulder or cuts right in front of you. You change lanes and approach a vehicle ahead. When driving extremely close to the target object. Tire chains or a temporary spare tire is installed. The vehicle ahead has a special shape. For example, a vehicle towing a t\
railer house
or a boat, or a vehicle carrier carrying a vehicle with its front pointed rearward.

A2DP is a profile which transmits only
audio to the Bluetooth
® unit. If your
Bluetooth® audio device corresponds
only to A2DP, but not AVRCP, you
cannot operate it using the control panel
of the vehicle's audio system. In this
case, only the operations on the mobile
device are available the same as when a
portable audio device for a non-compliant
Bluetooth
® device is connected to the
AUX terminal.

NOTE
The battery consumption of Bluetooth®
audio devices increases while
Bluetooth
® is connected. If a general mobile phone device is
USB connected during music playback
over the Bluetooth
® connection, the
Bluetooth® connection is disconnected.
For this reason, you cannot have music
playback over a Bluetooth
® connection
and music playback using a USB
connection at the same time.
The system may not operate normally
depending on the Bluetooth® audio
device.
