• The sensor front cover should not be
modified or painted.
• Avoid using different size tyres from
those specified and maintain even tyre

When ACC detects no vehicle
in front within the set distance
Your vehicle runs at a speed to which you set. It is possible to set the speed between ap-
proximately 40 and 180 km/h.
NOTEl If the vehicle speed exceed the set speed on
down slope, the system automatically ap-plies the brake to maintain the vehicle speed.
l When depressing the brake pedal while auto-
matic brake is applied, the brake pedal is felt solidly, but it is not abnormal. You can moredepress the pedal and it provides greater
braking force.
l Sound is heard while automatic brake, but it
is operated a brake control and not abnor-
mal.When ACC detects a vehicle in
front within the set distance
The ACC makes control to maintain a fol- lowing distance (time gap) matched with the vehicle speed between your vehicle and a ve-
hicle in front while also activating brakes as necessary.
If the vehicle in front stops, the ACC reacts
to it by stopping your vehicle.
Depress the brake pedal as soon as your vehi- cle comes to a stop.

as an antenna, or a device that emits
strong electric waves near the sensor.
• Always use tyres of the same size, same
type and same brand and that have no sig-
nificant wear differences.
CAUTION• Do not modify the vehicle’s suspensions.
l If the windscreen on the sensor or in the sur-
rounding area of the sensor is cracked or scratched, the sensor may not detect an ob-ject properly. This could cause a serious ac-cident. Turn off the FCM and have your ve-
