•Even if there is any problem
with the brake control function
of the FCA system, the vehi-
cle's basic braking perform-
ance will operate normally.
However, brake control func-
tion for avoiding collision will
not activate.
•If the vehicle in front stops
suddenly, you may have less
control of the brake system.
Therefore, always keep a safe
distance between your vehicle
and the vehicle in front of you.
•The FCA system may activate
during braking and the vehi-
cle may stop suddenly shift-
ing loose objects toward the
passengers. Always keep
loose objects secured.
•The FCA system may not acti-
vate if the driver applies the
brake pedal to avoid a colli-
sion.(Continued)
(Continued)
•The brake control may be
insufficient, possibly causing
a collision, if a vehicle in front
abruptly stops. Always pay
extreme caution.
•Occupants may get injured, if
the vehicle abruptly stops by
the activated FCA system. Pay
extreme caution.
•The FCA system operates
only to detect vehicle or
pedestrian in front of the vehi-
cle.
•The FCA system does not
operate when the vehicle is in
reverse.
•The FCA system is not
designed to detect other
objects on the road such as
animals.
•The FCA system does not
detect vehicles in the oppo-
site lane.
•The FCA system does not
detect cross traffic vehicles
that are approaching.
•The FCA system cannot
detect the driver approaching
the side view of a parked vehi-
cle (for example on a dead
end street.)
In these cases, you must main-
tain a safe braking distance,
and if necessary, depress the
brake pedal to reduce the driv-
ing speed in order to maintain a
safe distance.

Limitations of the system
The Forward Collision avoidance
assist (FCA) system is designed to
monitor the vehicle ahead or a pedes-
trian in the roadway through radar sig-
nals and camera recognition to warn
the driver that a collision is imminent,
and if necessary, apply emergency
braking.
In certain situations, the radar sen-
sor or the camera may not be able to
detect the vehicle or pedestrian
ahead. In these cases, the FCA sys-
tem may not operate normally. The
driver must pay careful attention in
the following situations where the
FCA operation may be limited.
Detecting vehicles
The sensor may be limited when:
• The radar sensor or camera isblocked with a foreign object or
debris
• The camera lens is contaminated due to tinted, filmed or coated
windscreen, damaged glass, or
stuck of foreign matter (sticker,
bug, etc.) on the glass
• Inclement weather such as heavy rain or snow obscures the field of
view of the radar sensor or camera
• There is interference by electro- magnetic waves
• There is severe irregular reflection from the radar sensor
• The radar/camera sensor recogni- tion is limited
• The vehicle in front is too small to be detected (for example a motor-
cycle etc.)
• The vehicle in front is an oversize vehicle or trailer that is too big to
be detected by the camera recog-
nition system (for example a tractor
trailer, etc.) • The camera's field of view is not
well illuminated (either too dark or
too much reflection or too much
backlight that obscures the field of
view)
• The vehicle in front does not have their rear lights or their rear lights
does not turned ON or their rear
lights are located unusually.
• The outside brightness changes suddenly, for example when enter-
ing or exiting a tunnel
• When light coming from a street light or an oncoming vehicle is
reflected on a wet road surface
such as a puddle in the road
• The field of view in front is obstruct- ed by sun glare or head light of
oncoming vehicle.
• The windscreen glass is fogged up; a clear view of the road is obstruct-
ed
• The vehicle in front is driving errati- cally
• The vehicle is on unpaved or uneven rough surfaces, or road
with sudden gradient changes.

• The vehicle is driven near areascontaining metal substances as a
construction zone, railroad, etc.
• The vehicle drives inside a building, such as a basement parking lot
• The camera does not recognise the entire vehicle in front.
• The camera is damaged.
• The brightness outside is too low such as when the headlamps are
not on at night or the vehicle is
going through a tunnel.
• The shadow is on the road by a median strip, trees, etc.
• The vehicle drives through a toll- gate.
• The windscreen glass is fogged up; a clear view of the road is
obstructed.
• The rear part of the vehicle in front is not normally visible. (the vehicle
turns in other direction or the vehi-
cle is overturned.)
• The adverse road conditions cause excessive vehicle vibrations whilst
driving • The sensor recognition changes
suddenly when passing over a
speed bump
• The vehicle in front is moving verti- cally to the driving direction
• The vehicle in front is stopped ver- tically
• The vehicle in front is driving towards your vehicle or reversing
• You are on a roundabout and the vehicle in front circles
- Driving on a curve
The performance of the FCA system
may be limited when driving on a
curved road.
On curved roads, the other vehicle
on the same lane is not recognised
and the FCA system's performance
may be degraded. This may result in
unnecessary alarm or braking or no
alarm or braking when necessary.
Also, in certain instances the front
radar sensor or camera recognition
system may not detect the vehicle
travelling on a curved road.

Driving your vehicle
In these cases, the driver must main-
tain a safe braking distance, and if
necessary, depress the brake pedal
to reduce your driving speed in order
to maintain a safe distance.
The FCA system may recognise a
vehicle in the next lane when driving
on a curved road.
In this case, the system may unnec-
essarily alarm the driver and apply
the brake.
Always pay attention to road and
driving conditions, whilst driving. If
necessary, depress the brake pedal
to reduce your driving speed in order
to maintain a safe distance.
Also, when necessary depress the
accelerator pedal to prevent the sys-
tem from unnecessarily decelerating
your vehicle.
Check to be sure that the road con-
ditions permit safe operation of FCA.- Driving on a slope
The performance of the FCA decreas-
es whilst driving upward or downward
on a slope, not recognizing the vehi-
cle in front in the same lane. It may
unnecessarily produce the warning
message and the warning alarm, or it
may not produce the warning mes-
sage and the warning alarm at all.
When the FCA suddenly recognises
the vehicle in front whilst passing
over a slope, you may experience
sharp deceleration.
Always keep your eyes forward whilst
driving upward or downward on a
slope, and, if necessary, depress the
brake pedal to reduce your driving
speed in order to maintain distance.

- Changing lanes
When a vehicle changes lanes in
front of you, the FCA system may not
immediately detect the vehicle, espe-
cially if the vehicle changes lanes
abruptly. In this case, you must main-
tain a safe braking distance, and if
necessary, depress the brake pedal
to reduce your driving speed in order
to maintain a safe distance.When driving in stop-and-go traffic,
and a stopped vehicle in front of you
merges out of the lane, the FCA sys-
tem may not immediately detect the
new vehicle that is now in front of
you. In this case, you must maintain
a safe braking distance, and if nec-
essary, depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.
- Detecting the vehicle in front of you
If the vehicle in front of you has cargo
that extends rearward from the cab,
or when the vehicle in front of you
has higher ground clearance, addi-
tional special attention is required.
The FCA system may not be able to
detect the cargo extending from the
vehicle. In these instances, you must
maintain a safe braking distance
from the rearmost object, and if nec-
essary, depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain distance.

Detecting pedestrians
The sensor may be limited when:
• The pedestrian is not fully detectedby the camera recognition system,
for example, if the pedestrian is
leaning over or is not fully walking
upright
• The pedestrian is moving very quickly or appears abruptly in the
camera detection area
• The pedestrian is wearing clothing that easily blends into the back-
ground, making it difficult to be
detected by the camera recogni-
tion system
• The outside lighting is too bright (e.g. when driving in bright sunlight
or in sun glare) or too dark (e.g.
when driving on a dark rural road
at night)
• It is difficult to detect and distin- guish the pedestrian from other
objects in the surroundings, for
example, when there is a group of
pedestrians, cyclists or a large
crowd • There is an item similar to a per-
son's body structure
• The pedestrian is small
• The pedestrian has impaired mobility
• The sensor recognition is limited
• The radar sensor or camera is blocked with a foreign object or
debris
• Inclement weather such as heavy rain or snow obscures the field of
view of the radar sensor or camera
• When light coming from a street light or an oncoming vehicle is
reflected on a wet road surface
such as a puddle in the road
• The field of view in front is obstructed by sun glare
• The windscreen glass is fogged up; a clear view of the road is
obstructed
• The adverse road conditions cause excessive vehicle vibrations whilst
driving
• When the pedestrian suddenly interrupts in front of the vehicle
•Do not use the Forward
Collision avoidance Assist
(FCA) system when towing a
vehicle. Application of the
FCA system whilst towing
may adversely affect the safe-
ty of your vehicle or the tow-
ing vehicle.
•Use extreme caution when the
vehicle in front of you has
cargo that extends rearward
from the cab, or when the
vehicle in front of you has
higher ground clearance.
•The FCA system is designed
to detect and monitor the
vehicle ahead or detect a
pedestrian in the roadway
through radar signals and
camera recognition. It is not
designed to detect bicycles,
motorcycles, or smaller
wheeled objects such as lug-
gage bags, shopping carts, or
strollers.

[A] : Blind spot area
[B] : Closing at high speed
The Blind-spot Collision Warning
(BCW) system uses radar sensors in
the rear bumper to monitor and warn
the driver of an approaching vehicle
in the driver's blind spot area.
The system monitors the rear area of
the vehicle and provides information
to the driver with an audible alert and
an indicator on the outside rearview
mirrors.(1) BCW : Blind spot area
The BCW range varies relative to
vehicle speed. Note that if your
vehicle is travelling much faster
than the vehicles around you, the
warning will not occur.
(2) BCW : Closing at high speed The BCW-Closing at high speed
feature will alert you when a vehi-
cle is approaching in an adjacent
lane at a high rate of speed. If the
driver activates the turn signal
when the system detects an
oncoming vehicle, the system
sounds an audible alert. Distance
from the approaching vehicle can
be seen differently according to
the relative speed. (3) RCCW (Rear Cross-Traffic
Collision Warning)
The RCCW feature monitors
approaching cross traffic from the
left and right side of the vehicle
when your vehicle is in reverse.
The feature will operate when the
vehicle is moving in reverse below
about 6 mph (10 km/h). If oncom-
ing cross traffic is detected a
warning chime will sound.
Distance from the approaching
vehicle can be seen differently
according to the relative speed.
