NOTE:∙ The FEB with Pedestrian Detection sys-
tem will be automatically turned on
when the engine is restarted.
∙ The PFCW system is integrated into the
FEB with Pedestrian Detection system.
There is not a separate selection in the
vehicle information display for the
PFCW system. When the FEB with Pe-
destrian Detection is turned off, the
PFCW system 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 accordance
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 vehicle’s path, the FEB with Pedestrian Detec-
tion system will not function when the
vehicle is driven at speeds over ap-
proximately 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 approximately
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 Pedestrian Detection system will not issue the first
warning and will not push the accelerator
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 difference
between the two vehicles is too small.
∙ The radar sensor FEB with Pedestrian Detection system may not function prop-
erly or detect a vehicle ahead in the fol-
lowing conditions:
– Poor visibility (conditions such as rain, snow, fog, dust storms, sandstorms,
and road spray from other vehicles).
– Driving on a steep downhill slope or roads with sharp curves.
– Driving on a bumpy road surface, such as an uneven dirt road.
