I-DC SYSTEM OPERATION
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the I-
DC system could result in serious
personal injury or death.
.When the vehicle ahead detection
indicator light is not illuminated,
system will not control the vehi-
cle or warn the driver.
. Never place your foot under the
brake pedal. Your foot may be
caught when the system controls
the brake.
. Depending on the position of the
accelerator pedal, the system
may not be able to assist the
driver to release the accelerator
pedal appropriately.
The I-DC system brakes and moves the
accelerator pedal upward according to
the distance from and the relative speed
of the vehicle ahead to help assist the
driver in maintaining a following distance.
The system will decelerate as necessary
and if the vehicle ahead comes to a stop,
the vehicle decelerates to a standstill.
However, the I-DC system can only apply

switch to the brake pedal.
NOTE:
.The stop lights of the vehicle come
on when braking is performed by
the I-DC system.
. When the brake operates, a noise
may be heard and/or vibration may
be felt. This is not a malfunction.
Overriding the system:
The following driver’s operation overrides
the system operation.
. When the driver depresses the accel-
erator pedal even further while the
system is moving the accelerator
pedal upward, the I-DC system control
of the accelerator pedal is canceled.
. When the driver’s foot is on the accel-
erator pedal, the brake control by the
system is not operated.
. When the driver’s foot is on the brake
pedal, neither the brake control nor
the alert by the system operates.
. When the Intelligent Cruise Control
(ICC) system is set, the I-DC system
will be inactive.Approach warning
If your vehicle comes closer to the vehicle
ahead due to rapid deceleration of that
vehicle or if another vehicle cuts in, the
system warns the driver with the chime
and I-DC system display. Decelerate by
depressing the brake pedal to maintain a
safe vehicle distance if:
.The chime sounds.
. The vehicle ahead detection indicator
blinks.
The warning chime may not sound in
some cases when there is a short dis-
tance between vehicles. Some examples
are:
. When the vehicles are traveling at the
same speed and the distance be-
tween vehicles is not changing
. When the vehicle ahead is traveling
faster and the distance between ve-
hicles is increasing
. When a vehicle cuts in near your
vehicle
The warning chime will not sound when
your vehicle approaches vehicles that are
parked or moving slowly.
NOTE:
The approach warning chime may
sound and the system display may
blink when the radar sensor detects
objects on the side of the vehicle or on the side of the road. This may cause the
I-DC system to decelerate or accelerate
the vehicle. The radar sensor may de-
tect these objects when the vehicle is
driven on winding roads, narrow roads,
hilly roads or when entering or exiting a
curve. In these cases you will have to
manually control the proper distance
ahead of your vehicle.
Also, the sensor sensitivity can be af-
fected by vehicle operation (steering
maneuver or driving position in the lane)
or traffic or vehicle condition (for example,
if a vehicle is being driven with some
damage).

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The sensor for the I-DC systemis
located below the front bumper.
The I-DC system is designed to automa-
tically check the sensor’s operation. When
the sensor is covered with dirt or is
obstructed, the system will automatically
be canceled. If the sensor is covered with
ice, a transparent or translucent vinyl bag,
etc., the I-DC system may not detect
them. In these instances, the I-DC system
may not be able to decelerate the vehicle
properly. Be sure to check and clean the
sensor regularly.
To keep the I-DC system operating prop-
erly, be sure to observe the following:

Indicators and warnings (on the vehicle
information display)
AEB system warning light (on the instru-
ment panel)
Center multi-function control panel
AEB SYSTEM OPERATION
The AEB system operates at speeds
above approximately 3 MPH (5 km/h).
If a risk of a forward collision is detected,
the AEB system will provide the first
warning to the driver by blinking the
vehicle ahead detection indicator in the
vehicle information display and providing
an audible warning. In addition, the AEB
system pushes the accelerator pedal up.
If the driver releases the accelerator
pedal, then the system applies partial
braking.
If the driver applies the brakes quickly and
forcefully after the warning, and the AEB
system detects that there is still the
possibility of a forward collision, the
system will automatically increase the
braking force.
If a forward collision is imminent and the
driver does not take action, the AEB
system issues the second visual (flashing)
and audible warning and automatically
applies harder braking.
NOTE:
The vehicle’s stop lights come on when
braking is performed by the AEB sys-
tem.
Depending on vehicle speed and distance
to the vehicle ahead, as well as driving
and roadway conditions, the system may
