WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the AEB
with Pedestrian Detection system
could result in serious injury or death.
∙ The AEB with Pedestrian Detectionsystem is a supplemental aid to the
driver. It is not a replacement for the
driver’s attention to traffic conditions
or responsibility to drive safely. It can-
not prevent accidents due to care-
lessness or dangerous driving
techniques.
∙ The AEB with Pedestrian Detection system does not function in all driv-
ing, traffic, weather and road
conditions.
The AEB with Pedestrian Detection system
can assist the driver when there is a risk of
a forward collision with the vehicle ahead in
the traveling lane or with a pedestrian
ahead in the traveling lane. The AEB with Pedestrian Detection system
uses a radar sensor located on the front of
the vehicle
Bto measure the distance to
the vehicle ahead in the same lane. For
pedestrians, the AEB with Pedestrian De-
tection system uses a camera installed be-
hind the windshield
Ain addition to the

system cannot detect all vehicles or
pedestrians under all conditions.
∙ The AEB with Pedestrian Detection system does not detect the following
objects: – Small pedestrians (including small
children), animals and cyclists.
– Pedestrians in wheelchairs or us- ing mobile transport such as
scooters, child-operated toys, or
skateboards.
– Pedestrians who are seated or oth- erwise not in a full upright stand-
ing or walking position.
– Oncoming vehicles
– Crossing vehicles
– Obstacles on the roadside
∙ The AEB with Pedestrian Detection system has some performance
limitations.
– If a stationary vehicle is in the vehi- cle’s path, the AEB with Pedestrian
Detection system will not function
when the vehicle is driven at
speeds over approximately
50 mph (80 km/h). – For pedestrian detection, the AEB
with Pedestrian Detection system
will not function when the vehicle
is driven at speeds over approxi-
mately 37 mph (60 km/h) or below
approximately 6 mph (10 km/h).
∙ The AEB with Pedestrian Detection system will not function for pedestri-
ans in darkness or in tunnels, even if
there is street lighting in the area.
∙ The AEB with Pedestrian Detection system may not function if the vehicle
ahead is narrow (for example, a
motorcycle).
∙ The AEB with Pedestrian Detection system may not function if the speed
difference between the two vehicles is
too small.
∙ The radar sensor AEB with Pedestrian Detection system may not function
properly or detect a vehicle ahead in
the following conditions:
– Poor visibility (conditions such as rain, snow, fog, dust storms, sand-
storms, and road spray from other
vehicles)
Starting and driving5-103

– Driving on a steep downhill slopeor roads with sharp curves.
– Driving on a bumpy road surface, such as an uneven dirt road.
– If dirt, ice, snow or other material is covering the radar sensor area.
– Interference by other radar sources.
– The camera area of the windshield is fogged up, or covered with dirt,
water drops, ice, snow, etc.
– Strong light (for example, sunlight or high beams from oncoming ve-
hicles) enters the front camera.
Strong light causes the area
around the pedestrian to be cast in
a shadow, making it difficult to see.
– A sudden change in brightness oc- curs. (For example, when the ve-
hicle enters or exits a tunnel or a
shaded area or lightning flashes.)
– The poor contrast of a person to the background, such as having
clothing color or pattern which is
similar to the background. – The pedestrian’s profile is partially
obscured or unidentifiable due to
the pedestrian transporting lug-
gage, wearing bulky or very loose-
fitting clothing or accessories.
∙ The system performance may de- grade in the following conditions:
– The vehicle is driven on a slippery road.
– The vehicle is driven on a slope.
– Excessively heavy baggage is loaded in the rear seat or the trunk
room of your vehicle.
∙ The system is designed to automati- cally check the sensor’s (radar and
camera) functionality, within certain
limitations. The system may not de-
tect blockage of sensor areas covered
by ice, snow or stickers, for example.
In these cases, the system may not be
able to warn the driver properly. Be
sure that you check, clean and clear
sensor areas regularly. ∙ In some road and traffic conditions,
the AEB with Pedestrian Detection
system may unexpectedly apply par-
tial braking. When acceleration is nec-
essary, depress the accelerator pedal
to override the system.
∙ Excessive noise will interfere with the warning chime sound, and the chime
may not be heard.
