ICC SYSTEM OPERATION
The ICC system maintains a selected distance
from the vehicle in front of you within the
speed range 0 to 90 mph (0 to 144 km/h) up
to the set speed. The set speed can be se-
lected by the driver between 20 to 90 mph
(32 to 144 km/h), based on road conditions.
The vehicle travels at the set speed when the
road ahead is clear.
The ICC system is designed to maintain a
selected distance from the vehicle in front of
you and can reduce the speed to match a
slower vehicle ahead. The system will decel-
erate the vehicle as necessary and if the ve-
hicle ahead comes to a stop, the vehicle de-
celerates to a standstill. However, the ICC
system can only apply up to 40% of the vehi-
cle’s total braking power.
This system should only be used when traffic
conditions allow vehicle speeds to remain
fairly constant or when vehicle speeds
change gradually. If a vehicle moves into the
traveling lane ahead or if a vehicle traveling
ahead rapidly decelerates, the distance be-
tween vehicles may become closer because
the ICC system cannot decelerate the vehicle
quickly enough. If this occurs, the ICC system

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.

3.Use Air Conditioning (A/C) at Higher
Vehicle Speeds
∙ Below 40 mph (64 km/h), it is more efficient to open windows to cool the
vehicle due to reduced engine load.
∙ Above 40 mph (64 km/h), it is more efficient to use A/C to cool the vehicle
due to increased aerodynamic drag.
∙ Recirculating the cool air in the cabin when the A/C is on reduces cooling
load.
4. Drive at Economical Speeds and Dis-
tances
∙ Observing the speed limit and not ex- ceeding 60 mph (97 km/h) (where le-
gally allowed) can improve fuel effi-
ciency due to reduced aerodynamic
drag.
∙ Maintaining a safe following distance behind other vehicles reduces unnec-
essary braking.
∙ Safely monitoring traffic to anticipate changes in speed permits reduced
braking and smooth acceleration
changes.
∙ Select a gear range suitable to road conditions. 5.
Use Cruise Control
∙ Using cruise control during highway driving helps maintain a steady speed.
∙ Cruise control is particularly effective in providing fuel savings when driving
on flat terrains.
6. Plan for the Shortest Route
∙ Utilize a map or navigation system to determine the best route to save time.
7. Avoid Idling
∙ Shutting off your engine when safe for stops exceeding 30–60 seconds saves
fuel and reduces emissions.
8. Buy an Automated Pass for Toll Roads
∙ Automated passes permit drivers to use special lanes to maintain cruising
speed through the toll and avoid stop-
ping and starting.
9. Winter Warm Up
∙ Limit idling time to minimize impact to fuel economy.
∙ Vehicles typically need no more than 30 seconds of idling at start-up to ef-
fectively circulate the engine oil before
driving. ∙ Your vehicle will reach its ideal operat-
ing temperature more quickly while
driving versus idling.
10. Keeping your Vehicle Cool
∙ Park your vehicle in a covered parking area or in the shade whenever pos-
sible.
∙ When entering a hot vehicle, opening the windows will help to reduce the
inside temperature faster, resulting in
reduced demand on your A/C system.
