N00577300125
The Forward Collision Mitigation system
(FCM) is designed to help reduce the risk of a
collision with a vehicle or a pedestrian
straight ahead of your vehicle. The FCM uses
a sensor (A) to determine the distance and
relative speed to a vehicle and a pedestrian in
front. The FCM is not designed as an auto-
matic driving system or as a collision avoid-
ance system.
When your vehicle is approaching a vehicle
or a pedestrian straight-ahead in your path
and the FCM judges that there is the risk of a
collision, the system will give audible and
visual warnings.
When the FCM judges that a collision with
the vehicle or the pedestrian straight-ahead is
imminent, the system will automatically
apply moderate braking to warn you to apply
the brakes immediately.
When the FCM judges that a collision with
the vehicle or the pedestrian straight-ahead is
highly unavoidable, the system will apply
emergency braking to reduce the severity of
the collision and, if possible, to avoid the col-
lision. Stop lights are illuminated during automatic
braking.Forward Collision Mitiga-
tion system (FCM)

 The FCM may not detect a pedestrian in certain situations. Some of these include:• If the pedestrian is shorter than approxi-mately 3.2 feet (1 m) or taller than approximately 6.5 feet (2 m).• If the pedestrian is wearing loose-fittingclothes.• If part of a pedestrian’s body is hidden,such as when holding an umbrella, large bag, etc.• If a pedestrian bends forward, sits or lieson the road.• When a pedestrian is pushing/pullingsomething, such as a stroller, bicycle orwheelchair.• When pedestrians gather in a group.• When a pedestrian clothing appears tobe nearly the same color or brightness as its surroundings.• When a pedestrian is very close to anobject, such as a vehicle.• When a pedestrian is in a dark area, suchas at night or in a tunnel.WA R N I N G
• When a pedestrian is walking fast orrunning.• When a pedestrian suddenly rushes in front of the vehicle.• When the position of a pedestrian is closeto the edge of the vehicle.
 When the system recognizes driver’s steering or accelerating actions as evasiveactions to avoid a collision, FCM control and alarm functions may be canceled. In certain situations, though there is little or no risk of a collision, the FCM may activate. Examples include: • When overtaking a vehicle.• When driving on a curve.• When there is a road side object (B) thatreflects the radar sensor signal, such as a road sign.• When approaching a gate, a railroad crossing, an underpass, a narrow bridge, manhole lid or a speed bump.• When driving under an overpass orpedestrian bridge.• When driving in a narrow tunnel.• When driving in a parking structure.WA R N I N G
