INTELLIGENT DRIVER ALERTNESS (I-
DA) SYSTEM OPERATION
If the system detects driver fatigue or that
driver attention is decreasing, the mes-
sage “Take a break?” appears in the
vehicle information display and a chime
sounds when the vehicle is driven at
speeds above 37 MPH (60 km/h).
The system continuously monitors driver
attention and can provide multiple warn-
ings per trip. The system resets and starts
reassessing driving style and steering
behavior when the ignition switch is
cycled from the ON to the OFF position
and back to the ON position.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the
AEB with pedestrian detection sys-
tem could result in serious injury or
death.
. The AEB with pedestrian detec-
tion system is a supplemental aid
to the driver. It is not a replace-
ment for the driver’s attention to
traffic conditions or responsibility
to drive safely. It cannot prevent
accidents due to carelessness or
dangerous driving techniques.
. The AEB with pedestrian detec-
tion system does not function in
all driving, traffic, weather and
road conditions.
The AEB with pedestrian detection sys-
tem 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.

WAF0286X
The AEB with pedestrian detection sys-
tem uses a radar sensorlocated on the
front of the vehicle to measure the
distance to the vehicle ahead in the same
lane.
For pedestrians, the AEB system uses a
camera
installed behind the windshield
in addition to the radar sensor.JVS1117X

AEB WITH PEDESTRIAN DETECTION
SYSTEM OPERATION
The AEB with pedestrian detection sys-
tem will function when your vehicle is
driven at speeds above approximately 3
MPH (5 km/h).
For the pedestrian detection function, the
Page 341 of 516

AEB with pedestrian detection system
operates at speeds between 6 – 37 MPH
(10 – 60 km/h).
If a risk of a forward collision is detected,
the AEB with pedestrian detection system
will firstly provide the warning to the
driver by flashing the warning (yellow) in
the vehicle information display and pro-
viding an audible alert.
If the driver applies the brakes quickly and
forcefully after the warning, and the AEB
with pedestrian detection system detects
that there is still the possibility of a
forward collision, the system will auto-
matically increase the braking force.
If the driver does not take action, the AEB
with pedestrian detection system issues
the second visual (flashing) (red) and
audible warning. If the driver releases
the accelerator pedal, then the system
applies partial braking.
If the risk of a collision becomes immi-
nent, the AEB with pedestrian detection
system applies harder braking automati-
cally.
While the AEB with pedestrian detection
system is operating, you may hear the
sound of brake operation. This is normal
and indicates that the AEB with pedes-
trian detection system is operating prop-
erly.NOTE:
The vehicle’s stop lights come on when
braking is performed by the AEB with
pedestrian detection system.
Depending on vehicle speed and distance
to the vehicle or pedestrian ahead, as well
as driving and roadway conditions, the
system may help the driver avoid a
forward collision or may help mitigate
the consequences of a collision should
one be unavoidable.
If the driver is handling the steering
wheel, accelerating or braking, the AEB
with pedestrian detection system will
function later or will not function.
The automatic braking will cease under
the following conditions:
.
When the steering wheel is turned as
far as necessary to avoid a collision.
. When the accelerator pedal is de-
pressed.
. When there is no longer a vehicle or
pedestrian detected ahead.
If the AEB with pedestrian detection
system has stopped the vehicle, the
vehicle will remain at a standstill for
approximately 2 seconds before the
brakes are released.

AEB WITH PEDESTRIAN DETECTION
SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for the AEB with pedestrian
detection system. Failure to operate
the vehicle in accordance with these
system limitations could result in
serious injury or death.
.The AEB with pedestrian detec-
tion system cannot detect all
vehicles or pedestrians under all
conditions.
. The AEB with pedestrian detec-
tion 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 otherwise not in a full upright
standing or walking position. — Obstacles on the roadway
— Oncoming vehicles
— Crossing vehicles
— Obstacles on the roadside
. The AEB with pedestrian detec-
tion system has some perfor-
mance limitations.
— If a stationary vehicle is in the
vehicle’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 approximately 37 MPH
(60 km/h) or below approxi-
mately 6 MPH (10 km/h).
. The AEB with pedestrian detec-
tion system may not function for
pedestrians in darkness or in
tunnels, even if there is street
lighting in the area.
. For pedestrians, the AEB with
pedestrian detection system will
not issue the first warning. .
The AEB with pedestrian detec-
tion system may not function if
the vehicle ahead is narrow (for
example a motorcycle).
. The AEB with pedestrian detec-
tion system may not function if
speed difference between the
two vehicles is too small.
. The radar sensor may not func-
tion properly or detect a vehicle
ahead in the following 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 sur- face, such as an uneven dirt
road.
— If dirt, ice, snow or other ma- terial is covering the radar
sensor area.
— Interference by other radar sources.
. The camera may not function
properly or detect a vehicle
ahead in the following conditions:
Starting and driving5-101
Page 344 of 516

5-102Starting and driving
— The camera area of wind-shield is fogged up, or covered
with dirt, water drops, ice,
snow, etc.
— Strong light (for example, sun- light or high beams from on-
coming vehicles) 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 bright- ness occurs. (For example,
when the vehicle 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 pat-
tern which is similar to the
background.
— The pedestrian’s profile is par- tially obscured or unidentifi-
able due to the pedestrian
transporting cargo, wearing
bulky or very loose-fitting
clothing or accessories. .
The system performance may
degrade in the following condi-
tions:
— 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
cargo area of your vehicle.
. The system is designed to auto-
matically check the sensor (radar
and camera)’s functionality, with-
in certain limitations. The system
may not detect blockage of sen-
sor 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 condi-
tions, the AEB with pedestrian
detection system may unexpect-
edly apply partial braking. When
acceleration is necessary, de-
press the accelerator pedal to
override the system. .
The AEB with pedestrian detec-
tion system may operate when
the following are similar to the
outlines of vehicles or pedes-
trians, or if they are the same size
and position as a vehicle’s tail
lights.
— Paint or a pattern on the road
or a wall (including faded and
unusual road markings).
— A shape formed by road struc- tures ahead (such as tunnels,
viaducts, traffic signs, reflec-
tors installed on the side of
vehicles, reflection sheets,
and guardrails).
. The AEB with pedestrian detec-
tion system may react to:
— Obstacles on the roadside
(traffic sign, guardrail, pedes-
trian, vehicle, etc.)
