Vehicle recognition
OTM058128
Some vehicles in your lane cannot be
recognized by the sensor: - Narrow vehicles such as motorcycles or bicycles
- Vehicles offset to one side
- Slow-moving vehicles or sudden- decelerating vehicles
- Stopped vehicles (When the vehicle ahead drives away, the system may not
detect a stopped vehicle.)
- Vehicles with small rear profile such as trailers with no loads
A vehicle ahead cannot be recognized
correctly by the sensor if any of following
occurs: - When the vehicle is pointing upwards due to overloading in the luggage
compartment.
- While the steering wheel is operating.
- When driving to one side of the lane.
- When driving on narrow lanes or on curves.
- Apply the brake or accelerator pedal if necessary.
WARNING
When using the Smart Recuperation
System take the following precautions: • If an emergency stop is necessary,
you must apply the brakes.
• Keep a safe distance according to
road conditions and vehicle speed. If
the vehicle to vehicle distance is too close during a high-speed driving, a
serious collision may result.
• Always maintain sufficient braking
distance and decelerate your vehicle
by applying the brakes if necessary.
• The Smart Recuperation System
cannot recognize a stopped vehicle,
pedestrians or an oncoming vehicle.
Always look ahead cautiously to
prevent unexpected and sudden
situations from occurring.
• Vehicles moving in front of you with
a frequent lane changes may cause
a delay in the system's reaction or
may cause the system to react to a
vehicle actually in an adjacent lane.
Always drive cautiously to prevent
unexpected and sudden situations
from occurring.
• The Smart Recuperation System
may not recognize complex driving
situations so always pay attention to
driving conditions and control your
vehicle speed.
NOTICE
The Smart Recuperation System may
not operate temporarily due to: • Electrical interference
• Modifying the suspension
• Differences of tire abrasion or tire
pressure
• Installing different type of tires

WARNING
• To prevent unintentional movement
when stopped and leaving the
vehicle, do not use the P (Park)
position in place of the parking brake.
Set the parking brake and make sure
the vehicle is securely positioned in
P (Park).
• Never allow anyone who is unfamiliar
with the vehicle to touch the parking
brake. If the parking brake is released
unintentionally, serious injury may
occur.
• All vehicles should always have
the parking brake fully engaged
when parking to avoid inadvertent
movement of the car which can injure
occupants or pedestrians.
NOTICE
• A click sound may be heard while
operating or releasing the EPB, but
these conditions are normal and
indicate that the EPB is functioning
properly.
• When leaving your keys with a
parking lot attendant or valet, make
sure to inform him/her how to
operate the EPB.
• The EPB may malfunction if you drive with the EPB applied.
• When you automatically release EPB
by depressing the accelerator pedal,
depress it slowly.

Certification label
OBH059070
The certification label is located on the
driver's door sill at the center pillar and
shows the maximum allowable weight of
the fully loaded vehicle. This is called the
GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating). The
GVWR includes the weight of the vehicle,
all occupants, fuel and cargo.
This label also tells you the maximum
weight that can be supported by the
front and rear axles, called Gross Axle
Weight Rating (GAWR).
The total weight of the vehicle, including
all occupants, accessories, cargo, and
trailer tongue load must not exceed the
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) or
the Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR).
To find out the actual loads on your front
and rear axles, you need to go to a weigh
station and weigh your vehicle. Be sure
to spread out your load equally on both
sides of the centerline.
WARNING
Overloading • Never exceed the GVWR for your
vehicle, the GAWR for either the front
or rear axle and vehicle capacity
weight. Exceeding these ratings
can affect your vehicle's handling
and braking ability, and cause an
accident.
• Do not overload your vehicle.
Overloading your vehicle can cause
heat buildup in your vehicle's tires
and possible tire failure, increased
stopping distances and poor vehicle
handling-all of which may result in a
crash.
NOTICE
Overloading your vehicle may cause
damage. Repairs would not be covered
by your warranty. Do not overload your
vehicle.
WARNING
If you carry items inside your vehicle
(e.g., suitcases, tools, packages, or
anything else), they are moving as fast
as the vehicle. If you have to stop or
turn quickly, or if there is a crash, the
items will keep going and can cause
an injury if they strike the driver or a
passenger. • Put items in the cargo area of your
vehicle. Try to spread the weight
evenly.
• Do not stack items, like suitcases,
inside the vehicle above the tops of
the seats.
• Do not leave an unsecured child
restraint in your vehicle.
• When you carry something inside the
vehicle, secure it.
