•Driving on a curve
Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not detect other
vehicles, pedestrians in front
of you on curved roads
adversely affecting the per-
formance of the sensors.
This may result in no warning,
braking assist when neces-
sary.
When driving on a curve, you
must maintain a safe braking
distance, and if necessary,
steer the vehicle and depress
the brake pedal to reduce
your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.
Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist may detect a vehicle,
pedestrian in the next lane or
outside the lane when driving
on a curved road.
If this occurs, the function
may unnecessarily warn the
driver and control the brake.
Always check the traffic con-
ditions around the vehicle.
•Driving on a slope
Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not detect other
vehicles, pedestrians in front
of you while driving uphill or
downhill adversely affecting
the performance of the sen-
sors.
This may result in unneces-
sary warning, braking assist
or no warning, braking assist
when necessary.
Also, vehicle speed may rap-
idly decrease when a vehicle,
pedestrian ahead is suddenly
detected.WARNING

Driving your vehicle
Always have your eyes on the
road while driving uphill or
downhill and if necessary,
steer your vehicle and
depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in
order to maintain a safe dis-
tance.
•Changing lanes
[A] : Your vehicle, [B] : Lane changing vehicle
When a vehicle moves into
your lane from an adjacent
lane, it cannot be detected by
the sensor until it is in the
sensor's detection range.
Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not immediately
detect the vehicle when the
vehicle changes lanes abrupt-
ly. In this case, you must
maintain a safe braking dis-
tance, and if necessary, steer
your vehicle and depress the
brake pedal to reduce your
driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.

[A] : Your vehicle, [B] : Lane changing vehicle,
[C] : Same lane vehicle
When a vehicle in front of you
merges out of the lane,
Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not immediately
detect the vehicle that is now
in front of you.
In this case, you must main-
tain a safe braking distance,
and if necessary, steer your
vehicle and depress the brake
pedal to reduce your driving
speed in order to maintain a
safe distance.
•Detecting vehicle
If the vehicle in front of you
has cargo that extends rear-
ward from the cab, or when
the vehicle in front of you has
higher ground clearance,
additional special attention is
required. Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist may not be
able to detect the cargo
extending from the vehicle.
In these instances, you must
maintain a safe braking dis-
tance from the rearmost
object, and if necessary, steer
your vehicle and depress the
brake pedal to reduce your
driving speed in order to
maintain distance.

Lane Keeping Assist is designed to
help detect lane markings while driv-
ing over a certain speed. The system
will warn the driver if the vehicle
leaves the lane without using the turn
signal, or will automatically assist the
driver’s steering to help prevent the
vehicle from departing the lane.Detecting sensor
[1] : Front view camera
The front view camera is used as a
detecting sensor to detect lane
markings (or road edges).
Refer to the picture above for the
detailed location of the detecting
sensor.
