Jam Assist (TJA)Smart Brake Support (SBS) forward
drive detection
The front radar sensor functions by
detecting the radio waves reflected off
a vehicle ahead or an obstruction sent
from the radar sensor.
The front radar sensor is mounted
behind the front emblem.
1. Front radar sensor
If “Safety and Driver Support Systems
Temporarily Disabled. Front Radar
Obscured. Drive Safely” is displayed on
the multi-information display of the
instrument cluster, clean the area
around the front radar sensor.
CAUTION
Heed the following precautions to

the radiator grille and front emblem
in and around the front radar sensor,
and do not replace the radiator grille
and front emblem with any product
that is not a genuine product
designed for use with the front radar
sensor.
The front radar sensor includes a
function for detecting soiling of the
radar sensor's front surface and
informing the driver, however,
