WARNING
■Limitations of the Intelligent Clearance Sonar system
Do not overly rely on the system, as doing so may lead to an accident.
● The driver is solely responsible for safe driving. Always drive carefully, tak-
ing care to observe your surroundings. The Intelligent Clearanc e Sonar
system is designed to provide support to lessen the severity of collisions.
However, it may not operate in some situations.
● The Intelligent Clearance Sonar system is not designed to stop the vehicle
completely. Additionally, even if the system has stopped the vehicle, it is
necessary to depress the brake pedal immediately as brake control will be
canceled after approximately 2 seconds.
■ To ensure the Intelligent Clearance Sonar system can operate pr operly
Observe the following precautions regarding the sensors ( P. 324). Failure
to do so may cause a sensor to not operate properly, and may cause an
accident.
● Do not modify, disassemble or paint the sensors.
● Do not replace a sensor with a part other than a genuine part.
● Do not subject a sensor or its surrounding area to a strong impact.
● Do not damage the sensors, and always keep them clean.
Observe the following precautions regarding the radar sensors ( P. 300).
Failure to do so may cause a radar sensor to not operate proper ly, and may
cause an accident.
● Do not modify, disassemble or paint the sensors.
● Do not replace a radar sensor with a part other than a genuine part.
● Do not subject a radar sensor or its surrounding area to a strong impact.
● Do not damage the radar sensors, and always keep the radar sensors and
their surrounding area on the bumper clean.
■ Handling the suspension
Do not modify the suspension, as changes to the height or inclination of the
vehicle may prevent the sensors from detecting objects correctly or cause
the system to not operate or operate unnecessarily.
