BSM (Blind Spot Moni-
tor)*
The Blind Spot Monitor is a
system that uses rear side
radar sensors installed on the
inner side of the rear bumper
on the left and right side to
assist the driver in confirming
safety when changing lanes.
WARNING
■Cautions regarding the use of
the system
●The driver is solely responsible for safe driving. Always drive safely,
taking care to observe your sur- roundings.
●The Blind Spot Monitor is a supple-mentary function which alerts the driver that a vehicle is in a blind
spot of the outside rear view mirrors or is approaching rapidly from
behind into a blind spot. Do not overly rely on the Blind Spot Moni-tor. As the function cannot judge if it
is safe to change lanes, over reli- ance could lead to an accident resulting in death or serious injury.
As the system may not function cor- rectly under certain conditions, the
driver’s own visual confirmation of safety is necessary.

5-4. Using the driving support systems
■ECB (Electronically Con-
trolled Brake System)
The electronically controlled sys-
tem generates braking force corre-
sponding to the brake operation
■ABS (Anti-lock Brake System)
Helps to prevent wheel lock when
the brakes are applied suddenly, or
if the brakes are applied while driv-
ing on a slippery road surface
■Brake assist
Generates an increased level of
braking force after the brake pedal
is depressed when the system
detects a panic stop situation
■VSC (Vehicle Stability Control)
Helps the driver to control skidding
when swerving suddenly or turning
on slippery road surfaces.
■Trailer Sway Control
Helps the driver to control trailer
sway by selectively applying brake
pressure for individual wheels and
reducing driving torque when trailer
sway is detected.
■TRC (Traction Control)
Helps to maintain drive power and
prevent the drive wheels from spin-
ning when starting the vehicle or
accelerating on slippery roads
■Active Cornering Assist (ACA)
Helps to prevent the vehicle from
drifting to the outer side by perform-
ing inner wheel brake control when
attempting to accelerate while turn-
ing
■Hill-start assist control
Helps to reduce the backward
movement of the vehicle when
starting on an uphill
■EPS (Electric Power Steering)
Employs an electric motor to
reduce the amount of effort needed
to turn the steering wheel
■Emergency brake signal
When the brakes are applied sud-
denly, the stop lights automatically
flash to alert the vehicle behind.
■The Secondary Collision
Brake
When the SRS airbag sensor
detects a collision and the system
operates, the brakes and brake
lights are automatically controlled
to reduce the vehicle speed and
help reduce the possibility of further
damage due to a secondary colli-
Driving assist systems
To keep driving safety and per-
formance, the f ollowing sys-
tems operate automatically in
response to various driving
situations. Be aware, however,
that these systems are supple-
mentary and should not be
relied upon too heavily when
operating the vehicle.
Summary of the driving
assist systems

408
Owners Manual_Europe_M42D76_en
5-4. Using the driving support systems
●The accelerator pedal is depressed
●The parking brake is engaged
●2 seconds at maximum elapsed after the brake pedal is released
●Power switch is turned to OFF
■Sounds and vibrations caused by the ABS, brake assist, VSC, Trailer Sway Control, TRC and hill-start
assist control systems
●A sound may be heard from the motor
compartment when the brake pedal is depressed repeatedly, when the EV system is started or just after the vehi-
cle begins to move. This sound does not indicate that a malfunction has occurred in any of these systems.
●Any of the following conditions may occur when the above systems are
operating. None of these indicates that a malfunction has occurred.• Vibrations may be felt through the
vehicle body and steering. • A motor sound may be heard also after the vehicle comes to a stop.
■ECB operating sound
ECB operating sound may be heard in the following cases, but it does not indi-cate that a malfunction has occurred.
●Operating sound heard from the motor compartment when the brake pedal is
operated.
●Operating sound heard from the motor
compartment when one or two min- utes passed after the stop of the EV system.
■Active Cornering Assist operation
sounds and vibrations
When Active Cornering Assist is oper- ated, operation sounds and vibrations
may be generated from the brake sys- tem, but this is not a malfunction.
■EPS operation sound
When the steering wheel is operated, a
motor sound (whirring sound) may be heard. This does not indicate a malfunc-tion.
■Automatic reactivation of TRC,
Trailer Sway Control and VSC sys- tems
After turning the TRC, Trailer Sway Con-
trol and VSC systems off, the systems will be automatically re-enabled in the following situations:
●When the power switch is turned off
●If only the TRC system is turned off, the TRC will turn on when vehicle speed increases. If both the TRC and
VSC systems are turned off, auto- matic re-enabling will not occur when vehicle speed increases.
■Operating conditions of Active Cor-
nering Assist
The system operates when the following occurs.
●TRC/VSC can operate
●The driver is attempting to accelerate while turning
●The system detects that the vehicle is drifting to the outer side
●The brake pedal is released
■Reduced effectiveness of the EPS system
The effectiveness of the EPS system is
reduced to prevent the system from overheating when there is frequent steering input over an extended period
of time. The steering wheel may feel heavy as a result. Should this occur, refrain from excessive steering input or
stop the vehicle and turn the EV system off. The EPS system should return to normal within 10 minutes.
■Operating conditions of emergency
brake signal
When the following conditions are met, the emergency brake signal will operate:
●The emergency flashers are off.
●Actual vehicle speed is over 55 km/h (35 mph).
●The system judges from the vehicle deceleration that it is a sudden brak-ing operation.

■Automatic system cancelation of
emergency brake signal
The emergency brake signal will be can- celed in any of the following situations:
●The emergency flashers are turned on.
●The system judges from the vehicle deceleration that is not a sudden brak-
ing operation
■Secondary Collision Brake operat- ing conditions
The system operates when the SRS air-
bag sensor detects a collision while the vehicle is in motion. However, the sys-tem does not operate when components
are damaged.
■Secondary Collision Brake auto- matic cancellation
The system is automatically canceled in
any of the following situations.
●The vehicle speed drops below
approximately 0 km/h (0 mph)
●A certain amount of time elapses
during operation

the vehicle in front of you, especially in the following situations:
●When driving on dirt, gravel or
snow-covered roads
●When driving with tire chains
●When driving over bumps in the road
●When driving over roads with pot-holes or uneven surfaces
■TRC/VSC may not operate effec-tively when
Directional control and power may not be achievable while driving on slip-pery road surfaces, even if the
TRC/VSC system is operating. Drive the vehicle carefully in condi-tions where stability and power may
be lost.
■Active Cornering Assist does not
operate effectively when
●Do not overly rely on Active Corner- ing Assist. Active Cornering Assist
may not operate effectively when accelerating down slopes or driving on slippery road surfaces.
●When Active Cornering Assist fre-quently operates, Active Cornering
Assist may temporarily stop operat- ing to ensure proper operation of the brakes, TRC and VSC.
