There is a wall or door made of
glass or a mirror in front.
The vehicle in front suddenly
swerves, accelerates, or decelerates.
A vehicle, motorcycle, bicycle or
pedestrian suddenly cuts in from the
side or suddenly runs in front of you.
Your vehicle is immediately behind
an obstacle after changing lanes.
There is a vehicle, motorcycle,
bicycle or pedestri an in a location
close to your vehicle’s bumper.
The speed difference between
your vehicle and an obstacle is 5
km/h (4 mph) or less (As braking is
performed once the obstacle is in

the obstacle, there may be some
cases when the obstacle is outside
the range of the camera’s field of
view.).

When there is an obstacle in front of you during driving, the system acti-
vates in the following sequence in order to warn the driver and to activate
braking control and the stop lights.
Following distance warning:
When the system determines that there is a risk of collision, an alert sounds
repeated short beeps and the indicators on the meter display illuminate to warn the
driver.
The Following Distance Warning operates when Adaptive Cruise Control is not acti-
vated.
When the driver depresses the brake pedal to decelerate and achieves a suitable
following distance, the warning is canceled.
First braking and warning:
When the system determines that there is a high risk of collision with an obstacle in
front, an alert sounds repeated short beeps and the indicators on the meter display
illuminate to warn the driver. Braking control may be activated and in some situa-
tions, engine output may also be controlled. If the system determines that the
amount of evasive action (braking, steering, etc.) taken by the driver has reduced
the risk of collision, braking activation is canceled.
Secondary braking and warning:
If the system then determines that the risk of collision is extremely high, the alert

changes to a continuous beeping sound and stronger braking control is activated.
Despite any evasive action ta ken by the driver, if the system subsequently deter-
mines that a collision is unavoidable, braking and engine output are controlled by
the system.
When the vehicle is comple tely stopped by the automatic braking system, a short
tone “3 intermittent beeps, 1 short beep and 1 long beep” will sound and braking will
be gradually released and the vehicle will start creeping. To stop the vehicle com-
pletely, depress the brake pedal after the vehicle has stopped.
●Neither first braking nor secondary brak ing will operate in the following cases.
• The vehicle speed is approximately 1 km/h (1 mph) or less (When the shift lever is in the N position and your vehicle speed is approximately 4 km/h (2 mph) or less)
or 200 km/h (125 mph) or more.
• VSC is active.
●If the system detects th e stop lights of the vehicle in front, your vehicle will start
decelerating earlier than if it does not.
●There are some cases where the first braking is applied for a longer period of time.
One of the reasons for this is due to a large speed difference with an obstacle in front. In those cases, stronger or weaker braking control may be activated.
After the Pre-Collision Braking System operation, a message appears and
stays on the meter display for a certain period of time.

Adaptive Cruise Control is designed for use on expressways, freeways,
toll roads, motorways and similar lim-
ited access roads. It is not intended to be used in city traffic. In the following
conditions, do not use Adaptive
Cruise Control. Doin g so may result in an accident.
●Ordinary roads (roads other than those mentioned above)
• Depending on the driving environ-
ment (complexity of roads and other factors), the system may not
be able to perform as the traffic
conditions require, and that may result in an accident.
●Sharp curves or winding roads
●Frozen roads, snow-covered roads
or other slippery road surfaces
• The tires may spin, causing loss of
control of the vehicle.
●Traffic conditions when frequent
acceleration and deceleration make
it difficult to maintain the following
distance
• It may not be possible for the sys-
tem to perform as the traffic condi-
tions require.

●If the alert/notification sounds fre-
quently, do not use Adaptive Cruise
Control.
●Even when the following distance is
short, the “Obstacle Detected” warning may not activate in the fol-
lowing situations.
• The difference in speed with the
vehicle in front is small. The two vehicles are traveling at almost the
same speed.
• The vehicle in front is traveling
faster than your vehicle. The follow-
ing distance is gradually increasing.
• Another vehicle cuts into your lane
very close to your vehicle.
• The vehicle in front decelerates
suddenly.
• There are repeated uphill and
downhill grades.
*: The recognition status of the lead
vehicle using the stereo camera
can be confirmed by the illumina-
tion status of the lead vehicle indi-
cator. (P.191)
NOTICE
●After Adaptive Cruise Control has
started, it maintains control continu-
ously according to the behavior of the vehicle in front. When your vehi-
cle comes to a stop because the
vehicle in front has stopped, the automatic braking function will be
canceled immediately after stop-
ping and the vehicle will start creep-
ing forward gradually (at the same time 3 intermittent beeps, 1 short
beep and 1 long beep will sound).
Be sure to depress the brake pedal and stop the vehicle completely.
Note that the vehicle is not main-
tained at a standstill position and will not automatica lly start moving
from a standstill position.
●Braking may not be sufficient
depending on the following condi-
tions. Depress the brake pedal and decelerate as necessary.
• Vehicle conditions (amount of load,
number of occupants, etc.)
• Road conditions (grade, slipperi-
ness, shape, bumps, etc.)
• Vehicle maintenance condition
(brake systems, tire wear, air pres- sure, etc.)
• The brakes are cold. (For example, just after the engine is started or the
outside temperature is low.)
• For a short period of time when
driving after the engine is started
until the engine has warmed-up
• The brakes are overheated on
downhill grades (braking perfor- mance may be reduced).
• In rain or after washing the vehicle (the brakes may become wet and
braking performance may be
reduced.)
