Hill Descent Control System
When driving down hills where engine braking is not enough to decelerate the 
vehicle, this system helps maintain a co nstant vehicle speed without needing to 
depress the brake pedal.
The system operates under the following conditions.
• Driving at a speed between about 2-12 mph (3-20 km/h).
• Driving downhill.
• Accelerator pedal and brake pedal are not depressed.

■Driver Information Interface Display
1Hill Descent Control System
The brake lights automati cally come on while the 
system is in operation.
The system may not operate  when driving down a 
gentle slope. Check the Hill  Descent Control System 
indicator to see if the system is in operation.
The system may activate even when not driving 
downhill, such as when  the vehicle leans while 
driving over uneven surfaces.
3WARNING
Hill descent control cannot maintain a 
constant vehicle speed  in every situation.
When driving down a very steep hill or on 
slippery road surfaces, the vehicle may not 
be able to maintain the vehicle speed and 
could cause a crash, resulting in serious 
injury or death.
Since Hill Descent Control is not designed 
to increase the  limits of vehicle 
performance, the driver must always be 
aware of road surface conditions and drive 
safely.

The system has three alert stages for a possible collision. However, depending on  circumstances, the CMBSTM may not go through all of 
the stages before initiating the last stage.

■Environmental conditions
• Driving in bad weather (rain, fog, snow, etc.).
• Sudden changes between light and dark, such  as the entrance or exit of a tunnel 
or the shadows of trees, buildings, etc.
• Driving into low sunlight (e.g., at dawn or dusk).
• Strong light is reflected onto vehicles, pedestrians, moving bicycles, or road 
surfaces.
• Water is sprayed by or snow blown from a vehicle ahead.
• Driving at night or in a dark place such as a tunnel (due to low-light conditions, 
vehicles, pedestrians, or moving bicycles may not be illuminated).
■Roadway conditions
• Driving on curvy, winding, undulating, or sloping roads.
• There is a film of water or puddles on the road surface.
• Driving on rutted roads (snowy or unpaved roads, etc.).
• Your vehicle is strongly shaken on uneven road surfaces.
■CMBSTM Conditions and Limitations1CMBSTM Conditions and Limitations
Have your vehicle checked by a dealer if you find any 
unusual behavior of the system (e.g., the warning 
message appears too frequently).

Driving
Low Speed Braking Control*
Using sonar sensors located on the front a nd rear bumpers, and the front grille, this 
system can detect if there is danger of a potential collision with a wall or other 
obstacle during normal driving or when the accelerator pedal is depressed with too 
much force. The system then assists in  avoiding collisions and reducing damage 
from impact through assistive braking a nd/or assistive driving power suppression.1Low Speed Braking Control*
If the Low Speed Braking  Control activates in a 
situation where you do not  want automatic brake 
application (such as when  the vehicle is between two 
railroad crossing gates), simply press the brake pedal 
to deactivate the system and then continue to drive 
as intended.
3WARNING
The Low Speed Braking Control System 
cannot avoid all collisions and may not 
reduce damage in each situation where the 
accelerator is mistakenly or aggressively 
pressed. Overreliance on the system may 
result in a collision with serious injury or 
death. Always check your surroundings, 
your shift position, and your pedal use.
Driver remains responsible for safely 
operating the vehicle.
* Not available on all models

Driving
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)  with Low Speed Follow
Helps maintain a constant vehicle speed and a set following-interval behind a vehicle 
detected ahead of yours and, if the detect ed vehicle comes to a stop, can decelerate 
and stop your ve hicle, without you having to keep your foot on the brake or the 
accelerator.
When ACC with Low Speed Follo w slows your vehicle by applying the brakes, your 
vehicle’s brake lights will illuminate.
• Vehicle speed for ACC wi th Low Speed Follow: A vehicle is detected ahead 
within ACC with Low  Speed Follow range – ACC with Low Speed Follow 
operates at speeds up  to 90 mph (145 km/h).
No vehicle is detected within  ACC with Low Speed Follow range  – ACC 
with Low Speed Follow operates at th e speed of 25 mph (40 km/h) or above.

1Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low Speed Follow
3WARNING
Improper use of ACC with Low Speed 
Follow can lead to a crash.
Use ACC with Low Speed Follow only 
when driving on expressways or freeways 
and in good road and weather conditions.
3WARNING
ACC with Low Speed Follow has limited 
braking capability and may not stop your 
vehicle in time to avoid a collision with a 
vehicle that quickly stops in front of you.
Always be prepared to apply the brake 
pedal if the conditions require.
When to use
A front wide view camera is 
located behind the rearview 
mirror.

Important Reminder
As with any system, there are limits to ACC with Low 
Speed Follow. Use the brake pedal whenever 
necessary, and always keep a safe interval between 
your vehicle and other vehicles.
You can read about handling information for the 
camera equipped with this system.

When not using ACC with Low Speed Follow: Turn 
off adaptive cruise by  pressing the   button.
3WARNING
Exiting a vehicle that has been stopped 
while the ACC with Low Speed Follow 
system is operating can result in the 
vehicle moving without operator control.
A vehicle that moves without operator 
control can cause a crash, resulting in 
serious injury or death.
Never exit a vehicle when the vehicle is 
stopped by ACC with Low Speed Follow.

Continued
Driving
Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)
Provides steering input to help keep the vehicle in the middle of a detected lane and 
provides tactile and visual al erts if the vehicle is detected drifting out of its lane.
■Steering input assist
The system applies torque to the steerin g to keep the vehicle between the left and 
right lane lines. The applied torque becomes stronger as the vehicle gets closer to 
either of the lane lines.
■Tactile and vi sual alerts
Rapid vibrations on the steering wheel and a warning display alert you that the 
vehicle is drifting out of a detected lane.
1 Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)
Important Safety Reminders
The LKAS is for your convenience only. It is not an 
autonomous driving system  and always requires 
driver attention and control. The system does not 
work if you take your hands  off the steering wheel or 
fail to steer the vehicle.
The LKAS is convenient when it is used on 
expressways or freeways.
Do not place objects on the instrument panel. 
Objects may reflect on th e windshield and prevent 
correct detection of the traffic lanes.
The LKAS only alerts you when lane drift is detected 
without a turn signal in use.  The LKAS may not detect 
all lane markings or lane  departures; accuracy will 
vary based on weather,  speed, and lane marker 
condition.
It is always your  responsibility to  safely operate the 
vehicle and avoid collisions.
The LKAS may not work  properly or may work 
improperly under the certain conditions:
