turned on by pressing the ESC OFF
button, Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist will maintain the last setting.
[
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
does not operate in all situations and
cannot avoid all collisions.

[ The driver has the responsibility to
control the vehicle. Do not solely
depend on Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist. Rather, maintain
a safe braking distance, and, if
necessary, depress the brake pedal
to reduce driving speed or to stop
the vehicle.

[ Never deliberately operate Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist on people,
objects, etc. It may cause serious
injury or death.

[ Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not operate if the driver
depresses the brake pedal to avoid
collision.

[ Depending on the road and driving
conditions, Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist may warn the driver
late or may not warn the driver.

[ During Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist operation the vehicle may
stop suddenly injuring passengers
and shifting loose objects. Always
have the seat belt on and keep loose
objects secured.

[ If any other system’s warning
message is displayed or audible
warning is generated, Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist warning
message may not be displayed
and audible warning may not be
generated.

[ You may not hear the warning sound
of Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist if the surrounding is noisy.

[ Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist may turn off or may not
operate properly or may operate
unnecessarily depending on the road
conditions and the surroundings.

Avoidance Assist will automatically
cancel when the driver excessively
depresses the accelerator pedal or
sharply steers the vehicle.

vehicle and pedestrian in front and
the surroundings, the speed range to
operate Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist may reduce. Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist may only warn the
driver, or it may not operate.
Information
In a situation where collision is imminent,
braking may be assisted by Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist when braking
is insufficient by the driver.
