• To warn the driver that emergency
steering will be assisted, Emergency
Steering warning light ( ) blinking, the
‘Emergency Steering’ message will
appear on the instrument cluster, an
audible warning will sound and the
steering wheel will vibrate.
• If there is high risk of collision with a pedestrian and cyclist in front, and the
vehicle speed to operate emergency
braking is within the operation range,
the steering will be assisted to help
prevent collision when there is space to
avoid collision in the driving lane.
• The function will operate when your vehicle speed is between about 40-47
mph (65-75 km/h).
CAUTION • The steering wheel may turn automatically when emergency
steering is operating.
• Emergency steering will automatically cancel when risk factors disappear. The
driver must steer the vehicle.
• Emergency steering may not operate or may cancel during operation if the
steering wheel is held tight or steered in
the opposite direction.
• When steering is assisted to avoid collision with a vehicle, powered
two-wheeler, pedestrian and cyclist,
Evasive steering assist will be canceled

if collisions with other objects (vehicles,
powered two-wheeler, pedestrians, or
cyclists) are expected.
• Evasive steering assist may not operate if space to avoid collision in the driving
lane is insufficient.
Information For more information on warning messages,
refer to the Collision Warning in “Basic
Function”.
WARNING Take the following precautions when
using Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist:
• For your safety, only change the Settings after parking the vehicle at a
safe location.
• Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist does not operate in all situations or
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 a 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.
• Even if there is a problem with Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist, the
vehicle’s basic braking will function
normally.
• During emergency braking, braking control by Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist will automatically cancel when
the driver excessively depresses the
accelerator pedal or sharply steers the
vehicle.
CAUTION • Depending on the condition of the vehicle, two-wheeled vehicle,
pedestrian or cyclist in front and the
surroundings, the speed range for
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist to
operate may be reduced, and Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist may be
limited, or may not operate.
• Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist will operate under certain conditions by
judging the risk level based on the
condition of the oncoming vehicle,
driving direction, speed and
surroundings.

• Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist may be limited or disabled if the vehicle
speed is too high or the distance to the
vehicle ahead is far.
• When a collision with a surrounding vehicle is expected, Lane-Change
Oncoming, Lane-Change Side and
Evasive Steering Assist will not assist
you with steering but only warn the you
of a collision (if equipped).
Information • In a situation where collision is imminent, braking may be assisted by Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist when braking
is insufficient by the driver.
• The images and colors in the instrument cluster may differ depending on the
instrument cluster type or theme selected
from the settings menu.

may not detect other vehicles, powered
two-wheelers, pedestrians or cyclists in
front of you when driving on curved
roads adversely affecting the
performance of the sensors. This may
result in no warning, braking assist or

necessary.
When driving on a curve, you must
maintain a safe braking distance, and if
necessary, steer the vehicle and
depress the brake pedal to reduce your
driving speed in order to maintain a
safe distance.

front of you while driving uphill or
downhill, adversely affecting the
performance of the sensors.
This may result in unnecessary warning,
braking assist or steering assist (if
equipped) or no warning, braking assist or steering assist (if equipped) when
necessary.
Also, vehicle speed may rapidly
decrease when a vehicle, powered
two-wheeler, pedestrian or cyclist
ahead is suddenly detected.

safe distance.• Detecting vehicle
B7000414
If the vehicle in front of you has cargo
that extends rearward from the cab, or
when the vehicle in front of you has
higher ground clearance, additional
special attention is required. Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist may not be
able to detect the cargo extending from
the vehicle. In these instances, you
must maintain a safe braking distance
from the rearmost object, and if
necessary, steer your vehicle and
depress the brake pedal to reduce your
driving speed in order to maintain
distance.
WARNING • When you are towing a trailer or another vehicle, turn off Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist for safety
reasons.
• Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist may operate if objects that are similar
in shape or characteristics to vehicles,
powered two-wheelers, pedestrians
and cyclists are detected.
• Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist does not operate on bicycles, or smaller
wheeled objects, such as luggage bags,
shopping carts, or strollers.
• Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist may not operate properly if interfered
by strong electromagnetic waves.
