– When your vehicle or the vehicle orpedestrian ahead moves quickly or
significantly such that the system
cannot detect and react in time (for
example, pedestrian moving quickly
toward the vehicle at close range, ve-
hicle cutting in, changing lanes, mak-
ing a turn, steering abruptly, sudden
acceleration or deceleration).
– When the vehicle or pedestrian is off-
set from the vehicle’s forward path.
– If the speed difference between the two vehicles is small.
– The pedestrian’s profile is partially obscured or unidentifiable; for ex-
ample, due to transporting luggage,
pushing a stroller, wearing bulky or
very loose-fitting clothing or acces-
sories, or being in a unique posture
(such as raising hands).
– There is poor contrast of a person to the background, such as having
clothing color or pattern which is
similar to the background.
– For approximately 15 seconds after
starting the engine.
– If the vehicle ahead has a unique or unusual shape, extremely low or high
clearance heights, or unusual cargo
loading or is narrow (for example, a
motorcycle). – When the vehicle or pedestrian is lo-
cated near a traffic sign, a reflective
area (for example, water on road), or
is in a shadow.
– When multiple pedestrians are grouped together.
– When the view of the pedestrian is obscured by a vehicle or other object.
– While towing a trailer or other vehicle.
• The system performance may be de-
graded in the following conditions:
– The vehicle is driven on a slippery road.
– The vehicle is driven on a slope.
– Excessively heavy baggage is loaded in the rear seat or the cargo area of
your vehicle.
• The system is designed to automatically
check the sensor’s (radar and camera)
functionality, within certain limitations.
The system may not detect some forms
of obstruction of the sensor area such as
ice, snow or stickers, for example. In
these cases, the system may not be able
to warn the driver properly. Be sure that
you check, clean and clear sensor areas
regularly. •
In some road and traffic conditions, the
FEB with Pedestrian Detection system
may unexpectedly apply partial braking.
When acceleration is necessary, depress
the accelerator pedal to override the
system.
• The FEB with Pedestrian Detection sys-
tem may operate when a pattern, object,
shadow or lights are detected that are
similar to the outline of vehicles or pe-
destrians, or if they are the same size and
position as a vehicle or motorcycle’s tail
lights.
• The system may keep operating when
the vehicle ahead is turning right or left.
• The system may operate when your ve-
hicle is approaching and passing a vehicle
ahead.
• Depending on the road shape (curved
road, entrance and exit of the curve,
winding road, lane regulation, under
construction, etc.), the system may
operate temporarily for the oncoming
vehicle in front of your vehicle.
