•The camera may not detect lane markers
in the following situations and the BSI
system may not operate properly.
– On roads where there are multiple
parallel lane markers; lane markers
that are faded or not painted clearly;
yellow painted lane markers; non-
standard lane markers; lane markers
covered with water, dirt, snow, etc.
– On roads where discontinued lane
markers are still detectable.
– On roads where there are sharp
curves.
– On roads where there are sharply
contrasting objects, such as shad-
ows, snow, water, wheel ruts, seams
or lines remaining after road repairs.
– On roads where the traveling lane
merges or separates.
– When the vehicle’s traveling direction
does not align with the lane markers.
– When traveling close to the vehicle in
front of you, which obstructs the lane
camera unit detection range.
– When rain, snow or dirt adheres to
the windshield in front of a lane cam-
era unit. –
When the headlights are not bright
due to dirt on the lens or if aiming is
not adjusted properly.
– When strong light enters a lane cam-
era unit. (For example: light directly
shines on the front of the vehicle at
sunrise or sunset.)
– When a sudden change in brightness
occurs. (For example: when the ve-
hicle enters or exits a tunnel or under
a bridge.)
• Do not use the BSI system under the fol-
lowing conditions because the system
may not function properly.
– During bad weather (for example:
rain, fog, snow, etc.).
– When driving on slippery roads, such
as on ice or snow, etc.
– When driving on winding or uneven
roads.
– When there is a lane closure due to
road repairs.
– When driving in a makeshift or tem-
porary lane.
– When driving on roads where the lane
width is too narrow. –
When driving with a tire that is not
within normal tire conditions (e.g.,
tire wear, low tire pressure, installa-
tion of spare tire, tire chains, non-
standard wheels).
– When the vehicle is equipped with
non-original brake parts or suspen-
sion parts.
– When towing a trailer or other
vehicle.

Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-
tions for proper use of the RCTA system
could result in serious injury or death.
• The RCTA system is not a replacement
for proper driving procedures and is not
designed to prevent contact with ve-
hicles or objects. When backing out of a
parking space, always use the side and
rear mirrors and turn and look in the di-
rection your vehicle will move. Never rely
solely on the RCTA system.
• Do not use the RCTA system when tow-
ing a trailer. The system may not func-
tion properly. The RCTA system will assist you when back-
ing out from a parking space. When the ve-
hicle is in reverse, the system is designed to
detect other vehicles approaching from the
right or left of the vehicle. If the system de-
tects cross traffic, it will alert you.
REAR CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT
(RCTA)
5-72Starting and driving

•Always check surroundings before re-
starting the vehicle.
• Always pay attention to the operation of
the vehicle and be ready to manually
control the proper following distance.
The ICC system may not be able to main-
tain the selected distance between ve-
hicles (following distance) or selected
vehicle speed under some circumstances.
• The system may not detect the vehicle in
front of you in certain road or weather
conditions. To avoid accidents, never use
the ICC system under the following con-
ditions:
– On roads with heavy, high-speed
traffic or sharp curves
– On slippery road surfaces such as on
ice or snow, etc.
– During bad weather (rain, fog, snow,
etc.)
– When rain, snow or dirt adhere to the
bumper around the distance sensor
– On steep downhill roads (the vehicle
may go beyond the set vehicle speed
and frequent braking may result in
overheating the brakes)
– On repeated uphill and downhill roads –
When traffic conditions make it diffi-
cult to keep a proper distance be-
tween vehicles because of frequent
acceleration or deceleration
– Interference by other radar sources.
• Do not use the ICC system if you are
towing a trailer. The system may not de-
tect a vehicle ahead.
• In some road or traffic conditions, a ve-
hicle or object can unexpectedly come
into the sensor detection zone and cause
automatic braking. Always stay alert
and avoid using the ICC system where
not recommended in this warning
section.
The ICC system will not detect the following
objects:
• Stationary or slow moving vehicles
• Pedestrians or objects in the roadway
• Oncoming vehicles in the same lane
• Motorcycles traveling offset in the travel lane
The following are some conditions in which
the radar sensor cannot properly detect a
vehicle ahead and the system may not oper-
ate properly: • When the sensor detection is reduced (con-
ditions such as rain, snow, fog, dust storms,
sandstorms, and road spray from other
vehicles)
• Driving on a steep downhill slope or roads with sharp curves
• Driving on a bumpy road surface, such as an uneven dirt road
• If dirt, ice, snow or other material is cover- ing the radar sensor area
• A complicated-shaped vehicle such as a car carrier trailer or flatbed truck/trailer is near
the vehicle ahead.
• Interference by other radar sources
• When your vehicle is towing a trailer, etc.
• When excessively heavy baggage is loaded in the rear seat or cargo area of your
vehicle.
The ICC system is designed to automatically
check the radar sensor’s operation within the
limitations of the system.
The detection zone of the radar sensor is
limited. A vehicle ahead must be in the detec-
tion zone for the ICC system to maintain the
selected distance from the vehicle ahead. A
vehicle ahead may move outside of the de-
tection zone due to its position within the
same lane of travel. Motorcycles may not be
detected in the same lane ahead if they are

the Steering Assist is placed in a temporary
standby mode. (The Steering Assist restarts
automatically when the operating conditions
are met again.) • When lane markers on both sides are no
longer detected
• When a vehicle ahead is no longer detected under approximately 37 mph (60 km/h)
Steering Assist cancel
Under the following conditions, the Steering
Assist cancels, a warning message is dis-
played and the Steering Assist status indica-
tor and the Steering Assist indicator turn off:
• When unusual lane markers appear in thetraveling lane or when the lane marker can-
not be correctly detected for some time due
to certain conditions (for example, a snow
rut, the reflection of light on a rainy day, the
presence of several unclear lane markers)
• When the windshield wiper operates in the high (HI) speed operation (the Steering As-
sist is disabled when the wiper operates for
more than approximately 10 seconds)

–When your vehicle or the vehicle or
pedestrian 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 degraded
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 op-
erate temporarily for the oncoming ve-
hicle in front of your vehicle.
