SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The radar sensoris located on the front
of the vehicle. The camerais located on
the upper side of the windshield.
To keep the AEB with pedestrian detec-
tion system operating properly, be sure to
observe the following:
. Always keep the sensor area on the
front of the vehicle and windshield
clean.
. Do not strike or damage the areas
around the sensors (ex. bumper, wind-
shield).
. Do not cover or attach stickers or
similar objects on the front of the
vehicle near the sensor area. This could cause failure or malfunction.
. Do not attach metallic objects near
the radar sensor area (brush guard,
etc.). This could cause failure or mal-
function.
. Do not place reflective materials, such
as white paper or a mirror, on the
instrument panel. The reflection of
sunlight may adversely affect the
camera unit’s detection capability.
. Do not alter, remove or paint the front
of the vehicle near the sensor area.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the I-
FCW system could result in serious
injury or death.
.The I-FCW system helps warn the
driver before a collision but will
not avoid a collision. It is the
driver’s responsibility to stay
alert, drive safely and be in con-
trol of the vehicle at all times.
The I-FCW system can help alert the driver
when there is a sudden braking of a
second vehicle traveling in front of the
vehicle ahead in the same lane.
WAF0724X
The I-FCW system uses a radar sensorlocated on the front of the vehicle to
measure the distance to a second vehicle
ahead in the same lane.

I-FCW SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for the I-FCW system. Failure to
operate the vehicle in accordance
with these system limitations could
result in serious injury or death.
.The I-FCW system cannot detect
all vehicles under all conditions.
. The radar sensor does not detect
the following objects: — Pedestrians, animals or obsta-
cles in the roadway
— Oncoming vehicles
— Crossing vehicles
. (Illustration A) The I-FCW system
does not function when a vehicle
ahead is a narrow vehicle, such as
a motorcycle.
. The radar sensor may not detect
a vehicle ahead in the following
conditions:
— Snow or heavy rain — Dirt, ice, snow or other materi-
al covering the radar sensor
— Interference by other radar sources
— Snow or road spray from tra- velling vehicles.
— Driving in a tunnel
— Towing a trailer
. (Illustration B) When the vehicle
ahead is being towed.
. (Illustration C) When the distance
to the vehicle ahead is too close,
the beam of the radar sensor is
obstructed.
. (Illustration D) When driving on a
steep downhill slope or roads
with sharp curves.
. The system is designed to auto-
matically check the sensor’s func-
tionality, within certain
limitations. The system may not
detect some forms of obstruction
of the sensor area such as ice,
snow, stickers, for example. In
these cases, the system may not
be able to warn the driver prop-
erly. Be sure that you check, clean
and clear the sensor area regu-
larly.

.Excessive noise will interfere with
the warning chime sound, and
the chime may not be heard.
SSD0253
When driving on some roads, such as
winding, hilly, curved, narrow roads, or
roads which are under construction, the
radar sensor may detect vehicles in a
different lane, or may temporarily not
detect a vehicle traveling ahead. This
may cause the I-FCW system to work
inappropriately.
The detection of vehicles may also be
affected by vehicle operation (steering
maneuver or traveling position in the
lane, etc.) or vehicle condition. If this
occurs, the system may warn you by
blinking the vehicle ahead detection
indicator and sounding the chime un-
expectedly. You will have to manually
control the proper distance away from the vehicle traveling ahead.
