Front impact sensors
Airbag sensor assembly
Your vehicle is equipped with ADVANCED AIRBAGS designed 
based on the US motor vehicle safety standards (FMVSS208). The 
airbag sensor assembly (ECU) cont rols airbag deployment based on 
information obtained from the sensors etc. shown in the system 
components diagram above. This in formation includes crash sever-
ity and occupant information. As the airbags deploy, a chemical  
reaction in the inflators quickly  fills the airbags with non-toxic gas to 
help restrain the motion of the occupants.
■If the SRS airbags deploy 
(inflate)
●Slight abrasions,  burns, bruising 
etc., may be sustained from SRS 
airbags, due to the extremely high 
speed deployment (inflation) by 
hot gases.
●A loud noise and white powder will 
be emitted.
●Parts of the airbag module (steer-
ing wheel hub, airbag cover and 
inflator) as well as the front seats, 
parts of the front  and rear pillars, 
and roof side rails, may be hot for 
several minutes. T he airbag itself 
may also be hot.
●The windshield may crack.
●The brakes and st op lights will be 
controlled automatically. ( P.226)
●The interior lights will turn on auto-
matically. ( P.243)
●The emergency flashers will turn 
on automatically. ( P.312)
●Fuel supply to the engine will be 
stopped. (P.319)
●For Safety Connect subscribers, if 
any of the followin g situations 
occur, the system is designed to 
send an emergency call to the 
response center, notifying them of 
the vehicle’s location (without 
needing to push the “SOS” button) 
and an agent will attempt to speak 
with the occupants to ascertain  the level of emergency and assis-
tance required. If the occupants 
are unable to communicate, the 
agent automatically treats the call 
as an emergency and helps to dis-
patch the necessary emergency 
services. (
P. 6 0 )
• An SRS airbag is deployed.
• A seat belt pretensioner is acti- vated.
• The vehicle is involved in a severe  rear-end collision.
■SRS airbag deployment condi-
tions (SRS front airbags)
●The SRS front airbags will deploy 
in the event of an impact that 
exceeds the set  threshold level 
(the level of forc e corresponding 
to an approximately 12 - 18 mph 
[20 - 30 km/h] frontal collision with 
a fixed wall that does not move or 
deform).
However, this threshold velocity will 
be considerably higher in the follow-
ing situations:
• If the vehicle strikes an object,  such as a parked vehicle or sign 
pole, which can move or deform 
on impact
• If the vehicle is involved in an  underride collision, such as a colli-
sion in which the front of the vehi-
cle “underrides”, or goes under, 
the bed of a truck
●Depending on the type of collision, 
it is possible that only the seat belt 
pretensioners will activate.

●To make your vehicle more visible 
to other drivers  during daytime 
driving, the daytime running lights 
turn on automatically when all of 
the following conditions are met. 
(The daytime running lights are 
not designed for use at night.)
• The engine is running

PCS (Pre-Collision Sys-
tem)
The pre-collision system 
uses sensors to detect 
objects ( P.167) in the path 
of the vehicle. When the 
system determines that the 
possibility of a frontal colli-
sion with a detectable 
object is high, a warning 
operates to urge the driver 
to take evasive action and 
the potential brake pressure 
is increased to help the 
driver avoid the collision. If 
the system determines that 
the possibility of a collision 
is extremely high, the 
brakes are automatically 
applied to help avoid the 
collision or help reduce the 
impact of the collision.
The pre-collision system 
can be disabled/enabled 
and the warning timing can 
be changed. ( P.176)
WARNING
■For safe use
●Driving safely is solely the 
responsibility of the driver. Pay 
careful attention to the sur-
rounding conditions in order to 
ensure safe driving.
Never use the pre-collision sys-
tem in place of  normal braking 
operations. This system cannot 
help avoid or reduce the impact 
of a collision in every situation. 
Over-reliance on this system to 
drive the vehicle safely may 
lead to an accident resulting in 
death or serious injury.
●Although the pre-collision sys-
tem is designed to help avoid or 
help reduce the impact of a col-
lision, its effectiveness may 
change according to various 
conditions. Therefore, it may not 
always be able to achieve the 
same level of performance.
Read the followin g items care-
fully. Do not overl y rely on this 
system and always drive care-
fully.

PDA (Proactive driv-
ing assist)
When a detectable object 
(P.188) is detected, the 
proactive driving assist 
operates the brakes and 
steering wheel to help pre-
vent the vehicle from 
approaching too close to 
the object.
WARNING
■For safe use
Driving safely is  solely the respon-
sibility of the driver.
●The proactive driving assist is 
designed to provide some 
assistance for regular braking 
and steering operations, as well 
as helping to prevent the vehicle 
from approaching too close to a 
detectable object. However, the 
scope of this assistance is lim-
ited.
The driver should perform brake 
and steering operations as neces-
sary. Read the following items 
carefully. Do not overly rely on the 
proactive driving assist and 
always drive carefully.( P.189)
●The proactive driving assist is 
not a system which reduces the 
amount of attention necessary 
for safe driving. Even if the sys-
tem is operating correctly, the 
surrounding conditions as rec-
ognized by the driver and 
detected by the system may dif-
fer. It is necessary for the driver 
to pay attention, assess risks, 
and ensure safety. Over-reli-
ance on this system to drive the 
vehicle safely may lead to an 
accident resulting in death or 
serious injury.
●Proactive driving assist is not a 
system which allows for inatten-
tive driving and is not a system 
which assists in poor visibility 
conditions. The driver is solely 
responsible for paying attention 
to their surroundings and driving 
safely.

restriction control of a driving sup-
port system operates
(For example: Pre-Collision Sys-
tem, drive-start control)
●When the parking brake has been 
operated
●When the vehicle is stopped by 
system control on a steep incline
●When any of the following are 
detected while the vehicle is 
stopped by system control:
• The driver’s seat belt is unfas- tened
• The driver’s door is opened
• Approximately 3 minutes have  elapsed since the vehicle was 
stopped

WARNING
■For safe use
●Driving safely is solely the 
responsibility of the driver. Pay 
careful attent ion to the sur-
rounding conditions in order to 
ensure safe driving.
●Do not rely so lely upon the 
RSA. The RSA assists the 
driver by providing road sign 
information, but it is not a 
replacement for the driver’s own 
vision and awareness. Driving 
safely is solely the responsibility 
of the driver. Pay careful atten-
tion to the surrounding condi-
tions in order to ensure safe 
driving.
