Driving
■Automatic shutoff
The CMBSTM may automatically shut itself o ff and the safety support indicator
(amber) comes and stays on when:
• You drive off-road or on a mountain road, or curved and wi nding road for an
extended period.
• Driving in bad weather (rain, fog, snow, etc.).
• Driving with the parking brake applied.
• The camera temperature gets too high.
• The front of the camera is covered by dirt, fog, rain, mud, wet snow, seals,
accessories, stickers, or film on the windshield.
• An abnormal tire condition is detected (incorrect tire size, flat tire, etc.).
Once the conditions that caused the CMBS
TM to shut off improve or are addressed
(e.g., cleaning), the system comes back on.

Driving
Low Speed Braking Control*
Using sonar sensors located on the front an d rear bumpers and the front grille, this
system can detect if there is danger of a potential collision with a wall or other
obstacle during normal driving or when the accelerator pedal is depressed with too
much force. The system then assists in avoiding collisions and reducing damage
from impact through assistive braking a nd/or assistive driving power suppression.
1Low Speed Braking Control*
If the Low Speed Braking Control activates in a
situation where you do not want automatic brake
application (such as when the vehicle is between two
railroad crossing gates), si mply press the brake pedal
to deactivate the system and then continue to drive
as intended.
3WARNING
The Low Speed Braking Control System
cannot avoid all collisions and may not
reduce damage in each situation where the
accelerator is mistaken ly or aggressively
pressed. Overreliance on the system may
result in a collision with serious injury or
death. Always check your surroundings,
your shift position, and your pedal use.
Driver remains responsible for safely
operating the vehicle.
