![](images/forward_collision_avoidance_assist_operation-1650/1346/pages.1(7).png)
If Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
judges that a collision may occur, the
message may appear on the instrument
cluster and an audible warning is heard
when:
- A vehicle is detected, and your vehicle
speed is about 6-112 mph (10-180
km/h).
- A pedestrian or cyclist is detected,
and your vehicle speed is about 6-49
mph (10-80 km/h).
Emergency Braking
![](images/forward_collision_avoidance_assist_operation-1650/1346/pages.2(7).png)
If Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
judges avoiding a collision may be
difficult, it applies higher brake force
that may help avoid a collision with the
vehicle, pedestrian, or cyclist detected
ahead.
The warning message may appear on
the instrument cluster and an audible
warning is heard when:
- A vehicle is detected, and your vehicle
speed is about 6-37 mph (10-60
km/h).
- A pedestrian or cyclist is detected,
and your vehicle speed is about 6-37
mph (10-60 km/h).
Stopping vehicle and ending brake control
![](images/forward_collision_avoidance_assist_operation-1650/1346/pages.3(7).png)
After your vehicle has stopped following
an Emergency Braking event, the "Drive
carefully" warning message may appear
on the instrument cluster.
Depress the brake pedal immediately
and check the surroundings.
- Braking control ends about 2 seconds
after your vehicle is stopped following
an Emergency Braking event.
WARNING
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist may not
operate in all situations and cannot avoid all
collisions.
To prevent serious injury or death:
- Only change the settings after parking
your vehicle at a safe location.
- Control your vehicle at all times. Do
not depend on Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist to avoid a collision.
Always maintain a safe distance from
the vehicles ahead and reduce your
vehicle speed as needed.
- Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may stop operating, or may not
operate, or operate unnecessarily
depending on the road conditions and
surroundings.
- When Active Assist or Warning Only
is selected and ESC is turned off by
pressing and holding the ESC OFF
button, Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist turns off automatically. Then
the Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist settings cannot be changed
using the settings menu and the
warning light illuminates on the
instrument cluster. If ESC is turned on
again by pressing the ESC OFF button,
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
maintains its last setting.
- Never attempt to activate Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist by
intentionally driving toward people,
animals, objects, or other vehicles.
- Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not assist braking your
vehicle if you depress the brake
pedal sufficiently in response to the
potential hazard detected by the
function to avoid all collisions.
- During Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist operation, your vehicle may
stop suddenly. Always wear your
seatbelt, check your passengers have
their seat belts fastened and secure
loose objects that may become
projectiles.
- When other system’s warning
message appears or audible warning
is heard, Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not warn you.
- You may not hear the audible warning
of Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
if the surrounding environment is too
noisy.
WARNING
- Even if there is an issue with Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist, the
vehicle’s braking system operates
normally.
- During emergency braking, braking
by the Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist automatically cancels if you
depress the accelerator pedal or
sharply steer your vehicle.
- Depending on the characteristics
of the vehicle, pedestrian or cyclist
detected, and the surroundings, the
speed or detection ranges for Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist may
be reduced. The function may not
operate or be limited.
- Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
operates only under certain conditions
that determines the risk level:
- Condition of other vehicles
- The direction vehicles are driven
- Vehicle speed
- Surroundings
- If your vehicle speed is too high or
the speed difference from the other
vehicle is too large, the function may
be limited or not operate.
Information
- When a collision is imminent, braking
may be assisted if you depress the
brake pedal insufficiently.
- The images and colors in the
instrument cluster may differ
depending on the cluster type or
theme selected from the settings
menu.
