CONTROLS AND INSTRUMENTS
CAUTION
• If a warning is issued when you try to overtake the vehicle in front of you, you
must not get any closer to that vehicle; otherwise, the emergency brakes may
be applied.
• If installed accessories or loaded cargo protrudes beyond the edge of the front
bumper, the front end of the vehicle is effectively longer, so avoiding collisions
may be impossible.
• The brake pedal may feel stiff when you depress it while the automatic brake is
being applied, but this is not abnormal. Further depressing the brake pedal can
increase the brake force. Depress the brake pedal further, as necessary.
NOTE
• You may hear a noise when the automatic brake is applied. This is caused by
controlling and does not indicate a malfunction.
Operation of the AEB
When the stereo camera detects an obstacle in the forward direction while the vehicle
is moving, it alerts the driver and applies the brake automatically. The system operates
in 3 stages. When the automatic brake is activated, the stop lights come on.
The system operates when all the following
conditions are met.
• When the power mode is "ON"
(models with passive entry and start
system) or the starter switch is in the
"ON" position (models without passive
entry and start system).
• The vehicle is traveling in the forward
direction at a speed of approximately
10 km/h (6 MPH) or more.
• The AEB OFF indicator light is not
come on.
