■ FCTA system operating conditions
The system will operate when all of the fol-
lowing conditions are met:
● A shift position other than P or R is
selected
● The vehicle speed is approximately 10
mph (15 km/h) or less
● A vehicle is approaching from the left or
right in front of your vehicle at a speed
between approximately 7 to 37 mph (10
to 60 km/h)
● There are no vehicles in front of your
vehicle
● The accelerator pedal is not being
strongly depressed
● The brake pedal is not being strongly
depressed
■ Situations in which the system may
operate even though no vehicles are
approaching
In certain situations, such as the following,
the system may operate even though no
vehicles are approaching:
● When approaching objects on the road-
side, such as guardrails, traffic signs, util-
ity poles, street lights, trees, tall grass,
walls, etc.
● When passing an object on the side of
the road, such as a parked vehicle
● When a vehicle or pedestrian is
approaching from the left or right in front
of your vehicle in the distance
● When a vehicle or pedestrian is moving
within a parking spot, etc., next to the lane
your vehicle is in
● When a pedestrian or bicyclist is
approaching on a sidewalk
● When a vehicle or pedestrian is moving
away from your vehicle
● When an approaching vehicle is deceler-
ating or stops
● When an approaching vehicle makes a
left/right turn immediately in front of your
vehicle
● When a pedestrian is approaching your
vehicle
● When an oncoming vehicle makes a
right/left turn
● When your vehicle enters an intersection
before a vehicle approaching from the
left or right in front of your vehicle
● When stopped at traffic light and a vehi-
cle approaches from the left or right in
front of your vehicle
● When making a left/right turn in front of
an approaching vehicle
■ For safe use
Driving safely is solely the responsibility
of the driver. Pay careful attention to the
surrounding conditions in order to
ensure safe driving. The FCTA system is
a supplementary system that informs the
driver of vehicles approaching from the
left and right of the front of the vehicle.
Over-reliance on this system may lead to
an accident resulting in death or serious
injury. The details of the warning display
may differ from the actual traffic condi-
tions. Although the warning display will
stop being displayed after a certain
amount of time, this does not necessarily
indicate that there are no longer any
vehicles or pedestrians around your
vehicle.
