■ Acceleration Suppression at Low Speed
When driving at a low speed, if the accelerator
pedal is strongly depressed and the system de-
termines that there is a possibility of a collision,
hybrid system output will be restrained or the
brakes will be applied weakly to restrict accelera-
tion. During operation, a buzzer will sound and a
warning indicator and message will be displayed
on the multi-information display.
■ Suspension control
When the system determines that the possibility of a collision is high, the Adaptive
Variable Suspension system (→ P.387) controls the damping force of the shock
absorbers to help maintain an appropriate vehicle posture.
WARNING
■ Pre-collision braking
● When the pre-collision braking function is operating, a large amount of braking force
will be applied.
● If the vehicle is stopped by pre-collision braking function, the driver should operate the
brakes as necessary.
● In the following situations, brake hold will not operate after the pre-collision braking
function has operated. Depending on the situation, the driver should operate the brake
pedal immediately.
• When the accelerator pedal is depressed
•
When the vehicle is stopped by intersection collision avoidance support
•
When the vehicle is stopped on a steep slope
● The pre-collision braking function may not operate if certain operations are per-
formed by the driver. If the accelerator pedal is being depressed strongly or the
steering wheel is being turned, the system may determine that the driver is taking
evasive action and possibly prevent the pre-collision braking function from operating.
● If the brake pedal is being depressed, the system may determine that the driver is
taking evasive action and possibly delay the operation timing of the pre-collision brake
control.
