2-4. Using other driving systems
When the radar sensor detects an unavoidable frontal collision, safety sys-
tems such as the brakes and seat belts are automatically engaged in an
attempt to lessen vehicle damage.
■ Pre-collision seat belts (front seatbelt only)
The front seat belts are immediately retracted as the effect of the preten-
sioner is increased (P. 75) to help prepare the driver and front passen-
ger. In the event of sudden braking or skidding, the system will operate
even if no obstacle has been detected.
However, the system will not operate in the event of skidding when the
TRAC/VSC systems are disabled.
■ Pre-collision brake assist
When there is a high possibility of a frontal collision, the system applies
greater braking force in relation to how strongly the brake pedal is
depressed.
