(i) Braking control
Dynamic laser cruise control is not a collision avoidance
system. If the approach warning is activated, depress the
brake pedal to decelerate to ensure an appropriate
vehicle−to−vehicle distance.
If you are getting closer to the vehicle ahead at a relatively
higher speed than that of the vehicle ahead or if engine braking
cannot be applied properly, braking control is automatically
activated. At this time, the display flashes.
Braking control is operating only when the vehicle−to−vehicle
distance control mode is selected and your vehicle speed
exceeds about 40 km/h (25 mph). If the speed decreases
below about 40 km/h (25 mph), braking control will cease,
requiring the manual application of brakes.
CAUTION
Braking control will not ensure that your vehicle will
reduce speed appropriately. You must depress the
brake pedal to slow down, ensuring collision avoidance
or that sufficient vehicle−to−vehicle distance is
maintained.
