Smart Brake Support
(SBS)
*
SBS is a system designed to avoid
collisions and reduce damage in the
event of a collision by controlling the
brakes. Sensors and camera equipped
on the vehicle detect objects, and
operate brake control if there is a
possibility of your vehicle colliding with
the object.
Forward drive detection
Forward detection function
The forward detection function is
designed to assist the driver in avoiding
collisions with objects (vehicles ahead,
pedestrians, bicycles, and motorcycles)
at the front and to reduce damage in
the event of a collision.
If there is a possibility of your vehicle
colliding with a target object at the
front, you are
notified
of possible
danger by a screen display and a
warning sound. Furthermore, if the
possibility of a collision increases,
brake control is performed to avoid
collision and reduce damage in the
event of a collision.
In addition, when the driver depresses
the brake pedal, the brakes are applied
firmly and quickly to assist.
Warnings and Cautions
for Using the Smart Brake
Support (SBS)
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the SBS.
The SBS is only designed to reduce
damage in the event of a collision.
Over reliance on the system leading to
the accelerator pedal or brake pedal
being mistakenly operated could result
in an accident.
Heed the following cautions so that
the SBS can operate normally.
Do not modify the suspensions.
Handle the Forward Sensing Camera
(FSC) appropriately. Otherwise, the
Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) may
not be able to detect target objects,
which could result in an accident.
Refer to Forward Sensing Camera
(FSC) on page 5-90.
Always check the surrounding area
visually.
The operation of the SBS has certain
limitations. Always
confirm
the safety
around the vehicle visually when
driving.
CAUTION
If any of the following conditions is
met, turn the SBS off to prevent a
mis-operation.
An accessory such as a bicycle
carrier is installed to the rear of the
vehicle.
The vehicle is driven on rough
roads such as in areas where there
is grass and foliage or
off-road.
