Dual Sensor Brake Support II
(DSBS II)
The Dual Sensor Brake Support II (DSBS
II) uses sensors to detect objects in the
path of the vehicle. When the system
determines that the possibility of a frontal
collision with a detectable object is high, a
warning operates to urge the driver to take
evasive action. If the system determines
that the possibility of a collision is
extremely high, the brakes are automati-
cally applied to help avoid the collision or
help reduce the impact of the collision.
The Dual Sensor Brake Support II (DSBS
II) can be disabled/enabled and the warn-
ing timing can be changed. Refer to “Dual
Sensor Brake Support II (DSBS II) OFF
switch” (P.5-79).
Detectable objects
The system can detect the following as
detectable objects. (Detectable objects dif-
fer depending on the function.)
• Vehicles
• Bicycles*1
• Pedestrians
• Motorcycles*1
*1: Detected as a detectable object only
when being ridden.
WARNING
For safe use
• Driving safely is solely the respon-
sibility of the driver. Pay careful
attention to the surrounding condi-
tions in order to ensure safe driv-
ing. Never use the Dual Sensor
Brake Support II (DSBS II) in place
of normal braking operations. This
system cannot help avoid or
reduce the impact of a collision in
every situation. Over-reliance on
this system to drive the vehicle
safely may lead to an accident
resulting in death or serious injury.
• Although the Dual Sensor Brake
Support II (DSBS II) is designed to
help avoid or help reduce the
impact of a collision, its effective-
ness may change according to var-
ious conditions. Therefore, it may
not always be able to achieve the
same level of performance. Read
the following items carefully. Do
not overly rely on this system and
always drive carefully.
– Refer to “For safe use” (P.5-59) in
this section.
