: If equipped
When a collision may occur with an
obstacle while parking or traveling
at low speeds, when the vehicle
suddenly moves forward due to
mistaken accelerator pedal opera-
tion, or when the vehicle moves due
to the shift lever being in the wrong
position, the sensors detect obsta-
cles to the front or rear in the travel-
ing direction of the vehicle, and the
system operates to lessen impact
with obstacles such as walls, and
reduce resulting damage.
Examples of system operation
The system operates in the following
situations when an obstacle is detected
in the traveling direction of the vehicle.
The vehicle is driven at low speeds
