Driving your vehicle
Seat belt operating
The seat belt tightens when the vehi-
cle senses a collision.
WARNING
The AVSM is activated depend-
ing on the vehicle-to-vehicle
distance, relative velocity and
driver's brake pedal/accelerator
operation. Do not recklessly
drive on purpose to activate the
AVSM.
NOTICE
• When the AVSM is activated or
deactivated, make sure that the
vehicle is stopped.
• When the engine runs, the AVSM
is automatically turned ON. If
unnecessary, select the AVSM
OFF in the User Settings mode.
• Even when the AVSM ON is
selected in the User Settings
mode, but when the ESC is
turned OFF by pressing the ESC
OFF button, the AVSM is auto-
matically deactivated. Then, it is

Malfunction indicator
• The AVSM OFF indicator illumi-
nates, when the Engine Start/Stop
button is pressed ON. However, it
goes OFF in approximately 3 sec-
onds. When the indicator does not
illuminate, or continuously remains
ON even after 3 seconds, with the
Engine Start/Stop button ON, or
when the indicator remains ON
while driving, the AVSM does not
properly operate. Take your vehicle
to an authorized EQUUS dealer
and have the system checked.
• The AVSM OFF indicator may illu-
minate, when the ESC indicator or
SCC indicator illuminates. It does
not indicate a malfunction of the
AVSM.
WARNING
The AVSM is not a substitute for
your safe driving practices, but
only a supplementary system. It
is the driver's responsibility to
always check the speed and the
vehicle-to-vehicle distance.
