Situations in which the pre-crash safety system does not function properly
■
The system may not function effectively in situations such as the following:
On roads with sharp bends or uneven surfaces
●
If a vehicle suddenly moves in front of your vehicle, such as at an intersection
●
If a vehicle suddenly cuts in front of your vehicle, such as when overtaking
●
In inclement weather such as heavy rain, fog, snow or sand storms
●
If the vehicle is skidding when VSC is not operating
●
When an extreme change in vehicle height occurs
●
When only part of your vehicle's front end collides with, or contacts, a vehicle or
●
object in a frontal collision
When the radar sensor moves off position due to its surrounding area being sub-
●
jected to a strong impact
If an obstacle in front of the vehicle is small
●
When the system judges that the driver performed a collision avoidance operation
●
via the accelerator pedal, brake pedal, or steering wheel
Automatic cancelation of the pre-crash safety system
■
When a malfunction occurs due to sensor contamination, etc. that results in the sen-
sors being unable to detect obstacles, the pre-crash safety system will be automati-
cally disabled. In this case, the system will not activate even if there is a collision
possibility.
When there is a malfunction in the system
■
The pre-crash safety system warning light will flash and warning messages will be
displayed. (P. 607, 614)
