Pre-Collision Throttle Management
Continued from previous page
• Do not intentionally depress the accelerator pedal excessively when there are
obstacles nearby. If the driver relies only on Pre-Collision Throttle Manage-
ment to control acceleration, collisions may occur.
• If your vehicle is trapped on a railroad crossing and you are trying to escape
by driving through the crossing gate, the stereo camera may recognize the
crossing gate as an obstacle and Pre-Collision Throttle Management system
may activate. In this case, remain calm and either continue to depress the
accelerator pedal or turn off the Pre-Collision Throttle Management system.

• Pre-Collision Throttle Management may not activate depending on the follow-
ing conditions:
- The distance between your vehicle and the obstacle, speed difference, and
horizontal offset
- Recognition status of the stereo camera
In particular, the function may not activate in the following cases:
• Bad weather (for example heavy rain, a blizzard or thick fog)
• Visibility is poor due to sand or smoke in the air.
• Light is poor in the evening, early morning, or at night.
• In a dark area (indoor parking area, etc.)
• There is an obstacle outside the area illuminated by the headlights.
• Strong light is coming from the front (for example sunlight at sunrise or
sunset headlight beams, etc.).
• The windshield has become fogged, scratched, or snow, dirt, dust or frost
has adhered to it, or it is otherwise affected.
• Fluid has not been fully wiped off the windshield during or after use of the
window washer.
• Obstacles cannot be correctly recognized due to water droplets from rain
or the washer, or the wiper blades obstructing the stereo camera's field of
view.
• The stereo camera's field of view is obstructed (for example by a canoe
on the roof of the vehicle).
• With low obstacles (low wall, crash barrier, low vehicle, etc.)
• The size and height of an obstacle is smaller than the limitations of the
stereo camera's recognition capability.
- With small animals or children
- With pedestrians who are sitting or lying down
