Warning
There may be instances
where unexpected or
undesired automatic braking
occurs. If this happens,
either press the brake pedal
or firmly press the
accelerator pedal to release
the brakes from the RAB
system. Before releasing the
brakes, check the RVC and
check the area around the
vehicle to make sure it is
safe to proceed.
Unexpected braking events
are possible with a static
installed accessory, such as a
bike rack or hitch-mounted
cargo carrier.

If equipped, and under certain
conditions, this feature can

within the system s range
directly behind the vehicle.
This feature only works in

(8 mph), and detects
pedestrians up to 8 m (26 ft)
away during daytime driving.
During nighttime driving,
feature performance is very
limited.
