Driving your vehicle
When a vehicle (B) moves into your
lane from an adjacent lane, it cannot
be detected by the sensor until it is in
the sensor's detection range. Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist may not
immediately detect the vehicle when
the vehicle changes lanes abruptly. In
this case, you must maintain a safe
braking distance, and if necessary,
steer your vehicle and depress the
brake pedal to reduce your driving
speed in order to maintain a safe dis-
tance.

[A]: Your vehicle, [B]: Lane changing
vehicle,
[C]: Same lane vehicle
When a vehicle (B) in front of you
merges out of the lane, Forward Colli-
sion-Avoidance Assist may not imme-
diately detect the vehicle (C) that is
now in front of you. In this case, you
must maintain a safe braking dis-
tance, and if necessary, steer your
vehicle and depress the brake pedal
to reduce your driving speed in order
to maintain a safe distance.

Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) (Sensor Fusion)
僅 Detecting a vehicle
If the vehicle in front of you has cargo
that extends rearward from the cab,
or when the vehicle in front of you has
higher ground clearance, additional
special attention is required. Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist may not be
able to detect the cargo extending
from the vehicle. In these instances,
you must maintain a safe braking dis-
tance from the rearmost object, and if
necessary, steer your vehicle and
depress the brake pedal to reduce
your driving speed in order to main-
tain distance.
WARNING
僅 When you are towing a trailer or
another vehicle, we recommend that
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist is
turned off due to safety reasons.
僅 Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may operate if objects that are similar
in shape or characteristics to vehicle,
pedestrian or cyclist are detected.
僅 Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
does not operate on bicycles, motor-
cycles, or smaller wheeled objects,
such as luggage bags, shopping carts,
or strollers.
