Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA)
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist may not detect other
vehicles, powered two-wheelers, pedestrians or cyclists
in front of you while driving uphill or downhill, adversely
affecting the performance of the sensors.
This may result in unnecessary warning, braking assist,
steering assist (if equipped) or no warning, braking
assist, steering assist (if equipped) when necessary.
Also, vehicle speed may rapidly decrease when a vehi-
cle, powered two-wheeler, pedestrian or cyclist ahead is
suddenly detected.
Always have your eyes on the road while driving uphill
or downhill and if necessary, steer your vehicle and
depress the brake pedal to reduce your driving speed in
order to maintain a safe distance.
1 Your vehicle
2 Lane changing vehicle
3 Same lane vehicle
When a vehicle (2) moves into your lane from an adja-
cent lane, it cannot be detected by the sensor until it is in
the sensor's detection range.
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist may not immedi-
ately 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 distance.
When a vehicle (2) in front of you merges out of the lane,
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist may not immedi-
ately detect the vehicle (3) that is now in front of you. 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 distance.
