In certain situations, such as the following,
sufficient braking force may not be
obtained, and the system may not oper-
ate properly:
• When braking performance is insufficient
(the brake parts are extremely hot, cold,
wet, etc.)
• When the vehicle has not been properly
maintained (brake parts or tires are worn
out, tire pressure is low, etc.).
• When driving on a slick road surface
Operation of other systems

WARNING
For safe use
Driving safely is the sole responsibility
of the driver. Do not overly rely on this
system, and pay careful attention to the
surrounding conditions in order to
ensure safe driving.
• Never use the emergency support
brake in place of normal braking oper-
ations. The emergency support brake
cannot help avoid a collision or reduce
the impact of a collision in every situa-
tion. Over-reliance on this system to
drive the vehicle safely may lead to an
accident resulting in death or serious
injury.
• Although the emergency support
brake is designed to help avoid a colli-
sion or help reduce the impact of a col-
lision, its effectiveness may change
according to various conditions.
Therefore, it may not always be able to
achieve the same level of perfor-
mance.
Read the following items carefully. Do
not overly rely on the emergency sup-
port brake and always drive carefully.
Situations in which the emergency sup-
port brake may operate even though the
possibility of a collision is not high:
Situations in which the emergency sup-
port brake may not operate properly:

• Do not attempt to test the operation of
the emergency support brake.
Depending on the object used to test
the system (such as a cardboard prop
representing a detectable object, etc.)
or situation, the emergency support
brake may not operate properly, possi-
bly leading to an accident.
When the emergency support brake
operates, a large amount of braking
force will be generated.
