DRIVING
Collision Mitigation Braking System™ (CMBS™)
Can assist you when there is a possibility of your vehicle colliding with a vehicle or a
pedestrian detected in front of yours.
The system can alert you when a potential collision
is determined, and reduce your vehicle speed to
help minimize collision severity when a collision is
deemed unavoidable.
The system activates when:
• The speed difference between your vehicle and a vehicle or pedestrian detected in
front of you is about 3 mph (5 km/h) and over with a chance of a collision.
• Your vehicle speed is about 62 mph (100 km/h) or less and there is a chance of a
collision with an oncoming detected vehicle or a pedestrian in front of you.
Alert Stages
The system has three alert stages for a possible collision. Depending on the
circumstances or CMBS settings, CMBS may not go through all of the stages
before initiating the last stage.
Stage 1: Head-up warning, beep, and steering-wheel vibration
Stage 2: Head-up warning, beep, light seat belt retraction, and light brake
application
Stage 3: Head-up warning, beep, and strong brake application

prevent collisions nor stop the vehicle automatically. It is still your responsibility to
operate the brake pedal and steering wheel appropriately according to the driving
conditions.
