WARNING
● In some situations, while the pre-
collision braking function is operat-
ing, operation of the function may
be canceled if the accelerator pedal
is depressed strongly or the steer-
ing wheel is turned and the system
determines that the driver is taking
evasive action.

depressed, the system may deter-
mine that the driver is taking eva-
sive action and possibly delay the
operation timing of the pre-collision
braking function.
