Pedestrian detection function
■
The pre-collision system detects pedestrians
based on the size, profile, and motion of a
detected object. However, a pedestrian may not
be detected depending on the surrounding
brightness and the motion, posture, and angle of
the detected object, preventing the system from
operating properly. (P. 246)
Cancelation of the pre-collision braking
■
If either of the following occur while the pre-collision braking function is operating, it will
be canceled:
The accelerator pedal is depressed strongly.
●
The steering wheel is turned sharply or abruptly.
●
Conditions under which the system may operate even if there is no possibility of a colli-
■
sion
In some situations such as the following, the system may determine that there is a possi-
●
bility of a frontal collision and operate.
• When passing a vehicle or pedestrian
• When changing lanes while overtaking a preceding vehicle
• When overtaking a preceding vehicle that is changing lanes
• When overtaking a preceding vehicle that
is making a left/right turn
• When passing a vehicle in an oncoming
lane that is stopped to make a right/left turn
• When driving on a road where relative
location to vehicle ahead in an adjacent
lane may change, such as on a winding
road
• When rapidly closing on a vehicle ahead
