• Do not intentionally depress the accelerator pedal excessively when there are
obstacles nearby. If the driver relies only on Pre-Collision Throttle Manage-
ment to control acceleration, collisions may occur.
• If your vehicle is trapped on a railroad crossing and you are trying to escape
by driving through the crossing gate, the stereo camera may recognize the
crossing gate as an obstacle and Pre-Collision Throttle Management system
may activate. In this case, remain calm and either continue to depress the
accelerator pedal or turn off the Pre-Collision Throttle Management system.

• Pre-Collision Throttle Management may not activate depending on the follow-
ing conditions:
- The distance between your vehicle and the obstacle, speed difference, and
horizontal offset
- Recognition status of the stereo camera
In particular, the function may not activate in the following cases:
• Bad weather (for example heavy rain, a blizzard or thick fog)
• Visibility is poor due to sand or smoke in the air.
• Light is poor in the evening, early morning, or at night.
• In a dark area (indoor parking area, etc.)
• There is an obstacle outside the area illuminated by the headlights.
• Strong light is coming from the front (for example sunlight at sunrise or
sunset headlight beams, etc.).
• The windshield has become fogged, scratched or smeared, or snow, dirt,
dust or frost has adhered to it, or it is otherwise affected. These will
reduce the stereo camera's field of view. Also, light is reflecting off the
dirt, etc.
• Fluid has not been fully wiped off the windshield during or after use of the
window washer.
• Obstacles cannot be correctly recognized due to water droplets from rain
or the washer, or the wiper blades obstructing the stereo camera's field of
view.
• The stereo camera's field of view is obstructed.
• With low obstacles (low wall, crash barrier, low vehicle, etc.)
• The size and height of an obstacle is smaller than the limitations of the
stereo camera's recognition capability.
- With small animals or children
- With pedestrians who are sitting or lying down
