Features and controls
WARNING
 The FCM is designed to help avoid certain
frontal collisions or reduce the crash
speed in such collisions. It is not a substi-
tute for your safe and careful driving.
Under certain circumstances, the system
may not operate or may not detect cor-
rectly a vehicle or a pedestrian in front.
When your vehicle is approaching a vehi-
cle or a pedestrian too closely, take all nec-
essary actions to avoid a collision, such as
braking
and
steering,
regardless
whether the FCM is activated or not.
Never rely on the FCM to prevent a colli-
sion.
 Never attempt to test the operation of the
FCM. Doing so could cause an accident,
resulting in serious injury or death.
Forward collision warning
function
If the system judges that there is a risk of
your vehicle colliding with a vehicle or the
pedestrian in front, this function warns you of
the potential hazard with visual and audible
alarms.
When this function is triggered, a buzzer
sounds and, at the same time, a "BRAKE"
of
message appears on the information screen of
the multi-information display.
The FCM will also prepare to provide quick
brake response and greater brake force when
you apply the brakes.
The forward collision warning function oper-
ates when the following vehicle speed:
 Against a vehicle: Approximately 10 mph
(15 km/h) to 87 mph (140 km/h).
 Against a pedestrian: Approximately 5
mph (7 km/h) to 40 mph (65 km/h).
