FCM braking function
When the FCM judges that a collision with
the vehicle or the pedestrian straight-ahead is
imminent, the FCM will automatically apply
moderate braking to warn the driver to apply
the brakes immediately.
If the FCM judges that the collision is highly
unavoidable, it will automatically apply
emergency braking to reduce the severity of
the collision and, if possible, to avoid the col-
lision.
When the FCM applies emergency braking, a
buzzer sounds and a warning message is dis-
played in the information screen of the multi-
information display.
The FCM braking function operates when the
following vehicle speed:
 Against a vehicle: Approximately 3 mph
(5 km/h) to 50 mph (80 km/h)
 Against a pedestrian: Approximately 3
mph (5 km/h) to 40 mph (65 km/h)
WARNING
 If the ASC is turned off, the FCM braking
N00577700073
function will not operate. Refer to "Active
stability control" on page 5-99.
 If the brake pedal is not depressed within
2 seconds after your vehicle has been
stopped by the FCM, a warning buzzer
will sound and the brakes activated by the
FCM will automatically be released.
Apply the brakes as necessary to keep
your vehicle stationary.
 The FCM will not activate and will not
provide either warning or braking in cer-
tain situations. Some of these include:
• When the selector lever is in the "P"
(PARK) or "R" (REVERSE) position.
• When an object other than a vehicle or a
pedestrian is in front.
• When the FCM has detected a problem
in the system.
• When a vehicle or a pedestrian suddenly
cuts in front of your vehicle.
 The FCM may or may not detect a motor-
cycle, bicycle or wall depending on the sit-
uation. The FCM is not designed to detect
these objects.
 The forward collision warning function
and/or the FCM braking function may not
activate in certain situations. Some of
these include:
• When a vehicle suddenly appears just in
front of your vehicle.
• When a vehicle cuts into your path at a
close distance.
