uuWhen Driving uReactive Force Pedal
Driving
Reactive Force Pedal
The system increases the accelerator pedal
resistance force when you depress the
accelerator pedal. This gives you the feeling
that the vehicle's accelera tion is in response to
your pedal operation.
At the same time, a slight increase in the accelerator pedal resistance force helps to
modify your driving style to be in an efficient manner especially when you apply
more force to the pedal than is necessary.
The Reactive Force Pedal is designed also to help prevent your wheels from possibly
spinning out due to excessive throttle, and help make the vehicle start smoothly
when roads are slippery due to ic e, snow, excessive rainfall, etc.1Reactive Force Pedal
The Reactive Force Pedal system in no way restricts or
limits your ability to operate the accelerator pedal to
accelerate the vehicle.
If the Collision Miti gation Braking System
TM (CMBSTM)
detects a possible collision, you may feel an opposing
force from the accelerator pedal. 2 Collision Mitigation Braking System
TM
(CMBSTM) P. 430
You can change the amount of the accelerator pedal
resistance force. 2 Customized Features P. 113, 286
