sponges, etc.
• Thin obstacles such as fences, bicycles, sign posts, etc.
• Short or small obstacles.

■Conditions for Cancellation
■Low Speed Braking Control System Conditions and

1 Conditions for Cancellation
After Low Speed Braking Control has activated once,
it will not activate again for the same obstacle.
They can be activated again after driving for a certain

activates when moving forwar d, it can be activated
again immediately if reversing.)
However, if assistive braking has been activated, in
order to activate assistiv e driving power suppression
again, it is necessary to drive for a certain distance to
