■ The system automatically cancels when:
• You engage the parking brake.
• You depress the brake pedal and move the shift lever to
(P or (R.
Under the following conditions, the system automatically cancels, and the parking
brake is applied: • Braking is kept for more than 10 minutes.
• The driver’s seat belt is unfastened.
• The engine is turned off.
• There is a problem with au tomatic brake hold system.
• The battery is disconnected.
• The engine stalls.
■ Turning off the automatic brake hold system
While the system is on, press the automatic
brake hold button again.
uThe automatic brake hold system
indicator goes off.
If you want to turn off automatic brake hold
while the system is in operation, press the
automatic brake hold button with the brake
pedal depressed.
1Automatic Brake Hold
While the system is activated, you can turn off the
engine or park the ve hicle through the same
procedure as you normally do.
2 When Stopped P. 461
Whether the system is on, or the system is activated,
the automatic brake hold turn s off once the engine is
off.
The system turns off if the engine stalls while
automatic brake hold is active or the system is on.

uuBrakinguAnti-lock Brake System (ABS)
Driving
Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
Helps prevent the wheels from locking up, and helps you retain steering control by
pumping the brakes rapidly, much faster than you.
The electronic brake distribu tion (EBD) system, which is part of the ABS, also
balances the front-to-rear braking distribution according to vehicle loading.
You should never pump the brake pedal. Let the ABS work for you by always
keeping firm, steady pressure on the brake pe dal. This is sometimes referred to as
“stomp and steer.” ■ ABS operation
The brake pedal may pulsate slightly when the ABS is working. Keep holding the
pedal firmly down. On dry pavement, you will need to press on the brake pedal very
hard before the ABS activates. However, you may feel the ABS activate immediately
if you are trying to stop on snow or ice.
When the vehicle speed goes under 6 mph (10 km/h), the ABS stops.
■ABS1Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
NOTICE
The ABS may not function correctly if you use an
incorrect tire type and size.
When the ABS indicator comes on while driving,
there may be a problem with the system.
While normal braking is not affected, there is a
possibility of the ABS not operating. Have the vehicle
checked by a dealer immediately.
The ABS does not reduce the ti me or distance it takes
to stop the vehicle. It only helps with steering control
during hard braking.
In the following cases, yo ur vehicle may need more
stopping distance than a vehicle without the ABS:
• When driving on rough road surfaces, including
when driving on uneven surf aces, such as gravel or
snow.
• When snow chains are installed.
You may hear a motor sound coming from the
engine compartment while system checks are being
performed immediately after starting the engine or
while driving. This is normal.

uuBrakinguBrake Assist System
Driving
Brake Assist System
Designed to assist the driver by generating greater braking force when you depress
the brake pedal hard during emergency braking. ■Brake assist system operation
Press the brake pedal firmly for more powerful braking.
When brake assist operates, the pedal ma y wiggle slightly and an operating noise
may be heard. This is normal. Keep holding the brake pedal firmly down.

Continued
Driving
Collision Mitigation Braking System TM
(CMBS TM
)*
Can assist you when there is a possibility of your vehicle colliding with a vehicle or a
pedestrian detected in front of yours. The CMBS TM
is designed to alert you when a
potential collision is determined, as well as to reduce your vehicle speed to help
minimize collision severity when a collision is deemed unavoidable.
■ How the system works
1Collision Mitigation Braking System TM
(CMBS TM
)*
Important Safety Reminder
The CMBS TM
is designed to reduce the severity of an
unavoidable collision. It doe s not prevent collision nor
stop the vehicle automatically. It is still your
responsibility to operate the brake pedal and steering
wheel appropriately acco rding to the driving
conditions.
The CMBS TM
may not activate or may not detect a
vehicle in front of y our vehicle under certain
conditions:
2 CMBS TM
Conditions and Limitations P. 457
You can read about handling information for the
camera equipped with this system. 2 Front Sensor Camera *
P. 408
Be careful not to have the radar sensor cover strongly
impacted.
1How the system works
Rapid vibrations on the steering wheel alert you
when your vehicle speed is between 19 and 62 mph
(30 and 100 km/h) with an oncoming vehicle
detected in front of you.
When the CMBS TM
activates, it may automatically
apply the brake. It will be canceled when your vehicle
stops or a potential coll ision is not determined.
The radar sensor is in
the lower bumper next
to the fog light*
.
The camera is located
behind the rearview mirror.
The system starts monitoring the roadway ah ead when your vehicle speed is about
3 mph (5 km/h) and there is a vehicle in front of you.
When to use
The CMBS TM
activates when:
● The speed difference between your vehicle and a vehicle or pedestrian detected
in front of you becomes about 3 mph (5 km/h) and over with a chance of a
collision.
● Your vehicle speed is about 62 mph (100 km/h) or less and there is a chance of a
collision with an oncoming detected ve hicle or a pedestrian in front of you.

■ When the system activates
At system’s earliest collision alert stage, you can change the distance ( Long/
Normal /Short ) between vehicles at which alerts will come on through audio/
information screen setting options. 2 List of customizable options P. 307
■ Vibration alert on the steering wheel
When a potential collision to an oncoming detected vehicle is determined, the
system alerts you with rapid vibration on the steering wheel, in addition to visual and
audible alerts.
uTake appropriate action to prevent a co llision (apply the brakes, operate the
steering wheel, etc.).
1When the system activates
The camera in the CMBS TM
is also designed to detect
pedestrians.
However, this pedestrian detection feature may not
activate or may not detect a pedestrian in front of
your vehicle under certain conditions.Refer to the ones indicating the pedestrian detection
limitations from the list. 2 CMBS TM
Conditions and Limitations P. 457
The system provides visual, audible and tactile alerts of a possible collision, and
stops if the collision is avoided.
