Radar brake support system
(if equipped)
Radar brake support system measures the
relative velocity of, and distance from, the
vehicle in front of you by radar and then
attempts to avoid a crash by giving warn-
ing and, in the event of a crash, attempts to
reduce damage through brake control.
WA R N I N G
• Radar brake support system has
limits and may not function prop-
erly depending on the driving con-
ditions. Do not rely excessively on
the system and always drive in a
safe manner.
• For safety reasons, do not check
the operation of the system by
yourself.
• Check that all passengers fasten
their seat belts when the vehicle is
being operated.
When the system is activated, there
is a risk of serious injury from
being thrown.

NOTE:
• Thin poles or obstacles lower than the
sensors may become undetectable as
the vehicle moves closer to them even if
they have been detected from longer
distances.
• The system may calculate the distance
to a road sign or similar obstacle to be
shorter than the actual distance.
WA R N I N G
• Under the following conditions, the
parking sensor system may not
work normally because the sensors
cannot detect obstacles correctly.
– Sensors are covered with mud,
ice or other materials. (Such
materials must be removed for
normal operation.)
– Sensors are wet from water
splashes or heavy rain.
– Sensors are covered by a hand,
sticker, accessory, etc.
– There is an accessory or other
object attached within the sen-
sor’s sensing area.
– Items such as tow hooks, com-
mercially available corner poles,
radio antenna, etc. are installed
on the bumper.
– The height of the bumper is
changed due to alteration to the
suspension or other causes.
– The sensor areas are extremely
hot from direct sunlight or cold
due to freezing weather.
– The vehicle is on a rough sur-
face, slope, gravel road or grass
field.
– The vehicle is at a steep angle.
(Continued)
WA R N I N G
(Continued)
– Sensors have intercepted ultra-
sonic noise from another vehi-
cle’s horn, engine, air braking
system (large vehicles), or park-
ing sensor.
– Obstacles are too close to the
sensors.
– Sensors are at an angle to a
highly reflective object such as
glass. (Ultrasonic waves are not
reflected back from the obstacle.)
• Sensors may not be able to cor-
rectly detect the following types of
obstacles:
– Objects made of a thin material
such as wire netting and ropes
– Square-shaped curbstones or
other objects with sharp edges
– Tall objects with a large upper
part such as a road sign
– Low-profile objects such as curb-
stones
– Sound-absorbing objects such
as cotton and snow
