system could result in serious injury or
death.
.ICC is not a collision avoidance or
warning device. For highway use only
and it is not intended for congested
areas or city driving. Failure to apply
the brakes could result in an accident.
.Always observe posted speed limits
and do not set the speed over them.
.Always drive carefully and atten-
tively when using either cruise con-
trol mode. Read and understand the
Owner’s Manual thoroughly before
using the cruise control. To avoid
serious injury or death, do not rely
on the system to prevent accidents or
to control the vehicle’s speed in
emergency situations. Do not use
cruise control except in appropriate
road and traffic conditions.
.In the conventional (fixed speed)
cruise control mode, a warning chime
will not sound to warn you if you are

The driver sets the desired vehicle speed
based on the road conditions. The ICC
system maintains the set vehicle speed,
similar to standard cruise control, as long
as no vehicle is detected in the lane ahead.
The ICC system displays the set speed.
Vehicle detected ahead:
When a vehicle is detected in the lane ahead,
the ICC system decelerates the vehicle by
controlling the throttle and applying the
brakes to match the speed of a slower
vehicle ahead. The system then controls thevehicle speed based on the speed of the
vehicle ahead to maintain the driver selected
distance.
NOTE:
.The stop lights of the vehicle come on
when braking is performed by the ICC
system.
.When the brake operates, a noise may be
heard. This is not a malfunction.
When a vehicle ahead is detected, the
vehicle ahead detection indicator comes on.
The ICC system will also display the set
speed and selected distance.

control the proper distance ahead of your
vehicle.
Also, the sensor sensitivity can be affected
by vehicle operation (steering maneuver or
driving position in the lane) or traffic or
vehicle condition (for example, if a vehicle is
being driven with some damage).
Automatic cancellation
A chime sounds under the following condi-
tions and the control is automatically can-
celed.
.When the vehicle ahead is not detected
and your vehicle is traveling below the
speed of 15 MPH (24 km/h)
.When the system judges the vehicle is at

Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control
mode limitations
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for the ICC system. Failure to operate
the vehicle in accordance with these
system limitations could result in serious
injury or death.
.The system is primarily intended for
use on straight, dry, open roads with
light traffic. It is not advisable to use
the system in city traffic or con-
gested areas.
.This system will not adapt automati-
cally to road conditions. This system
should be used in evenly flowing
traffic. Do not use the system on
roads with sharp curves, or on icy
roads, in heavy rain or in fog.
.As there is a performance limit to the
distance control function, never rely
solely on the ICC system. This system
does not correct careless, inattentive
or absent-minded driving, or over-
come poor visibility in rain, fog, orother bad weather. Decelerate the
vehicle speed by depressing the brake
pedal, depending on the distance to
the vehicle ahead and the surround-
ing circumstances in order to main-
tain a safe distance between vehicles.
.If the vehicle ahead comes to a stop,
the vehicle decelerates to a standstill
within the limitations of the system.
The system will cancel once it judges
that the vehicle has come to a
standstill and sound a warning chime.
To prevent the vehicle from moving,
the driver must depress the brake
pedal.
.Always pay attention to the opera-
tion of the vehicle and be ready to
manually control the proper follow-
ing distance. The vehicle-to-vehicle
distance control mode of the ICC
system may not be able to maintain
the selected distance between vehi-
cles (following distance) or selected
vehicle speed under some circum-
stances.
.The system may not detect the
vehicle in front of you in certain road
or weather conditions. To avoid ac-
cidents, never use the ICC system
under the following conditions:

The DCA system helps assist the driver to
keep a following distance to the vehicle
ahead by braking and moving the accelera-
tor pedal upward in the normal driving
condition.
When a vehicle ahead is detected:
The vehicle ahead detection indicator ap-
pears.
When the vehicle approaches a vehicle
ahead:.If the driver’s foot is not on the accel-
erator pedal, the system activates the
brakes to decelerate smoothly as neces-
sary. If the vehicle ahead comes to a
stop, the vehicle decelerates to a stand-
still within the limitations of the system.
.If the driver’s foot is on the accelerator
pedal, the system moves the accelerator
pedal upward to assist the driver to
release the accelerator pedal.
When brake operation by the driver is
required:
The system alerts the driver by a warning
chime and blinking the vehicle ahead detec-
tion indicator. If the driver’s foot is on the
accelerator pedal after the warning, thesystem moves the accelerator pedal upward
to assist the driver to switch to the brake
pedal.
NOTE:
.The stop lights of the vehicle come on
when braking is performed by the DCA
system.
.When the brake operates, a noise may be
heard. This is not a malfunction.
Overriding the system:
The following driver’s operation overrides
the system operation.
.When the driver depresses the accelera-
tor pedal even further while the system is
moving the accelerator pedal upward,
the DCA system control of the accel-
erator pedal is canceled.
.When the driver’s foot is on the accel-
erator pedal, the brake control by the
system is not operated.
.When the driver’s foot is on the brake
pedal, neither the brake control nor the
alert by the system operates.
.When the Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC)
system is set, the DCA system will be
inactive.

FEB WITH PEDESTRIAN DETEC-
TION SYSTEM OPERATION
The FEB with pedestrian detection system
operates at speeds above approximately 3
MPH (5 km/h). For the pedestrian detection
function, the system operates at speeds
between 6 – 37 MPH (10 – 60 km/h).
If a risk of a forward collision is detected, the
FEB with pedestrian detection system will
provide the first warning to the driver by
flashing the driver assist system forward
indicator (orange)
and the vehicle ahead
detection indicator (orange), and provid-
ing an audible warning. In addition, the FEB
with pedestrian detection system pushes the
accelerator pedal up, and then the system
applies partial braking. If the driver applies
the brakes quickly and forcefully, but the
FEB with pedestrian detection system de-
tects that there is still the possibility of a
forward collision, the system will automati-
cally increase the braking force.
If the risk of a collision becomes imminent
and the driver does not take action, the FEB
with pedestrian detection system issues the
second warning to the driver by flashing the
FEB system emergency warning indicator
(red)
, providing an audible warning, and
then automatically applies harder braking.
If a risk of a forward impact with a
pedestrian is detected, the FEB with pedes-

trian detection system will provide a warning
to the driver by flashing the FEB system
emergency warning indicator (red)
, pro-
vides an audible alert and the system will
apply partial braking. If the driver applies the
brakes quickly and forcefully but the FEB
with pedestrian detection system detects
that there is still the possibility of a forward
impact with a pedestrian, the system will
automatically increase the braking force. If
the risk of collision becomes imminent and
the driver does not take action, the FEB with
pedestrian detection system automatically
applies harder braking.
NOTE:
The vehicle’s stop lights come on when any
braking is performed by the FEB with
pedestrian detection system.
Depending on vehicle speed and distance to
the vehicle or pedestrian ahead, as well as
driving and roadway conditions, the system
may help the driver avoid a forward collision
or may help mitigate the consequences of a
collision should one be unavoidable. If the
driver is handling the steering wheel, accel-
erating or braking, the FEB with pedestrian
detection system will function later or will
not function.
The automatic braking will cease under the
following conditions:.When the steering wheel is turned to
avoid a collision.
.When the accelerator pedal is depressed.
.When there is no longer a vehicle or a
pedestrian detected ahead.
If the FEB with pedestrian detection system
has stopped the vehicle, the vehicle will
remain at a standstill for approximately 2
seconds before the brakes are released.

MPH (80 km/h).
— For pedestrian detection, the
FEB with pedestrian detection
system will not function when
the vehicle is driven at speeds
over approximately 37 MPH (60
km/h) or below approximately 6
MPH (10km/h).
.The FEB with pedestrian detection
system will not function for pedes-
trians in darkness or in tunnels, even
if there is street lighting in the area.
.For pedestrians, the FEB with pedes-
trian detection system will not issue
the first warning and will not push
the accelerator pedal up.
.The FEB with pedestrian detection
system may not function if the vehi-
cle ahead is narrow (for example amotorcycle).
.The FEB with pedestrian detection
system may not function if speed
difference between the two vehicles
is too small.
.The radar sensor FEB with pedes-
trian detection system may not func-
tion properly or detect a vehicle
ahead in the following conditions:
— Poor visibility (conditions such as
rain, snow, fog, dust storms,
sandstorms, and road spray from
other vehicles)
— Driving on a steep downhill slope
or roads with sharp curves.
— Driving on a bumpy road surface,
such as an uneven dirt road.
— If dirt, ice, snow or other material
is covering the radar sensor area.
— Interference by other radar
sources.
— The camera area of windshield is
fogged up, or covered with dirt,
water drops, ice, snow, etc.
— Strong light (for example, sun-
light or high beams from oncom-
ing vehicles) enters the front
camera. Strong light causes the
area around the pedestrian to be

cast in a shadow, making it diffi-
cult to see.
— A sudden change in brightness
occurs. (For example, when the
vehicle enters or exits a tunnel or a
shaded area or lightning flashes.)
— The poor contrast of a person to
the background, such as having
clothing color or pattern which is
similar to the background.
— The pedestrian’s profile is par-
tially obscured or unidentifiable
due to the pedestrian transport-
ing luggage, wearing bulky or very
loose-fitting clothing or acces-
sories.
