 The FCW system will function when own vehicle is dr iven at speeds of approximately 15 km/h (10 MPH) and
above.
NOTE:
The FCW system shares the di agnosis function with ICC system.
FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
The distance from the vehicle ahead and a relative speed are calculated by using the ICC sensor and an ICC
sensor signal is transmitted to t he ADAS control unit via ITS communi cation. When judging the necessity of
warning according to the received vehicle ahead detection signal, the ADAS control unit transmits a buzzer
output signal and meter display signal to the combination meter via CAN communication.
FCW Operating Condition
 Warning systems ON indicator: ON
 Vehicle speed: Approximately 15 km/h (10 MPH) and above.
Fail-safe Indication
FCW INITIAL STATE CHANGE
CAUTION:
Never change FCW initial state “ON” ⇒ “OFF” without the con sent of the customer.
FCW initial state can be changed.
 FCW initial ON* - FCW function is automatically turned ON, when the ignition switch OFF ⇒ ON.
 FCW initial OFF - FCW function is still OFF when the ignition switch OFF ⇒ ON.
*: Factory setting
How to change FCW/LDW/BSW initial state1. Turn ignition switch ON.
2. Warning systems switch is OFF.
3. Push and hold warning systems switch for more than 4 seconds.
4. Buzzer sounds and blinking of the warning systems ON indicator informs that the FCW/LDW/BSW initial
state change is completed.
Fail-safe (ADAS Control Unit)INFOID:0000000006223674
If a malfunction occurs in each s ystem, ADAS control unit cancels eac h control, sounds a beep, and turns ON
the warning lamp or indicator lamp.

Precautions for Forward Collision WarningINFOID:0000000006223678
FORWARD COLLISION WARNING (FCW)
 FCW system is intended to warn the driver before a collis ion but will not avoid a collision. It is the drive's
responsibility to stay alert, drive safely and be in control of the vehicle at all times.
 As there is a performance limit, the FCW system ma y not provide a warning in certain conditions.
 The FCW system will not detect the following objects.
- Pedestrians, animals, or obstacles in the roadway.
- Oncoming vehicles in the same lane
 FCW system will not detect under the following conditions.
- When the sensor gets dirty, it is impossibl e to detect the distance from the vehicle ahead.
- When driving into a strong light (i.e. sunlight)
 The sensor generally detects signals returned from t he reflectors on a vehicle ahead. Therefore, the FCW
system may not warn properly under the following conditions:
- When the reflectors of the vehicle ahead are positioned high or close to each other (including a small vehicle such as motorcycles).
- When the sensor gets dirty or it is impossible to detect the distance to the vehicle ahead.
- When the reflectors on the vehicle ahead is missing, damaged or covered.
- When the reflector of the vehicle ahead is covered with dirt, snow or road spray.
- When visibility is low (such as rain, fog, snow, etc.).
- When snow or road spray from traveling vehicles are splashed.
- When dense exhaust or other smoke (black smoke) from vehicles reduces the visibility of the sensor.
- When excessively heavy baggage is loaded in the rear seat or the luggage room of own vehicle.
- When abruptly accelerating or decelerating.
- On steep downhill or roads with sharp curves.
- When there is a highly reflective object near the vehicle ahead.
i.e.) very close to other vehicle, signboard, etc.
- When own vehicle are towing a trailer.
 Depending on certain road conditions (curved, beginning of a curve), vehicle conditions (steering position,
vehicle position), or preceding vehicle's conditions (pos ition in lane, etc.), the FCW system may not function
properly. The FCW system may detect highly reflective obj ects such as reflectors, signs, white markers, and
other stationary objects on the road or near the traveling lane, and provide unnecessary warning.
 The FCW system may not function in offset conditions.
 The FCW system may not function when the dist ance to the vehicle ahead is extremely close.
 The FCW system is designed to automat ically check the sensor's functionality. If the sensor is covered with
ice, a transparent or translucent pl astic bag, etc., the system may not detect them. In these instances the
FCW system may not be able to warn properly. Be sure to check and clean the sensor regularly.
 Excessive noise will interfere with the warning chime sound, and the chime may not be heard.
 A sudden appearance of the vehicle in front (i.e.: w hen a vehicle abruptly cuts in) may not be detected and
the system may not warn soon enough.
 The FCW system will be canceled automatically with a chime sound and the IBA OFF indicator light will illu-
minate under the following conditions:
- When the sensor window is dirty
- When the FCW system malfunctions

 A sudden appearance of the vehicle in front (i.e.: w hen a vehicle abruptly cuts in) may not be detected and
the system may not warn soon enough.
 The FCW system will be canceled autom atically with a chime sound and the IBA OFF indicator light will illu-

Precautions for Blind Spot WarningINFOID:0000000006223856
SIDE RADAR HANDLING
 Side radar for BSW system is located inside the rear bumper.
 Always keep the rear bumper near the side radar clean.
 Do not attach a sticker (including transparent material), install an accessory or paintwork near the side radar.
 Do not strike or damage the areas around the side radar.
 Do not strike, damage, and scratch the side radar, especially the vent seal (gray circular) area, under repair.
PRECAUTIONS FOR BLIND SPOT WARNING
 The BSW system is not a replacement for proper driving procedure and are not designed to prevent contact
with vehicles or objects. When changing lanes, always us e the side and rear mirrors and turn and look in the
direction driver will move to ensure it is safe to change lanes. Never rely solely on the BSW system.
 The BSW system may not provide a warning for v ehicles that pass through the detection zone quickly.
 Do not use the BSW system when towing a trai ler because the system may not function properly.
 Excessive noise (e.g. audio system volume, open vehicle window) will interfere with the chime sound, and it may not be heard.
 The side radar may not be able to detect and activate BSW when certain objects are present such as:
- Pedestrians, bicycles, animals.
- Several types of vehicles such as motorcycles.
- Oncoming vehicles.
- Vehicles remaining in the detection z one when driver accelerate from a stop.
- A vehicle merging into an adjacent lane at a speed approximately the same as vehicle.
- A vehicle approaching rapidly from behind.
- A vehicle which vehicle overtakes rapidly.
 Severe weather or road spray conditions may reduce t he ability of the side radar to detect other vehicles.
 The side radar detection zone is designed based on a standard lane width. When driving in a wider lane, the
side radar may not detect vehicles in an adjacent lane. When driving in a narrow lane, the side radar may
detect vehicles driving two lanes away.
 The side radar are designed to ignore most stationary objects, however objects such as guardrails, walls,
foliage and parked vehicles may occasionally be det ected. This is a normal operating condition.
