Prerequisite for activation
The FCA gets ready to be activated
when the FCA is selected on the
LCD display, and when the following
prerequisites are satisfied.
- The ESC is ON.
- The driving speed is over 10 km/h(6 mph ). (However, FCA is activat-
ed within certain driving speed.)
- When recognizing a vehicle in front. (However, FCA deactivates
according to conditions in front and
vehicle systems, but it notices only
certain warnings.)
- The FCA automatically deactivates upon canceling the ESC. When the
ESC is cancelled, the FCA cannot
be activated on the LCD display. In
this situation, the FCA warning
light will illuminate.
FCA warning message and
system control
The FCA system produces warning
messages, warning alarms, and
emergency braking based on the risk
of a frontal collision, such as when a
vehicle ahead suddenly brakes.
The driver can select the initial warn-
ing activation time in the User Settings
in the LCD display. The options for the
initial Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist include Early, Normal or Late
initial warning time.
WARNING
The FCA automatically acti-vates upon placing the igni-
tion switch to the ON position.
The driver can deactivate the
FCA by canceling the system
setting on the LCD display.
The FCA automatically deacti- vates upon canceling the
ESC. When the ESC is can-
celled, the FCA cannot be
activated on the LCD display.
The FCA warning light will
illuminate, but it does not indi-
cate a malfunction of the sys-
tem.
Set or cancel FCA with the control switches on the steer-
ing wheel after stopping the
vehicle in a safe place.

Collision Warning! (1st warning)
This warning message appears on
the LCD display with a warning
chime.
Additionally, the engine management
system intervenes to help decelerate
the vehicle.
- Your vehicle speed may decelerate
moderately.
- The FCA system limitedly controls the brakes to preemptively mitigate
impact from a collision.
Emergency braking! (2nd warning)
This warning message appears on
the LCD display with a warning
chime.
Additionally, the engine management
system intervenes to help decelerate
the vehicle.
- The FCA system limitedly controlsthe brakes to preemptively mitigate
impact from a collision. The brake
control is maximized just before a
collision.
Brake operation
In an emergency situation, the braking system enters in ready sta-
tus for prompt reaction upon the
driver depressing the brake pedal.
The FCA system provides addi- tional braking power for optimum
braking performance when the
driver depresses the brake pedal.
The braking control is automatical- ly deactivated when the driver
sharply depresses the accelerator
pedal or when the driver abruptly
operates the steering wheel.
The braking control is automatical- ly cancelled when risk factors dis-
appear.

When driving in stop-and-go traffic,
and a stopped vehicle in front of you
merges out of the lane, the FCA sys-
tem may not immediately detect the
new vehicle that is now in front of
you. In this situation, you must main-
tain a safe braking distance, and if
necessary, depress the brake pedal
to reduce your driving speed in order
to maintain a safe distance. - Recognizing the vehicle
If the vehicle in front of you has cargo
that extends rearward from the cab,
or when the vehicle in front of you
has higher ground clearance, addi-
tional special attention is required.
The FCA system may not be able to
recognize the cargo extending from
the vehicle. In these instances, you
must maintain a safe braking dis-
tance from the rearmost object, and
if necessary, depress the brake
pedal to reduce your driving speed in
order to maintain a safe distance.

WARNING
Do not use the FCA system
when towing a vehicle. Cancel
the FCA in the User Settings
on the LCD display before
towing. Brake application by
the FCA system while towing
may adversely affect your
safety.
Use extreme caution when the vehicle in front of you has
cargo that extends rearward
from the cab, or when the
vehicle in front of you has
higher ground clearance.
The FCA system is designed to detect and monitor the
vehicle ahead through camera
recognition. It is not designed
to detect pedestrians, bicy-
cles, motorcycles, or smaller
wheeled objects such as lug-
gage bags, shopping carts, or
strollers.

SMART mode selects the
proper driving mode
among ECO, NORMAL
and SPORT by judging
the driver's driving habits
(i.e. mild or dynamic)
from the brake pedal
depression or the steer-
ing wheel operation.
Press the DRIVE MODE button to activate SMART mode. When
SMART mode is activated, the
indicator illuminates on the instru-
ment cluster.
The indicator illuminates in blue when the driver's driving is catego-
rized to be mild. It illuminates in
white when the driver's driving is
categorized to be normal. It illumi-
nates in red when the driver's driv-
ing is categorized to be dynamic
during abrupt braking or sharp
curves. The vehicle starts in NORMAL
mode if the engine was turned
OFF in SMART mode.
SMART mode automatically con- trols driving characteristics, such
as gear shifting patterns, engine
torque, and ride quality in accor-
dance with the driver's driving
habits.✽ ✽ NOTICE
• When you drive the vehicle mildly
drive the vehicle in SMART mode,
the driving mode changes to ECO
mode to improve fuel efficiency.
However, the actual fuel efficiency
may differ in accordance with
your driving situation (i.e.
upward/downward slope, vehicle
deceleration/acceleration).
• When you drive the vehicle dynamically drive the vehicle in
SMART mode by abruptly decel-
erating or sharply turning, the
driving mode changes to SPORT
mode. However, it may adversely
affect fuel economy.SMART

Driving your vehicle
Various driving situations which you
may encounter in SMART mode
The driving mode automaticallychanges to ECO mode after a cer-
tain period of time when you gently
depress the accelerator pedal
(Your driving is categorized to be
mild).
The driving mode automatically changes from SMART ECO mode
to SMART NORMAL mode after a
certain period of time when you
sharply or repetitively depress the
accelerator pedal.
The driving mode automatically changes to SMART NORMAL
mode with the same driving pat-
terns when the vehicle starts to
drive on an upward slope of a cer-
tain angle. The driving mode auto-
matically returns to SMART ECO
mode when the vehicle enters a
leveled road. The driving mode automatically
changes to SMART SPORT when
you abruptly accelerate the vehicle
or repetitively operate the steering
wheel (Your driving is categorized
to be sporty). In this mode, your
vehicle drives in a lower gear for
faster accelerating/decelerating
and increased engine brake per-
formance.
You may still sense the engine brake performance, even when you
release the accelerator pedal in
SMART SPORT mode. It is
because your vehicle remains in a
lower gear over a certain period of
time.
The driving mode automatically changes to SMART SPORT mode
only in dynamic driving situations.
In most normal driving situations
the driving mode sets to either
SMART ECO mode or SMART
NORMAL mode. Limitation of SMART mode
The SMART mode may be limited in
following situations. (The OFF indica-
tor illuminates in those situations.)
The driver manually moves the
shift lever : It deactivates SMART
mode.
The cruise control is activated : The cruise system may deactivate
the SMART mode. (SMART mode
is not automatically deactivated
just by activing the cruise system.)
The transmission oil temperature is either extremely low or extremely
high : The SMART mode can be
active in most of the normal driving
situations. However an extremely
high/ low transmission oil tempera-
ture may temporarily deactivate the
SMART mode, because the trans-
mission condition is out of normal
operation condition.
