AVSM detects the distance from the
vehicle ahead with the sensor, to
warn you before collision and protect
you in certain hazardous situations
by using warning message, warning
sound and seat belt vibration (ifequipped).
If the AVSM senses the objectahead too near the vehicle and if
driver's operating of the brake
pedal or the steering wheel should
be needed, the warning light illumi-
nates.
Immediately reduce your speed.
If the AVSM senses more danger- ous, the warning sound also oper-
ates and the accelerator
pedal/seat belt vibrates.
Immediately reduce your speed.
AVSM (IF EQUIPPED)CAUTION
Always check the road condi-
tions to prevent danger even ifthe warning light does not illu-minate, the warning sound does not operate or the acceleratorpedal/seat belt does not vibrate.

operate normally.ECS (electronic controlled suspension) malfunction indi-cator The ECS malfunction indicator will
illuminate when the engine start/stop
button is turned to the ON position,
but should go off after approximately
3 seconds. If the warning light does
not come on, or continuously
remains on after coming on for about
3 seconds when you turn the engine

2.Push the distance to distance switch for more than 2 seconds.
3.Choose between "Smart cruise control(SCC) mode" and "Cruisecontrol(CC) mode". Limitations of the system
The smart cruise control system may
have limits to its ability to detect dis-
tance to the vehicle ahead due to
road and traffic conditions.
On curves
On curves, the smart cruise control
system may not detect a moving
vehicle in your lane, and then your
vehicle could accelerate to the set
speed. Also, the vehicle speed will
rapidly down when the vehicle
ahead is recognized suddenly.
WARNING
When using the cruise control
mode, you must manuallyaccess the distance to other
vehicles as the system will not

WARNING
The LDWS does not make the vehicle change lanes. It is the driver's responsibility to
always check the road condi-tions.
Do not turn the steering wheel suddenly, when the LDWS
warns you that your vehicle is
leaving the lane.
If the sensor can not detect the lane or if the vehicle speed
does not exceed 60km/h, the
LDWS won't warn you even
though the vehicle leaves the
lane.
If your vehicle has window tint or other types of coating and
accessory on the front wind-
shield, the LDWS may not
work properly.
Do not let water or any kind of liquid come in contact with
the LDWS sensor.
(Continued)(Continued)
Do not remove the LDWSparts and do not affect the
sensor by a strong impact.
Do not put objects that reflect light on the dash board.
Always check the road condi- tions because you may not
hear the warning chime
because of audio, and exter-nal conditions.
