- For pedestrians, the vehiclespeed is greater than or equal to
5 mph (8 km/h) and less than 40
mph (60 km/h). (Depending on
the condition of pedestrians and
the surrounding environment the
possible maximum operating
speed may be reduced.)
FCA controls the brakes within cer- tain limit to release shock from the
collision.
FCA controls the maximum brakes
just before the collision.
- If you select “Warning Only”, FCA
activates and produces only warn-
ing alarms in accordance with the
collision risk levels. You should
control the brake directly because
FCA do not control the brake.Brake operation
In an urgent situation, the brakingsystem enters into the ready status
for prompt reaction to assist the
driver in depressing the brake
pedal.
FCA provides additional braking power for optimum braking per-
formance, 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 canceled, when risk factors dis-
appear.
CAUTION
The driver should always paygreat caution to vehicle opera-tion, even though there is nowarning message or warningalarm.
WARNING
FCA cannot avoid all collisions.
FCA might not completely stop
the vehicle before a collision,
due to ambient, weather and
road conditions. The driver has
the responsibility to drive safely
and control the vehicle.
WARNING
FCA operates in accordance
with certain risk factors, such as
the distance from the
vehicle/passer-by in front, the
speed of the vehicle/passer-by in
front, and the driver's vehicle
operation.

responsibility to control and oper-
ate the vehicle safely. Do not solely
depend on FCA. Rather, maintain
a safe braking distance, and, if
necessary, depress the brake pedal
to lower the driving speed.
• In certain instances and under certain driving conditions, FCA
may activate unintentionally. This
initial warning message appears
on the LCD display with a warn-
ing chime.
Also, in certain instances the front
view camera may not detect the
vehicle or pedestrian ahead. FCA
may not activate and the warning
message will not be displayed.
• FCA may unnecessarily produce the warning message and the
warning alarms. Also, due to the
sensing limitation, FCA may not
produce the warning message and
the warning alarm at all.
(Continued)(Continued)
• When there is a malfunction with
FCA, the braking control does not
operate upon detecting a collision
risk even with other braking sys-
tems normally operating.
• FCA operates only for the vehi- cle/pedestrian in front, while driv-
ing forward. It does not operate
for any animals or vehicles in the
opposite direction.
• FCA does not recognize the vehi- cle, which transversally drives
across the crossroad, or the vehi-
cle, which is parked in the trans-
versal direction.
• If the vehicle in front stops sud- denly, you may have less control of
the brake system. Therefore,
always keep safe distance between
your vehicle and the vehicle in
front of you.
• FCA may activate during braking and the vehicle may stop suddenly.
And the load in the vehicle may
endanger passengers. Therefore,
always be mindful of the load vol-
ume in the vehicle. (Continued)(Continued)
• FCA may not activate if the driver
applies the brake pedal to avoid
risk of collision.
• FCA does not operate when the vehicle is in reverse. In these cir-
cumstances, you must maintain a
safe braking distance, and if nec-
essary, depress the brake pedal to
reduce the driving speed in order
to maintain a safe dis tance.
• The regular braking function will operate normally even if There is a
problem with the FCA brake con-
trol system or other functions. In
this case, the braking control will
not operate in an imminent colli-
sion.
• FCA may not activate according to driving condition, traffic on the
road, weather, road condition, etc.
• FCA may not activate in response to all types of vehicles.

The performance of Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist system
may be limited when driving on a
curved road.The front camera recognition system
may not detect the vehicle or pedes-
trian traveling in front on a curved
road. This may result in no alarm
and braking when necessary.
Always pay attention to road and
driving conditions, and if necessary,
depress the brake pedal to reduce
your driving speed in order to main-
tain a safe distance.
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
system may recognize a vehicle or

ing conditions, while driving.
- Driving on a slope
The performance of Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist system
may be decreased while driving
upward or downward on a slope. The
front camera recognition may not
detect the vehicle or pedestrian in
front.This may result in unnecessary alarm
and braking or no alarm and braking
when necessary.
