pedals were applied and the driver
removes his foot only from the
accelerater pedal, Launch Control
will be automatically deactivated. Or,
if the vehicle does not start after 4
seconds with a driver’s feet on both
brake and accelerate pedals,
Launch Control will automatically
deactivated as well. Do not operate both brake and
accelerate pedals simultaneously
for longer than 4 seconds.
When re-using Launch Control, a
driver should have the vehicle cool
down sufficiently by driving.
Limited use of Launch Control (3)
An warning message will pop up
on the screen if the transmission
fluid temperature is above a certain
level while using Launch Control.
Also, Launch Control will be auto-
matically deactivated.
To address the issue as above, a
driver should cool down the trans-
mission fluid temperature by driv-
ing the vehicle. (Driving at a con-
stant speed over 37 mph (60 km/h)
is highly recommended, but this
should only be done if traffic and
road conditions permit the driver to
do so safely.)

Driving your vehicle
When you press the [AUTO HOLD]
switch, if the driver's door and engine
hood are not closed or the driver's
seat belt is unfastened, a warning
will sound and a message will
appear on the LCD display. At this

Anti-lock brake system (ABS)
ABS (or ESC) will not prevent acci-
dents due to improper or dangerous
driving maneuvers. Even though
vehicle control is improved during
emergency braking, always maintain
a safe distance between you and
objects ahead. Vehicle speeds
should always be reduced during
extreme road conditions. The vehicle
should be driven at reduced speeds
in the following circumstances:
When driving on rough, gravel or
snow-covered roads
When driving with tire chains
installed
When driving on roads where the
road surface is pitted or has differ-
ent surface heights.
Driving in these conditions increases
the stopping distance for your vehicle.The ABS continuously senses the
speed of the wheels. If the wheels
are going to lock, the ABS system
repeatedly modulates the hydraulic
brake pressure to the wheels.
When you apply your brakes under
conditions which may lock the
wheels, you may hear a “tik-tik’’
sound from the brakes, or feel a cor-
responding sensation in the brake
pedal. This is normal and it means
your ABS is active.
In order to obtain the maximum benefit
from your ABS in an emergency situa-
tion, do not attempt to modulate your
brake pressure and do not try to pump
your brakes. Press your brake pedal as
hard as possible to allow the ABS to
control the force being delivered to the
brakes.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
A click sound may be heard in the
engine compartment when the vehi-
cle begins to move after the engine is
started. These conditions are normal
and indicate that the anti-lock brake
system is functioning properly.

the ‘EARLY’ condition feels
too sensitive, change it into
‘NORMAL’.

selected, the initial

Warning is activated nor-
mally. This setting allows
for a smaller amount of
distance between the
vehicle or pedestrian
ahead before the initial
warning occurs than

FCA warning message and
system control
FCA system produces warning mes-
sages, warning alarms, and emer-

when a vehicle ahead suddenly
brakes, or when the system detects
that a collision with a pedestrian is
imminent.
Collision Warning (1st warning)
The warning message appears on
the LCD display with the warning
alarms.
FCA controls the brakes within cer-
tain limit to reduce the impact from
the collision.

the LCD display with the warning
alarms.
FCA controls the brakes within cer-
tain limit to reduce the impact from
the collision.
FCA controls the maximum brakes
just before the collision.
If you select “Warning only”, FCA
system activates and produces
only warning alarms in accordance
with the collision risk levels. You
should control the brake directly
because FCA system do not con-
trol the brake.

in the roadway through radar
signals and camera recogni-
tion. It is not designed to
detect bicycles, motorcycles,
or smaller wheeled objects
such as luggage bags, shop-
ping carts, or strollers.
