An example of "recreational towing" is
towing your vehicle behind a
motorhome.
The transmission is not designed for
towing this vehicle on all 4 wheels.
When doing recreational towing refer
to "Towing Description" (page 7-19)
and "Tiedown Hooks" (page 7-20)
and carefully follow the instructions.

WARNING
Do not rely completely on HLA:
HLA is an auxiliary device for
accelerating from a stop on a slope.
The system only operates for about 2
seconds and therefore, relying only on
the system, when accelerating from a
stop is dangerous because the vehicle
may move (roll) unexpectedly and
cause an accident.
The vehicle could roll depending on
the vehicle's load or if it is towing
something. In addition, for vehicles
with a manual transmission, the
vehicle could still roll depending on
how the clutch pedal or the accelerator
pedal is operated.
Always confirm the safety around the
vehicle before starting to drive the
vehicle.
NOTE
HLA does not operate on a gentle
slope. In addition, the gradient of
the slope on which the system will
operate changes depending on the
vehicle's load.
HLA does not operate if the parking
brake is applied, the vehicle has not
stopped completely, or the clutch
pedal is released.
While HLA is operating, the brake
pedal may feel stiff and vibrate,
however, this does not indicate a
malfunction.
HLA does not operate while the
TCS/DSC indicator light is
illuminated.
Refer to TCS/DSC Indication/
Indicator Light (Turns on) on page
7-27.
HLA does not turn off even if the TCS
OFF switch is pressed to turn off the
TCS.

chains installed.
Do not drive the vehicle with tire
chains on road conditions other than
snow or ice.

Two-wheeled vehicles such as
motorcycles or bicycles are ahead.
For safety purposes, switch the MRCC
system off when it is not being used.
Leaving the MRCC system turned on
when it is not in use is dangerous as it
could operate unexpectedly, resulting
in an accident.
CAUTION
Turn the system
off when the vehicle
is running on a chassis roller.
If your vehicle is towed or you are
towing something, switch the MRCC
system off to prevent an unexpected
operation.
NOTE
The MRCC system does not detect
the following as physical objects.
Vehicles approaching in the
opposite direction
Pe de st r i a nsStationary objects (stopped
vehicles, obstructions)
If a vehicle ahead is traveling at an
extremely low speed, the system
may not detect it correctly.
If there is a structure on the road or
an object (such as a monorail) at a
low height off the ground in front of
the vehicle, the system may operate.
Therefore, do not use the MRCC.
Do not use the MRCC system under
conditions in which close proximity
warnings are frequently activated.
During headway control travel, the
system accelerates and decelerates
your vehicle in conjunction with the
speed of the vehicle ahead.
However, if it is necessary to
accelerate for a lane change or if the
vehicle ahead brakes suddenly
causing you to close in on the vehicle
rapidly, accelerate using the
accelerator pedal or decelerate using
the brake pedal depending on the
conditions.
While the MRCC system is in use, it
does not cancel even if the shift lever
is operated and any intended engine
braking will not occur. If deceleration
is required, lower the vehicle speed
setting or depress the brake pedal.
While braking by the MRCC control
is operating , you might hear an
operation sound, however, this does
not indicate a problem.
The brake lights turn on while
braking by the MRCC control is
operating, however, they may not
turn on while the vehicle is on a
down slope at the set vehicle speed
or traveling at a constant speed and
following a vehicle ahead.
Stop the headway control function to
switch the system to the cruise
control function.

Smart Brake Support(SBS)
*
▼Smart Brake Support (SBS)
The SBS alerts the driver of a possible
collision using the warning indications
in the display and a warning sound if
the front radar sensor and Forward
Sensing Camera (FSC) determine that
there is the possibility of a collision
with a vehicle ahead, pedestrian, or a
bicycle. Furthermore, if a collision is
unavoidable, the automatic brake
control is performed to reduce damage
in the event of a collision. In addition,
when the driver de
presses the brake
pedal, the brakes are applied firmly
and quickly to assist.
(Vehicles with Driver Monitoring
(DM))
When the SBS determines that the
driver is not paying attention to the
road using the driver monitoring
camera and it determines that there is
the possibility of a collision with an
obstruction, the SBS activates the
collision warning earlier than normal.
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the SBS:
The SBS is only designed to reduce
damage in the event of a collision.
The ability to detect obstructions is
limited depending on the obstructions,
weather conditions, or traffic
conditions. Over reliance on the
system leading to the accelerator pedal
or brake pedal being mistakenly
operated could result in an accident.
CAUTION
In the following cases, turn the system
off to prevent an unexpected
operation.
The vehicle is being towed or when
towing another vehicle.
The vehicle is on a chassis roller.
When driving on rough roads such as
in areas of dense grass or off-road.
See the next page on how to turn
off
the system.
Refer to Stopping the Smart Brake
Support (SBS) System Operation on
page 4-157.
Operation conditions
The SBS operates when all of the
following conditions are met.
The ignition is switched ON.The SBS is on.The i-ACTIVSENSE warning
indication/warning light is not
turned on.
(Object is vehicle ahead)
The vehicle speed is about 4 km/h
(2 mph) or higher.
(Object is a pedestrian or bicycle)
The vehicle speed is between about
10 to 80 km/h (6.2 to 50 mph).
The DSC does not operate.
NOTE
Under the following conditions, the
SBS may not operate.
If there is the possibility of hitting
only a part of a vehicle or
obstruction ahead.
You are driving your vehicle at the
same speed as the vehicle ahead.
When the driver deliberately
performs driving operations
(accelerator operation, steering
