This helps maintain vehicle drivability and steering wheel handling.  When using the anti-lock brakes (sudden braking), steering is slightly differentfrom normal driving conditions. Use the steering wheel carefully.  Always keep a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you. Even if your vehi-cle is equipped with the anti-lock braking system, leave a greater braking distance when:• Driving on gravel or snow-covered roads. • Driving on uneven road surfaces. Operation of anti-lock braking system is not restricted situations where brakes are applied suddenly. This system may alsoprevent the wheels from locking when you drive over manholes, steel roadwork plates, road markings, or any uneven roadsurface.  When the anti-lock braking system is in use, you may feel the brake pedal vibrat-ing and hear a unique sound. It may also feel as if the pedal resists being pressed. In this situation, simply hold the brakepedal down firmly. Do not pump the brake, which will result in reduced braking performance.

Warning light
Warning display If there is a malfunction in the system, the anti-lock braking system warning light will come on and the warning display will appearon the information screen in the multi-infor-mation display. Under normal conditions
, the anti-lock brak-
ing system warning light only comes on whenthe ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position or the operation mode is put in ON and goes off a few seconds later.
Driving hints
CAUTION The anti-lock braking system cannot prevent accidents. It is your responsibility to take safety precautions and to drive carefully. To prevent failure of the anti-lock braking system, be sure all four wheels and tires are the same size and the same type.NOTE
 A whining sound is emitted from the engine compartment when driving immediately after starting the engine. These are the nor- mal sounds the anti-lock braking systemmakes when performing a self-check. It does not indicate a malfunction.  The anti-lock braking system can be used after the vehicle has reached a speed over approximately 6 mph (10 km/h). It stopsworking when the vehicle slows below 3 mph (5 km/h).

Adaptive Cruise Control System (ACC) (if so equipped) 5-92 Features and controls
5
N00576800064
Adaptive Cruise Control System (ACC) maintains a set speed with no need for you to use the accelerator pedal. Using a sensor (A), the system also measures the relative speedand distance between your vehicle and a vehi- cle in front, and maintains a set following dis- tance between your vehicle and the vehicle infront by automatically decelerating your vehi-cle if it becomes too close to the vehicle in front. The cruising set speed can be set from 20 to110 mph (30 to 180 km/h). The distance can be selected from four levels. If the vehicle in front decelerates, the ACCwill automatically apply limited braking to maintain the distance, and if the front vehicle then accelerates, the ACC will automaticallyaccelerate your vehicle up to the set speed. If your vehicle is approaching too close to the front vehicle, a buzzer will sound and a warn-ing is shown in the multi-information display. When the ACC detects no vehicle ahead, the set speed will be maintained.Conventional cruise control mode without the distance control can also be selected. Stop lights are illuminated during automaticbraking.

(if so equipped)
WA R N I N G Before using the ACC, read this entire sec- tion to understand the limitations of this system. Failure to follow instructions could result in an accident. Never rely solely on the ACC. The ACC is not a collision avoidance system or anautomatic driving system. It is designed to use only limited braking and is never a substitute for your safe and careful driv-ing. Always be ready to apply the brakes manually.

While the ACC system is turned on (in the standby state), if you push down the “SET -” switch when a vehicle in front is detected while your vehicle is stopped and you aredepressing the brake pedal, “HOLD” will appear and the vehicle speed will be set to 20 mph (30 km/h). You can set the speed anywhere from approx- imately 20 to 110 mph (30 to 180 km/h). While a vehicle in front is being detected and your vehicle speed is between approximately0 to 20 mph (0 to 30 km/h), you can activatethe ACC. In this case, the set speed will be set at 20 mph (30 km/h). The ACC cannot otherwise be activated whileyour vehicle is traveling less than 20 mph (30 km/h) or greater than 110 mph (180 km/h).
N00581300038
The speed of your vehicle will be maintainedat the speed you have set. The speed can be set between approximately 20 to 110 mph (30 to 180 km/h).
N00581400042
The ACC will maintain the distance to thefront vehicle and will apply the brakes auto- matically when the system judges braking is necessary. The distance can be selected fromfour levels. When the front vehicle stops, the ACC will automatically apply the brakes to stop yourvehicle. After the vehicle stops, the ACC system auto- matically enters the stationary vehicle holdstate. “HOLD” appears. While the ACC system is in the stationary vehicle hold state, if it is possible to resume following the vehicle in front because it has started moving, “ACC READY TORESUME” will appear on the information screen of the multi-information display. To start moving again, press the “RES+” switchor depress the accelerator pedal.
NOTE
 When any of the following conditions are present, the ACC will not activate. • When your vehicle speed is more than 110 mph (180 km/h). • When your vehicle is driven at speeds between approximately 0 to 20 mph (0 to30 km/h) and the ACC is not detecting a vehicle in front. • When ASC is in the OFF position.
• While ABS, ASC or TCL is activated. • When the selector lever is in positions other than “D” (DRIVE). • While the brake pedal is depressed (only while the vehicle is moving). • While the parking brake is applied. • When the ACC system has judged that the performance for detecting a front vehicle is degraded. • When an abnormality in the ACC system has been detected. • When the driver’s seat belt is unfastened. • When the driver’s door is opened.• When the vehicle is stopped on a steep slope.
When ACC detects no vehicle in front within the set distance

NOTE
 If the vehicle speed exceeds the set speed on a down slope, the system will automaticallyapply the brake to maintain the vehicle set speed.NOTE

When the ACC no longer detects a vehicle in front, the buzzer will sound, the vehicle sym- bol in the display will disappear and your vehicle will slowly accelerate to the setspeed.
N00576900052
While the ACC is activated, if your vehicle isapproaching too closely to the vehicle infront, the ACC gives a warning by sounding a buzzer and displaying a message. Apply the brakes to maintain the appropriate distance tothe vehicle in front.
WA R N I N G Never leave your vehicle while the ACC system is in the stationary vehicle hold state. When leaving the vehicle, apply the parking brake and move the selector leverto the “P” (PARK) position.NOTE
 When the ACC system is in the stationary vehicle hold state, the stop lights will illumi-nate.  While the ACC system is in the stationary vehicle hold state, the vehicle will not start moving again unless you press the “RES+” switch or depress the accelerator pedal.  When depressing the brake pedal while the automatic brake is applied, the brake pedalwill feel firm. This is normal. Depress the brake pedal harder to apply greater braking force.  During the automatic braking, operation sounds may be heard. This is normal.  If the turn-signal lever is operated while the ACC is active, the system may accelerate the vehicle to assist you in passing a vehicle in front.
 If the vehicle in front starts moving within 2 seconds after stopping, your vehicle will start moving.WA R N I N G Your vehicle may accelerate up to the set speed in the following situations. Apply the brake, if necessary, to slow down.• When your vehicle no longer follows thevehicle in front, e.g. at a freeway exit or when your vehicle or the vehicle in frontchanges its lane.NOTE
• When driving on a curve. When the vehicle in front has changed its course or lane, if a stationary vehicle appears in front your vehicle, the ACC will not decelerate your vehicle.

Forward Collision Mitigation system (FCM) (if so equipped)
5-104 Features and controls
5
N00577300125
The Forward Collision Mitigation system
(FCM) is designed to help reduce the risk of a
collision with a vehicle or a pedestrian
straight ahead of your vehicle. The FCM uses
a sensor (A) to determine the distance and
relative speed to a vehicle and a pedestrian in
front. The FCM is not designed as an auto-
matic driving system or as a collision avoid-
ance system.
When your vehicle is approaching a vehicle
or a pedestrian straight-ahead in your path
and the FCM judges that there is the risk of a
collision, the system will give audible and
visual warnings.
When the FCM judges that a collision with
the vehicle or the pedestrian straight-ahead is
imminent, the system will automatically
apply moderate braking to warn you to apply
the brakes immediately.
When the FCM judges that a collision with
the vehicle or the pedestrian straight-ahead is
highly unavoidable, the system will apply
emergency braking to reduce the severity of
the collision and, if possible, to avoid the col-
lision. Stop lights are illuminated during automatic
braking.Forward Collision Mitiga-
tion system (FCM)

If the system judges that there is a risk of your vehicle colliding with a vehicle or the pedestrian in front, this function warns you of the potential hazard with visual and audiblealarms. When this function is triggered, a buzzer sounds and, at the same time, a “BRAKE”message appears on the information screen ofthe multi-information display. The FCM will also prepare to provide quick brake response and greater brake force whenyou apply the brakes. The forward collision warning function oper- ates at the following vehicle speeds:  Against a vehicle: Approximately 10 to 87 mph (15 to 140 km/h). Against a pedestrian: Approximately 5 to 40 mph (7 to 65 km/h).
 Against a vehicle: Approximately 10 to 112 mph (15 to 180 km/h). Against a pedestrian: Approximately 5 to 40 mph (7 to 65 km/h).
 The FCM is designed to help avoid certain frontal collisions or reduce the crash speed in such collisions. It is not a substi- tute for your safe and careful driving. Under certain circumstances, the systemmay not operate or may not detect cor- rectly a vehicle or a pedestrian in front. When your vehicle is approaching a vehi-cle or a pedestrian too closely, take all nec- essary actions to avoid a collision, such as braking and steering, regardless ofwhether the FCM is activated or not. Never rely on the FCM to prevent a colli- sion. Never attempt to test the operation of the FCM. Doing so could cause an accident,resulting in serious injury or death.WA R N I N G
