NOTElThe set speed indication on the display turns
to “---” when the accelerator pedal is de- pressed. This indication remains as long as
the pedal is in a depressed position.
l In certain conditions, the braking control and
alarming functions of ACC may not work
for a short while after releasing the accelera- tor pedal.
l Set speed adjustment is impossible while the
accelerator pedal is in a depressed position.
To terminate ACC control
To cancel of ACC control
You can cancel the ACC control by using ei-
ther of the methods below.
When the control is cancelled, the system is placed in the ‘standby state’. You can makethe system restart the control by using the
“SET -” or “RES +” switch if the conditions for activating the control are met.
l Press the “CANCEL” switch.
l Depress the brake pedal.NOTElYou can also cancel the ACC control by
pressing the “ACC ON/OFF” switch. If thisswitch is pressed, ACC is turned off.
When the system shifts into the ‘standby
state’ as a result of cancellation of the ACC
control, the“ SET” indicator goes out. At the same time, the display of the following dis-
tance setting and running-ahead vehicle sym- bol (only when ACC is detecting a vehicle) is
placed in the standby state of display.
The ACC control is automatically cancelled
and the ACC is placed in the ‘standby’ state
in any of the situations listed below; you are
alerted to this condition by the sound of a
buzzer and a message on the display. You can make the system restart the control by us-ing the “SET -” or “RES +” switch if the con-
ditions for resuming the control are reestab-
lished.
l When your vehicle stops as the vehicle
in front stops.
l When ASC is turned off.
l When ABS, ASC or TCL is in operation.
Adaptive Cruise Control System (ACC)*
7-61OGGE18E1Starting and driving7

CAUTIONlCruise control (automatic vehicle speed con-
trol system) does not alert by proximity
alarm and control distance between vehicles to the vehicle in front.Forward Collision
Mitigation System (FCM)* E00635101243
The Forward Collision Mitigation System(FCM) uses a sensor (A) to determine the distance and relative speed to a vehicle and apedestrian in front.
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 gives audible and visualwarnings (forward collision warning func-
tion), increases the brake fluid pressure (FCM brake prefill function), and also pro-vides braking force assistance when you de-press the brake pedal (FCM brake assist func-
tion) to avoid frontal collision.
When the risk of collision increases more, the system causes the brakes to work moderately
to encourage you to apply brakes. If the sys- tem judges that a potential collision is immi- nent, it initiates emergency braking to miti-
gate collision-caused damages or to avoid possible collision (FCM braking function).
Stop lamps are illuminated during automatic
braking.
If you turn the FCM ON/OFF, the Ultrasonic misacceleration Mitigation System (UMS) al- so turns ON/OFF at the same time. (Vehicles
equipped with the UMS)WARNINGl A driver is responsible for driving safely.
The FCM is the system to mitigate colli- sion-caused damages or to avoid collisionsas much as possible.
The system is not intended to compensate for driver’s loss of attention to the frontduring driving due to distraction or care-
lessness or supplement a drop in visibility
due to the rain and fog.
It is never a substitute for your safe and careful driving. Always be ready to apply
the brakes manually.
l The FCM works to avoid frontal collisions
as much as possible. However, the effect
of its operation varies depending on situa- tions and conditions, such as driving con-ditions, road conditions, and steering, ac-
celeration and braking operations, so that
the performance the function can deliver
is not always the same.
If your vehicle is in danger of collision,
take all necessary collision-evading ac- tions, such as depressing the brake pedal
strongly regardless of whether the system is activated or not.
l Never attempt to test the operation of the
FCM. Doing so could cause an accident,
resulting in serious injury or death.
Forward Collision Mitigation System (FCM)*

Forward collision warningfunction
E00635401129
If the system judges that there is a risk of
your vehicle colliding with a vehicle or a pe-
destrian in front, this function warns you of
the potential hazard with visual and audible
alarms.
When this function is triggered, a buzzer
sounds and, at the same time, a “BRAKE!”
message appears on the information screen of
the multi-information display.
The forward collision warning function oper- ates at the following vehicle speed:
l Against a vehicle: Approximately
15 km/h (9 mph) to 140 km/h (87 mph).
l Against a pedestrian: Approximately
7 km/h (5 mph) to 65 km/h (40 mph).
CAUTIONl Under certain conditions, the audible alarm
may not work at all or may be scarcely audi- ble. Do not overly rely on the system; if your
vehicle is in danger of collision, take all nec- essary collision-evading actions, such as de-
pressing the brake pedal strongly regardless of whether the system is activated or not.FCM brake prefill function
E00635201055
If the system judges that there is a risk of
your vehicle colliding with a vehicle or a pe-
destrian in front, this function prefills the
brake line with additional brake fluid to make
the brakes more responsive to your brake pedal operation.
The FCM brake prefill function operates at
the following vehicle speed:
l Against a vehicle: Approximately
5 km/h (3 mph) to 80 km/h (50 mph).
l Against a pedestrian: Approximately
5 km/h (3 mph) to 65 km/h (40 mph).
FCM brake assist function
E00635301072
If the system judges that there is a risk of
your vehicle colliding with a vehicle or a pe-
destrian in front, this function deploys the
brake assist sooner than the brake assist oper- ation.
The FCM brake assist function operates at
the following vehicle speed:
l Against a vehicle: Approximately
15 km/h (9 mph) to 80 km/h (50 mph).
l Against a pedestrian: Approximately
15 km/h (9 mph) to 65 km/h (40 mph).CAUTIONl The brake assist function may not be trig-
gered when the brake pedal is operated in certain ways.
Do not overly rely on the system; if your ve- hicle is in danger of collision, take all neces-
sary collision-evading actions, such as de-
pressing the brake pedal strongly regardless of whether the system is activated or not.FCM braking function
E00635501380
If the system judges that there is a high risk
of your vehicle colliding with a vehicle or a
pedestrian in front, the system applies the
brakes moderately to encourage you to apply the brakes.
If the system judges that a collision is un-
avoidable, it initiates emergency braking con- trol to mitigate collision-caused damages or, if the situation permits, to avoid a collision.When the emergency braking control is trig-
gered, you are warned of the hazard with vis- ual and audible alarms like with the forwardcollision warning function.
Forward Collision Mitigation System (FCM)*
7-65OGGE18E1Starting and driving7

Once the emergency braking has worked, you
are alerted to this by a message on the infor- mation screen of the multi-information dis- play.
The FCM braking function operates at the
following vehicle speed:
l Against a vehicle: Approximately
5 km/h (3 mph) to 80 km/h (50 mph).
l Against a pedestrian: Approximately
5 km/h (3 mph) to 65 km/h (40 mph).
CAUTIONl Do not use the FCM as a normal braking.
l After your vehicle has stopped following the
activation of the FCM, automatic braking is released. As the vehicle will then start creep-
ing, be sure to depress the brake pedal to
hold the vehicle stationary.CAUTIONl When applying the brake during the auto-
matic braking condition the pedal will feel firm.
This is not abnormal.
You can apply more pressure to the pedal to
assist in braking.
l In the following situations, the system pro-
vides neither control nor alarming.
• When a vehicle or a pedestrian suddenly
cuts in front of your vehicle.
• When the distance from a vehicle or a pe-
destrian in front is extremely short.
