WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the DCA
system could result in serious personal
injury or death.
.Always drive carefully and atten-
tively when using the DCA system.
Read and understand the Owner’s
Manual thoroughly before using the
DCA system. To avoid serious injury
or death, do not rely on the system
to prevent accidents or to control
the vehicle’s speed in emergency
situations. Do not use the DCA
system except in appropriate road
and traffic conditions.
. This system is only an aid to assist
the driver and is not a collision
warning or avoidance device. It is
the driver’ s responsibility to stay
alert, drive safely and be in control
of the vehicle at all times.
. As there is a performance limit to
the distance control function, never
rely solely on the DCA system. This
system does not correct careless,
inattentive or absent-minded driv- ing, or overcome poor visibility in
rain, fog, or other bad weather.
Decelerate the vehicle speed by
depressing the brake pedal, de-
pending on the distance to the
vehicle ahead and the surrounding
circumstances in order to maintain a
safe distance between vehicles.
. Always pay attention to the opera-
tion of the vehicle and be ready to
manually decelerate to maintain the
proper following distance. The DCA
system may not be able to decele-
rate the vehicle under some circum-
stances.
. This system only brakes and moves
the accelerator pedal upward to
help assist the driver to maintain a
following distance from the vehicle
ahead. Acceleration should be op-
erated by the driver.
. The DCA system does not control
vehicle speed or warn you when you
approach stationary and slow mov-
ing vehicles. You must pay attention
to vehicle operation to maintain
proper distance from vehicles
ahead.
