5-98Starting and driving
AEB with pedestrian detection system
operates at speeds between 6 – 37 MPH
(10 – 60 km/h).
If a risk of a forward collision is detected,
the AEB with pedestrian detection system
will firstly provide the warning to the
driver by flashing the vehicle ahead
detection indicator (yellow) in the vehicle
information display and providing an
audible alert. In addition, the system
applies partial braking.
If the driver applies the brakes quickly and
forcefully after the warning, and the AEB
with pedestrian detection system detects
that there is still the possibility of a
forward collision, the system will auto-
matically increase the braking force.
If the driver does not take action, the AEB
with pedestrian detection system issues
the second visual (flashing) (red) and
audible warning. Then the system applies
partial braking.
If the risk of a collision becomes immi-
nent, the AEB with pedestrian detection
system applies harder braking automati-
cally.
While the AEB with pedestrian detection
system is operating, you may hear the
sound of brake operation. This is normal
and indicates that the AEB with pedes-
trian detection system is operating prop-erly.
NOTE:
The vehicle’s stop lights come on when
braking is performed by the AEB with
pedestrian detection system.
Depending on vehicle speed and distance
to the vehicle or pedestrian ahead, as well
as driving and roadway conditions, the
system may help the driver avoid a
forward collision or may help mitigate
the consequences of a collision should
one be unavoidable.
If the driver is handling the steering
wheel, accelerating or braking, the AEB
with pedestrian detection system will
function later or will not function.
The automatic braking will cease under
the following conditions:
.
When the steering wheel is turned as
far as necessary to avoid a collision.
. When the accelerator pedal is de-
pressed.
. When there is no longer a vehicle,
pedestrian detected ahead.
If the AEB with pedestrian detection
system has stopped the vehicle, the
vehicle will remain at a standstill for
approximately 2 seconds before the
brakes are released.
When the brake pedal is depressed while the brake is applied by the system, you
may feel the pedal effort is changed and
may hear a sound and vibration noise.
This is normal and does not indicate a
malfunction. In addition, the braking force
can be increased by adding the pedal
effort.

AEB WITH PEDESTRIAN DETECTION
SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for the AEB with pedestrian
detection system. Failure to operate
the vehicle in accordance with these
system limitations could result in
Starting and driving5-99

5-100Starting and driving
serious injury or death.
.The AEB with pedestrian detec-
tion system cannot detect all
vehicles or pedestrians under all
conditions.
. The AEB with pedestrian detec-
tion system does not detect the
following:
— Pedestrians that are small (for
example, children), in a sitting
position, operating toys/ska-
teboards, on scooters or in
wheelchairs, or not in an up-
right standing or walking po-
sition.
— Animals of any size.
— Obstacles (for example, cargo or debris) on the roadway or
roadside.
— Oncoming or crossing vehi- cles.
— Vehicles where the tires are difficult to see or the shape of
the rear of the vehicle is un-
clear or obstructed.
— Parked vehicles.
. The AEB with pedestrian detec-
tion system has some perfor-
mance limitations. — If a stationary vehicle is in the
vehicle’s path, the system will
not function when the vehicle
approaches the stationary ve-
hicle at speeds over approxi-
mately 50 MPH (80 km/h).
— Pedestrian detection will not function when the vehicle is
driven at speeds over ap-
proximately 37 MPH (60
km/h) or below approxi-
mately 6 MPH (10 km/h).
. For pedestrians, the AEB with
pedestrian detection system will
not issue the first warning.
. The AEB with pedestrian detec-
tion system may not function
properly or detect a vehicle or
pedestrian ahead in the following
conditions:
— In poor visibility conditions
(such as rain, snow, fog, dust
storms, sand storms, smoke,
and road spray from other
vehicles).
— If dirt, ice, snow, fog or other material is covering the radar
sensor area or camera area of
the windshield. — If strong light (for example,
sunlight or high beams) en-
ters the front camera or a
sudden change in brightness
occurs (for example, entering
a tunnel or driving in light-
ning).
— In dark or dimly lit conditions, such as at night or in tunnels,
including cases where your
vehicle’s headlights are off or
dim, or the tail lights of the
vehicle ahead are off.
— When the direction of the camera is misaligned.
— When driving on a steep downhill slope, on roads with
sharp curves, and/or bumpy
or dirt roads.
— If there is interference by other radar sources.
— When your vehicle’s position or movement is changed
quickly or significantly (for
example, lane change, turning
vehicle, abrupt steering, sud-
den acceleration or decelera-
tion).

— When your vehicle or the ve-hicle or pedestrian ahead
moves quickly or significantly
such that the system cannot
detect and react in time (for
example, pedestrian moving
quickly toward the vehicle at
close range, vehicle cutting in,
changing lanes, making a
turn, steering abruptly, sud-
den acceleration or decelera-
tion).
— When the vehicle or pedes- trian is offset from the vehi-
cle’s forward path.
— If the speed difference be- tween the two vehicles is
small.
— The pedestrian’s profile is par- tially obscured or unidentifi-
able; for example, due to
transporting luggage, push-
ing a stroller, wearing bulky
or very loose-fitting clothing
or accessories, or being in a
unique posture (such as rais-
ing hands).
— There is poor contrast of a person to the background,
such as having clothing color
or pattern which is similar to the background.
— For approximately 15 seconds after starting the engine
— If the vehicle ahead has a unique or unusual shape, ex-
tremely low or high clearance
heights, or unusual cargo
loading or is narrow (for ex-
ample, a motorcycle).
— When the vehicle or pedes- trian is located near a traffic
sign, a reflective area (for ex-
ample, water on road), or is in
a shadow.
— When multiple pedestrians are grouped together.
— When the view of the pedes- trian is obscured by a vehicle
or other object.
— While towing a trailer or other vehicle.
. The system performance may be
degraded in the following condi-
tions:
— The vehicle is driven on a
slippery road.
— The vehicle is driven on a slope. — Excessively heavy baggage is
loaded in the rear seat or the
cargo area of your vehicle.
. The system is designed to auto-
matically check the sensor (radar
and camera)’s functionality, with-
in certain limitations. The system
may not detect some forms of
obstruction of the sensor area
such as ice, snow or stickers, for
example. In these cases, the sys-
tem may not be able to warn the
driver properly. Be sure that you
check, clean and clear sensor
areas regularly.
. In some road and traffic condi-
tions, the AEB with pedestrian
detection system may unexpect-
edly apply partial braking. When
acceleration is necessary, de-
press the accelerator pedal to
override the system.
. The AEB with pedestrian detec-
tion system may operate when a
pattern, object, shadow or lights
are detected that are similar to
the outline of vehicles or pedes-
trians, or if they are the same size
and position as a vehicle or mo-
torcycle’s tail lights.

.Braking distances increase on
slippery surfaces.
. Excessive noise will interfere with
the warning chime sound, and
the chime may not be heard.
SSD0253
When driving on some roads, such as
winding, hilly, curved, narrow roads, or
roads which are under construction or on
a slope, the sensor may detect vehicles in
a different lane, or may temporarily not
detect a vehicle traveling ahead. This may
cause the system to work inappropriately.
The detection of vehicles may also be
affected by vehicle operation (steering
maneuver or traveling position in the
lane, etc.) or vehicle condition. If this
occurs, the system may warn you by
blinking the system indicator and
sounding the chime unexpectedly. You
will have to manually control the proper
distance away from the vehicle travel-
ing ahead.SYSTEM TEMPORARILY UNAVAIL-

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The radar sensoris located on the front
of the vehicle. The camerais located on
the upper side of the windshield.
To keep the AEB with pedestrian detec-
tion system operating properly, be sure to
observe the following:
. Always keep the sensor area on the
front of the vehicle and windshield
clean.
. Do not strike or damage the areas
around the sensors (ex. bumper, wind-
shield).
. Do not cover or attach stickers or
similar objects on the front of the
vehicle near the sensor area. This could cause failure or malfunction.
. Do not attach metallic objects near
the radar sensor area (brush guard,
etc.). This could cause failure or mal-
function.
. Do not place reflective materials, such
as white paper or a mirror, on the
instrument panel. The reflection of
sunlight may adversely affect the
camera unit’s detection capability.
. Do not alter, remove or paint the front
of the vehicle near the sensor area.
