dicator light flashes. The side indicator
light continues to flash until the detected
vehicle leaves the detection zone.
If the I-BSI system is ON and your vehicle
approaches a lane marker while another
vehicle is in the detection zone, the
system chimes (three times) and the side
indicator light flashes. Then the I-BSI
system slightly applies the brakes to help
return the vehicle back to the center of
the driving lane. The I-BSI system oper-
ates regardless of turn signal usage.
NOTE:
.I-BSI warning and system applica-
tion will only be activated if the side
indicator light is already illuminated
when your vehicle approaches a
lane marker. If another vehicle
comes into the detection zone after
your vehicle has crossed a lane
marker, no I-BSI warning or system
application will be activated. (See “I-
BSI driving situations” (P.5-51).)
. The I-BSI system is typically acti-
vated earlier than the Intelligent
Lane Intervention (I-LI) system when
your vehicle is approaching a lane
marker.

I-BI SYSTEM OPERATION
When the shift lever is in the R (Reverse)
position and the vehicle speed is less than
approximately 5 MPH (8 km/h), the I-BI
system operates.
If the radar detects a vehicle approaching
from the side or the sonar detects close
stationary objects behind the vehicle, the
system gives visual and audible warnings.
If the driver does not apply the brakes, the
system automatically applies the brake
for a moment when the vehicle is moving
backwards. After the automatic brake
application, the driver must depress the
brake pedal to maintain brake pressure. If
the driver’s foot is on the accelerator

If an approaching vehicle or close object
behind the vehicle is detected when your
vehicle is backing up, a red frame
will
appear in the touch screen display and
the system will chime three times. Then,
the brakes will be applied momentarily.
After the automatic brake application, the
driver must depress the brake pedal to
maintain brake pressure.
If the driver’s foot is on the accelerator
pedal, the system moves the accelerator
pedal upward before the braking is ap-
plied. However, if you continue to accel-
erate, the system will not engage the
brakes.
The I-BI system does not operate if the object is very close to the bumper.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the ICC
system could result in serious injury
or death.
.ICC is not a collision avoidance or
warning device. For highway use
only and it is not intended for
congested areas or city driving.
Failure to apply the brakes could
result in an accident.
. Always observe posted speed
limits and do not set the speed
over them.
. Always drive carefully and atten-
tively when using either cruise
control mode. Read and under-
stand the Owner’s Manual thor-
oughly before using the cruise
control. 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
cruise control except in appropri-
ate road and traffic conditions.
. In the conventional (fixed speed)
cruise control mode, a warning
chime will not sound to warn you if you are too close to the vehicle
ahead. Pay special attention to
the distance between your vehi-
cle and the vehicle ahead of you
or a collision could occur.
The ICC system maintains a selected
distance from the vehicle in front of you
within the speed range of 0 to 90 MPH (0
to 144 km/h) up to the set speed. The set
speed can be selected by the driver
between 20 to 90 MPH (30 to 144 km/h).
The vehicle travels at a set speed when
the road ahead is clear.
The ICC system can be set to one of two
cruise control modes.
. Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control
mode:
For maintaining a selected distance
between your vehicle and the vehicle
in front of you up to the preset speed.
. Conventional (fixed speed) cruise con-
trol mode:
For cruising at a preset speed.

VEHICLE-TO-VEHICLE DISTANCE
CONTROL MODE
In the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control
mode, the ICC system automatically
maintains a selected distance from the
vehicle traveling in front of you according
to that vehicle’s speed (up to the set
speed), or at the set speed when the road
ahead is clear.
WAF0724X
The system is intended to enhance the
operation of the vehicle when following a
vehicle traveling in the same lane and
direction.
If the radar sensor
detects a slower
moving vehicle ahead, the system will
reduce the vehicle speed so that your
vehicle follows the vehicle in front at the
selected distance.
The system automatically controls the
throttle and applies the brakes (up to
approximately 40% of vehicle braking
power) if necessary.
The detection range of the sensor is
approximately 650 ft (200 m) ahead.

System set display with vehicle aheadSystem set display without vehicle ahead
The driver sets the desired vehicle speed
based on the road conditions. The ICC
system maintains the set vehicle speed,
similar to standard cruise control, as long
as no vehicle is detected in the lane
ahead.
The ICC system displays the set speed.
Vehicle detected ahead:
When a vehicle is detected in the lane
ahead, the ICC system decelerates the
vehicle by controlling the throttle and
applying the brakes to match the speed
of a slower vehicle ahead. The system
then controls the vehicle speed based on the speed of the vehicle ahead to main-
tain the driver selected distance.
NOTE:
.
The stoplights of the vehicle come
on when braking is performed by
the ICC system.
. When the brake operates, a noise
may be heard and/or vibration may
be felt. This is not a malfunction.
When a vehicle ahead is detected, the
vehicle ahead detection indicator comes
on. The ICC system will also display the
set speed and selected distance.

Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control
mode limitations
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for the ICC system. Failure to
operate the vehicle in accordance
with these system limitations could
result in serious injury or death.
.The system is primarily intended
for use on straight, dry, open
roads with light traffic. It is not
advisable to use the system in
city traffic or congested areas.
. This system will not adapt auto-
matically to road conditions. This
system should be used in evenly
flowing traffic. Do not use the
system on roads with sharp
curves, or on icy roads, in heavy
rain or in fog.
. As there is a performance limit to
the distance control function,
never rely solely on the ICC sys-
tem. This system does not correct
careless, inattentive or absent-
minded driving, or overcome
poor visibility in rain, fog, or other
bad weather. Decelerate the ve-
hicle speed by depressing the brake pedal, depending on the
distance to the vehicle ahead
and the surrounding circum-
stances in order to maintain a
safe distance between vehicles.
. If the vehicle ahead comes to a
stop, the vehicle decelerates to a
standstill within the limitations of
the system. The system will can-
cel once it judges that the vehicle
has come to a standstill and
sound a warning chime. To pre-
vent the vehicle from moving, the
driver must depress the brake
pedal.
. Always pay attention to the op-
eration of the vehicle and be
ready to manually control the
proper following distance. The
vehicle-to-vehicle distance con-
trol mode of the ICC system may
not be able to maintain the se-
lected distance between vehicles
(following distance) or selected
vehicle speed under some cir-
cumstances.
. The system may not detect the
vehicle in front of you in certain
road or weather conditions. To
avoid accidents, never use the ICC
system under the following con-
ditions: — On roads where the traffic is
heavy or there are sharp
curves
— On slippery road surfaces such as on ice or snow, etc.
— During bad weather (rain, fog, snow, etc.)
— When rain, snow or dirt adhere to the system sensor
— On steep downhill roads (the vehicle may go beyond the set
vehicle speed and frequent
braking may result in over-
heating the brakes)
— On repeated uphill and down- hill roads
— When traffic conditions make it difficult to keep a proper
distance between vehicles be-
cause of frequent accelera-
tion or deceleration
. Do not use the ICC system if you
are towing a trailer. The system
may not detect a vehicle ahead.
. In some road or traffic conditions,
a vehicle or object can unexpect-
edly come into the sensor detec-
tion zone and cause automatic
braking. You may need to control

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.
