Driving your vehicle

- Changing lanes
Even though the vehicle in the next
lane enters into your lane, it may not
be recognized by the AEB, until it
enters the AEB sensing range.
Especially when the vehicle in the
next lane abruptly enters into your
lane, it is more likely not be recog-
nized. Always be attentive to driving
conditions.

When the stopped vehicle in front
gets out of the lane, it may not be
recognized by your AEB. Always be
attentive to driving conditions.

- Recognizing the vehicle
When the vehicle in front has heavy
loading extended rearward, or when
the vehicle in front has higher ground
clearance, it may induce a haz-
ardous situation.

Recognizing pedestrians

- The pedestrian is not fully captured

by the camera sensor, or the
pedestrian does not walk in the
upright position.

- The pedestrian moves very fast.
- The pedestrian abruptly appears in

front.

- The pedestrian wears clothes sim-

ilar in color to the background.

- Conditions outside are too bright or

too dark.

- The vehicle drives at night or in the

darkness.

- There is an item similar in shape a

person’s body structure.

- The pedestrian is small.
- The pedestrian has impaired

mobility.

- The pedestrian blends in with their

surroundings.

- Sensor recognition is limited by

rain, snow, fog, etc.

- There is a group of pedestrians.

✽

✽

NOTICE

The system may temporarily cancel
due to the strong electric waves.

• Pay great caution to the vehicle in

front, when it has heavy loading
extended rearward, or when it has
higher ground clearance.

• The sensor only detects pedestri-

an, not carts, bicycles, motorcy-
cles, luggage bags, or strollers.

WARNING -

Testing the
AEB

The AEB does not operate in
certain situations. Thus, never
test-operate the AEB against a
person or an object. It may
cause a severe injury or even
death.

WARNING -

AEB and
Towing

Cancel the AEB in the User
Settings on the LCD display,
before towing another vehicle.
While towing, the brake applica-
tion may adversely affect your
vehicle safety.

5 49

Driving your vehicle

The cruise control system allows you
to program the vehicle to maintain a
constant speed without depressing
the accelerator pedal.
This system is designed to function
above approximately 20 mph (30
km/h).
If the cruise control is left on,
(CRUISE indicator light in the instru-
ment cluster illuminated) the cruise
control can be switched on acciden-
tally. Keep the cruise control system
off (CRUISE indicator light OFF)
when the cruise control is not in use,
to avoid inadvertently setting a speed.

Use the cruise control system only
when traveling on open highways in
good weather.
Do not use the cruise control when
driving in heavy or varying traffic, or
on slippery (rainy, icy or snow-cov-
ered) or winding roads or over 6%
up-hill or down-hill roads.

✽

✽

NOTICE

• During normal cruise control oper-

ation, when the SET switch is acti-
vated or reactivated after applying
the brakes, the cruise control will
energize after approximately 3 sec-
onds. This delay is normal.

• To activate cruise control, depress

the brake pedal at least once after
turning the ignition switch to the
ON position or starting the engine.
This is to check if the brake switch
which is important part to cancel
cruise control is in normal condi-
tion.

CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM

WARNING

- Misuse of

Cruise Control

Do not use cruise control if the
traffic situation does not allow
you to drive safely at a constant
