The FCA is only a supplemen-
tal system for the driver’s con-
venience.
The driver is
responsible for controlling the
vehicle operation. Do not
solely depend on the FCA
system. Rather, maintain a
safe braking distance, and, if
necessary, depress the brake
pedal to reduce the driving
speed.
•
In certain instances and
under certain driving condi-
tions, the FCA system may
activate prematurely. This ini-
tial warning message appears
on the LCD display with a
warning chime.
Also, in certain instances the
front radar sensor may not
detect the vehicle ahead. The
FCA system may not activate
and the warning message will
not be displayed.

WARNING
(Continued)
•
If there is a malfunction with
the FCA system, the forward
Collision-avoidance Assist
(FCA) is not applied even
though the braking system is
operating normally.
•
If the vehicle in front stops
suddenly, you may have less
control of the brake system.
Therefore, always keep a safe
distance between your vehicle
and the vehicle in front of you.
•
The FCA system may activate
during braking and the vehi-
cle may stop suddenly shift-
ing loose objects toward the
passengers.
Always keep
loose objects secured.
•
The FCA system may not acti-
vate if the driver applies the
brake pedal to avoid a colli-
sion.
•
The brake control may be
insufficient, possibly causing
a collision, if a vehicle in front
abruptly stops. Always pay
extreme caution.
