CAUTION
l
Under certain conditions, the audible alarm
may not work at all or may be scarcely audi-
ble. Do not overly rely on the system; if your
vehicle is in danger of collision, take all nec-
essary collision-evading actions, such as de-
pressing the brake pedal strongly regardless
of whether the system is activated or not.
FCM brake prefill function
If the system judges that there is a risk of
your vehicle colliding with a vehicle or a pe-
destrian in front, this function prefills the
brake line with additional brake fluid to make
the brakes more responsive to your brake
pedal operation.
The FCM brake prefill function operates at
the following vehicle speed:
Type 1
l Against a vehicle: Approximately 5 to
80 km/h (3 to 50 mph).
l Against a pedestrian: Approximately 5
to 65 km/h (3 to 40 mph).
Type 2
l Against a vehicle: Approximately 5 to
180 km/h (3 to 110 mph).
l Against a pedestrian: Approximately 5
to 65 km/h (3 to 40 mph).
FCM brake assist function
If the system judges that there is a risk of
your vehicle colliding with a vehicle or a pe-
destrian in front, this function deploys the
brake assist sooner than the brake assist oper-
ation. The FCM brake assist function oper-
ates at the following vehicle speed:
Type 1
l
Against a vehicle: Approximately 15 to
80 km/h (10 to 50 mph).
l Against a pedestrian: Approximately 15
to 65 km/h (10 to 40 mph).
Type 2
l
Against a vehicle: Approximately 15 to
180 km/h (10 to 110 mph).
l Against a pedestrian: Approximately 15
to 65 km/h (10 to 40 mph).
CAUTION
l The brake assist function may not be trig-
gered when the brake pedal is operated in
certain ways.
Do not overly rely on the system; if your ve-
hicle is in danger of collision, take all neces-
sary collision-evading actions, such as de-
pressing the brake pedal strongly regardless
of whether the system is activated or not.
FCM braking function
If the system judges that there is a high risk
of your vehicle colliding with a vehicle or a
pedestrian in front, the system applies the
brakes moderately to encourage you to apply
the brakes.
If the system judges that a collision is un-
avoidable, it initiates emergency braking con-
trol to mitigate collision-caused damages or,
if the situation permits, to avoid a collision.
While the FCM braking control is triggered,
you are warned of the hazard with a
“BRAKE!” message and audible alarms like
with the forward collision warning function.
Once the FCM braking has activated, the fol-
lowing message will appear on the informa-
tion screen of the multi-information display.
The FCM braking function operates at the
following vehicle speed:
Type 1
l Against a vehicle: Approximately 5 to
80 km/h (3 to 50 mph).
l Against a pedestrian: Approximately 5
to 65 km/h (3 to 40 mph).
