WARNING
Do not overly rely on the Ultrasonic mis-
acceleration Mitigation System. It is never
a substitute for your safe and careful driv-
ing. Always be careful to operate the
accelerator pedal perceiving the environ-
mental conditions. Misoperation can lead
to a serious accident.
As the Ultrasonic misacceleration Mitiga-
tion System is not a function to keep the
stop condition of the vehicle, depress the
brake pedal according to the environmen-
tal condition.
WARNING
Depending on the situation, the system
does not operate even if the vehicle or the
obstacle in front and behind your vehicle
and this may cause the vehicle to start
suddenly and lead to a serious accident.
