Ultrasonic misacceleration Mitigation System (UMS)*
6-112 Starting and driving

E00643500050
The detection areas of the front and rear sen-
sors are limited. Moreover, the sensors are
unable to detect low or thin objects or objects
near the rear bumper. Make sure to check the
surroundings as you operate the vehicle in a
safe manner.
E00643600080
There are the sensors (A) on each of 4 places
of the front bumper and the rear bumper.
• When the system judges driver’s steering or
gear shifting actions as evasive actions to
avoid collision.
• For a short period after the system judges
the repeated depression of the accelerator
pedal at a few seconds interval as a release
operation.
• When the vehicle body is extremely
inclined by carrying heavy loads or
improper adjustment of the tyre pressure.
• When the driving is unstable due to an acci-
dent or trouble.
• The system receives ultrasonic noise from
other sources (the horns of other vehicles,
motorcycle engines, brakes, radios, pouring
rain, splashing water, snow traction device
(tyre chains), etc.).
• When the obstacle is not horizontal to the
ground or not perpendicular to the vehicle
traveling direction.
 The Ultrasonic misacceleration Mitigation
System operation can be cancelled when the
system judges the handle operation as eva-
sive actions or when the obstacle moves out
of the detectable area of the sensor.

The Ultrasonic misacceleration Mitigation
System may be triggerd operate in the fol-
lowing situations.
• When the surrounding vehicle or oncoming
vehicle drives blowing up the water, snow
or sand on the road.
• When the rain, snow, water or dirt adheres
to the sensor.
CAUTION
• When there are objects, steps or projections
on the road surface.
• When the parking gate or railway barrier is
raised imperfectly.
• When running the road, the gradient
changes suddenly.
• When passing through the mass of the
steam, fog.
• When passing close to the vehicle or an
obstacle.
• When passing through a vinyl curtain etc.
• When the surrounding area is overgrown
with weeds.
• When leaving from a parallel parking.
• The system receives ultrasonic noise from
other sources (the horns of other vehicles,
motorcycle engines, brakes, radios, pouring
rain, splashing water, snow traction device
(tyre chains), etc.).

Turn off the system by pressing the Forward
Collision Mitigation System (FCM) and
Ultrasonic misacceleration Mitigation Sys-
tem (UMS) ON/OFF switch beforehand
when the vehicle is placed in any of the fol-
lowing situations as the system can operate
unexpectedly.
• When using an automatic car wash.
• When returning the fallen wheel in a ditch
or escaping from mud.
• When using a vehicle elevator or a multi-
storey car park.
CAUTION
• Do not modify the suspension of your vehi-
cle.
• When your vehicle’s wheels are driven by
the engine on a lift.
• When your vehicle is towed or your vehicle
tows another vehicle.
• When your vehicle is carried on a truck.
• When enjoying sports driving on a circuit.
• When your vehicle is on a chassis
dynamometer or free rollers.
• When the tyre pressure is not proper.
• When tyre chains are attached.
