WARNING
l
This system may not correctly detect the
actual situation depending on the type of
vehicle in front and its conditions, the
weather conditions, and the road condi-
tions.
Additionally, the system may be unable to
decelerate sufficiently if the vehicle in
front applies the brakes suddenly or an-
other vehicle cuts into your path, so your
vehicle approaches the front vehicle.
Improper usage of this system or loss of
attention to the front by the over-rely on
the ACC, may result in a serious accident.
CAUTION
l In the following situations, the system may
become transiently unable to detect a vehicle
in front or triggers its control and alarm
functions by detecting something other than
a vehicle in front.
CAUTION
• When driving in curved sections of road
including their entrance/outlet or running
beside a closed lane in a traffic work or
similar zone.
• When your vehicle position in a lane is in-
stable, is frequently steered to right and
left, or running unstably due to a traffic
accident, trouble with some vehicles, etc.
• When driving on the road that the vehicle
in front runs in offset position from your
vehicle.
l Never use the ACC in any of the following
situations. Failure to follow this instruction
could lead to an accident.
• On roads with heavy traffic or roads in-
cluding many windings or steep curves.
