The Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist (FCA) system is designed to
help detect and monitor the vehicle
ahead in the roadway through radar
signals and camera recognition to
warn the driver that a collision is
imminent, and if necessary, apply
emergency braking.
The FCA system detects the vehicle
ahead in the roadway.
System setting and activation
System setting
• The driver can activate the FCA by
placing the ignition switch to the
ON position and by selecting:
"User Settings
→
Driver assistance
→
Forward safety"
- If you select "Active assist", the
FCA system activates. The FCA
produces warning messages and
warning alarms in accordance
with the collision risk levels. Also,
it controls the brakes in accor-
dance with the collision risk lev-
els.
- If you select "Warning only", the
FCA system activates and pro-
duces only warning alarms in
accordance with the collision risk
levels. You should control the
brake directly because the FCA
system do not control the brake.
- If you select "Off", the FCA sys-
tem deactivates,

(FRONT RADAR + FRONT CAMERA) ((IF EQUIPPED)
Take the following precautions
when using the Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist
(FCA) system:
•
This system is only a supple-
mental system and it is not
intended to,
nor does it
replace the need for extreme
care and attention of the driv-
er. The sensing range and
objects detectable by the sen-
sors are limited. Pay attention
to the road conditions at all
times.
•
NEVER drive too fast in accor-
dance with the road condi-
tions or while cornering.
•
Always drive cautiously to
prevent unexpected and sud-
den situations from occur-
ring. FCA does not stop the
vehicle completely and is not
a collision avoidance system.
