Forward Collision
Mitigation system (FCM)*

E00635101315

The  Forward  Collision  Mitigation  System
(FCM)  uses  a  sensor  (A)  to  determine  the
distance and relative speed to a vehicle and a
pedestrian in front. When your vehicle is ap-
proaching  a  vehicle  or  a  pedestrian  straight-
ahead in your path and the FCM judges that
there  is  the  risk  of  a  collision,  the  system
gives  audible  and  visual  warnings  (forward
collision  warning  function),  increases  the
brake fluid pressure (FCM brake prefill func-
tion),  and  also  provides  braking  force  assis-
tance  when  you  depress  the  brake  pedal
(FCM  brake  assist  function)  to  avoid  frontal
collision.

When the risk of collision increases more, the
system causes the brakes to work moderately
to encourage you to apply brakes. If the sys-
tem judges that a potential collision is immi-
nent,  it  initiates  emergency  braking  to  miti-
gate  collision-caused  damages  or  to  avoid
possible collision (FCM braking function).
Stop  lamps  are  illuminated  during  automatic
braking.

WARNING

A driver is responsible for driving safely.
The  FCM  is  the  system  to  mitigate  colli-
sion-  caused  damages  or  to  avoid  colli-
sions as much as possible.
The system is not intended to compensate
for  driver’s  loss  of  attention  to  the  front
during driving due to distraction or care-
lessness or supplement a drop in visibility
due to the rain and fog.
It  is  never  a  substitute  for  your  safe  and
careful driving. Always be ready to apply
the brakes manually.

The FCM works to avoid frontal collisions
as  much  as  possible.  However,  the  effect
of its operation varies depending on situa-
tions and conditions, such as driving con-
ditions, road conditions, and steering, ac-
celeration and braking operations, so that
the  performance  the  function  can  deliver
is not always the same.
If  your  vehicle  is  in  danger  of  collision,
take  all  necessary  collision-evading  ac-
tions,  such  as  depressing  the  brake  pedal
strongly regardless of whether the system
is activated or not.

Do not try to confirm the operation of the
FCM. In certain situations, this can cause
an accident resulting in serious injury or
death.

Forward collision warning

function

E00635401190

If  the  system  judges  that  there  is  a  risk  of
your vehicle colliding with a vehicle or a pe-
destrian  in  front,  this  function  warns  you  of
the  potential  hazard  with  visual  and  audible
alarms.
When  this  function  is  triggered,  a  buzzer
sounds and, at the same time, the

indica-

tor starts flashing.

The forward collision warning function oper-
ates at the following vehicle speed:

Against a vehicle: Approximately 15
km/h to 140 km/h.

Against a pedestrian: Approximately 7
km/h to 65 km/h.

CAUTION

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

E00635201101

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:

Against a vehicle: Approximately
5 km/h to 80 km/h.

Against a pedestrian: Approximately
5 km/h to 65 km/h.

FCM brake assist function

E00635301128

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 operates at
the following vehicle speed:

Against a vehicle: Approximately
15 km/h to 80 km/h.

Against a pedestrian: Approximately
15 km/h to 65 km/h.

CAUTION

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

E00635501553

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.
When the emergency braking control is trig-
gered, you are warned of the hazard by a vis-
ual alarm.

Forward Collision Mitigation system (FCM)*

OGAE18E1

Starting and driving

Once the emergency braking has worked, you
are alerted to this by a message on the infor-
mation screen of the multi-information dis-
play.

The FCM braking function operates at the
following vehicle speed:

Against a vehicle: Approximately
5 km/h to 80 km/h

Against a pedestrian: Approximately
5 km/h to 65 km/h

CAUTION

Do not use the FCM as a normal braking.

After your vehicle has stopped following the
activation of the FCM, automatic braking is
released. As the vehicle will then start creep-
ing, be sure to depress the brake pedal to
hold the vehicle stationary.

When applying the brake during the auto-
matic braking condition the pedal will feel
firm.
This is not abnormal.
You can apply more pressure to the pedal to
assist in braking.

In the following situations, the system pro-
vides neither control nor alarming.

CAUTION

LDW has its performance limitations. Do
not over-rely on the system.

LDW is not designed to lessen risks associ-
ated with not looking ahead carefully (atten-
tion drawn to something on the side, absent-
mindedness, etc.) or poor visibility caused
by bad weather etc. Keep steering your vehi-
cle correctly and drive safely.

The system may not operate correctly in the
following conditions. If required, set the
LDW switch to “OFF.”

•

When driving on a road whose lane mark-
ings (white or yellow) are worn out or
smeared with dirt to an extent not recog-
nizable by the system.

•

When  lane  markings  are  vague,  typically
during  a  drive  in  the  rain,  snow,  fog  or
dark  area,  or  when  running  against  the
sun.

completely  removed  old  lane  markings,
shadows,  lingering  snow,  truck-like  pud-
dles  mistakable  for  lane  markings  (espe-
cially  after  the  rain  when  road  surface  is
reflecting  light)  or  similar  confusing  fac-
tors.

•

When running in a lane other than the
cruising lane and passing lane.

•

When running beside a closed lane sec-
tion or in a provisional lane in a traffic
work zone.

•

When running in an extremely narrow
lane.

•

When  the  following  distance  between
your  vehicle  and  a  vehicle  in  front  be-
comes  extremely  reduced  (especially
when a marking is hidden by a vehicle in
front this is running too close to the mark-
ing).

•

When entering a junction or other point of
road where lanes are laid out complicated-
ly.

•

When passing a road section where the
number of lanes increases/decreases or
multiple lanes are crossing each other.

•

When the lane is marked by double or
otherwise special lines.

•

When driving on a winding or rough road.

light shining from the direction opposite
to the running direction.

•

Vehicle largely lurches when it is running
over steps or other irregularities of the
road surface.

•

When the headlamp illumination is inade-
quate because of contaminated or deterio-
rated lenses or improperly aimed head-
lamps.

•

When the vehicle is leaning much to one
side due to heavy luggage on it or improp-
erly adjusted tyre pressures.

•

When oncoming vehicles’ headlamps
shine the sensor.

•

When  the  vehicle  is  equipped  with  non-
standard  tyres  (including  excessively
worn  tyres  and  temporary  spare  tyre),
uses snow traction device (tyre chains), or
has  non-specified  components  such  as  a
modified suspension.

•

When the windscreen is covered with wa-
ter droplets, snow, dust, etc.

Follow the instructions given below to keep
your LDW in good operating conditions.

Tyre pressure monitoring
system (TPMS)*

E00637100279

The tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS)
uses tyre inflation pressure sensors (A) on the
wheels to monitor the tyre inflation pressures.
The system only indicates when a tyre is sig-
nificantly under-inflated.
The base tyre pressure can be set at desired
value by the driver with the reset function ex-
ecution. (The low pressure warning threshold
is set based on the reset.)
