Fuel tank opening for unleaded

gasoline

To help prevent incorrect fueling, your

vehicle has a fuel tank opening that only

accommodates the special nozzle on
unleaded fuel pumps.

Opening the fuel tank

cap

Perform the following steps to
open the fuel tank cap:

Before refueling the vehicle

WARNING

■

When refueling the vehicle

Observe the following precautions
while refueling the vehicle. Failure to

do so may result in death or serious

injury.

●

After exiting the vehicle and before

opening the fuel door, touch an
unpainted metal surface to dis-

charge any static electricity. It is

important to discharge static elec-
tricity before refueling because

sparks resulting from static electric-

ity can cause fuel vapors to ignite
while refueling.

●

Always hold the grips on the fuel

tank cap and turn it slowly to

remove it.
A whooshing sound may be heard

when the fuel tank cap is loosened.

Wait until the sound cannot be
heard before fully removing the

cap. In hot weather, pressurized

fuel may spray out the filler neck
and cause injury.

●

Do not allow anyone that has not
discharged static electricity from

their body to come close to an open

fuel tank.

●

Do not inhale vaporized fuel.

Fuel contains substances that are
harmful if inhaled.

●

Do not smoke while refueling the
vehicle.

Doing so may cause the fuel to

ignite and cause a fire.

●

Do not return to the vehicle or touch

any person or object that is stati-
cally charged.

This may cause static electricity to

build up, resulting in a possible igni-
tion hazard.

■

When refueling

Observe the following precautions to

prevent fuel overflowing from the fuel

tank:

●

Securely insert the fuel nozzle into

the fuel filler neck.

●

Stop filling the tank after the fuel

nozzle automatically clicks off.

●

Do not top off the fuel tank.

211

4-4. Refueling

riv

ing

Pull up the opener to open the
fuel filler door.

Turn the fuel tank cap slowly
and remove it, then hang it on
the back of the fuel filler door.

After refueling, turn the fuel tank
cap until you hear a click. Once the
cap is released, it will turn slightly in
the opposite direction.

NOTICE

■

Refueling

Do not spill fuel during refueling.
Doing so may damage the vehicle,

such as causing the emission control

system to operate abnormally or dam-
aging fuel system components or the

vehicle’s painted surface.

PCS (Pre-Collision System)

The pre-collision system uses a radar sensor and front camera to
detect objects (



P.217) in front of the vehicle. When the system

determines that the possibility of a frontal collision with an object is
high, a warning operates to urge the driver to take evasive action
and the potential brake pressure is increased to help the driver
avoid the collision. If the system determines that the possibility of a
frontal collision with an object is extremely high, the brakes are
automatically applied to help avoid the collision or help reduce the
impact of the collision.

The pre-collision system can be disabled/enabled and the warning timing
can be changed. (

Pre-collision warning

When the system determines that
the possibility of a frontal collision is
high, a buzzer will sound and a
warning message will be displayed
on the multi-information display to
urge the driver to take evasive
action.

“BRAKE!”

■

Pre-collision brake assist

When the system determines that
the possibility of a frontal collision is
high, the system applies greater
braking force in relation to how
strongly the brake pedal is
depressed.

■

Pre-collision braking

If the system determines that the
possibility of a frontal collision is
extremely high, the brakes are
automatically applied to help avoid
the collision or reduce the impact of
the collision.

■

Emergency steering assist (for
region A)

If the system determines that the

possibility of a collision with a
pedestrian is high and that there is
sufficient space for the vehicle to be
steered into within its lane, and the
driver has begun evasive maneuver
or steering, emergency steering
assist will assist the steering move-
ments to help enhance the vehicle
stability and for lane departure pre-
vention. During operation, the indi-
cator will illuminate in green.

■

Intersection right/left turn
assistance (for region A)

If the system determines that there
is a high possibility of a collision in
the following situations, it will assist
with Pre-collision warning and, if
necessary Pre-collision braking.
Depending on the configuration of
the intersection, it may not be pos-
sible to support.

WARNING

■

Limitations of the pre-collision

system

●

The driver is solely responsible for

safe driving. Always drive safely,

taking care to observe your sur-
roundings.

Do not use the pre-collision system

instead of normal braking opera-
tions under any circumstances.

This system will not prevent colli-

sions or lessen collision damage or
injury in every situation. Do not

overly rely on this system. Failure to

do so may lead to an accident,
resulting in death or serious injury.

●

Although this system is designed to

help avoid a collision or help reduce

the impact of the collision, its effec-
tiveness may change according to

various conditions, therefore the

system may not always be able to
achieve the same level of perfor-

mance.

Read the following conditions care-
fully. Do not overly rely on this sys-

tem and always drive carefully.

• Conditions under which the system

may operate even if there is no pos-

sibility of a collision:



P.224

• Conditions under which the system

may not operate properly:



P.225

●

Do not attempt to test the operation

of the pre-collision system yourself.
Depending on the objects used for

testing (dummies, cardboard

objects imitating detectable objects,
etc.), the system may not operate

properly, possibly leading to an

accident.

■

Pre-collision braking

●

When the pre-collision braking
function is operating, a large

amount of braking force will be

applied.

●

If the vehicle is stopped by the

operation of the pre-collision brak-
ing function, the pre-collision brak-

ing function operation will be

canceled after approximately 2 sec-
onds. Depress the brake pedal as

necessary.

●

The pre-collision braking function

may not operate if certain opera-

tions are performed by the driver. If
the accelerator pedal is being

depressed strongly or the steering

wheel is being turned, the system
may determine that the driver is tak-

ing evasive action and possibly pre-

vent the pre-collision braking
function from operating.

220

4-5. Using the driving support systems

WARNING

●

In some situations, while the pre-

collision braking function is operat-
ing, operation of the function may

be canceled if the accelerator pedal

is depressed strongly or the steer-
ing wheel is turned and the system

determines that the driver is taking

evasive action.

●

If the brake pedal is being

depressed, the system may deter-
mine that the driver is taking eva-

sive action and possibly delay the

operation timing of the pre-collision
braking function.

■

Emergency steering assist (for
region A)

●

As emergency steering assist oper-

ation will be canceled when the sys-
tem determines that lane departure

prevention function has been com-

pleted.

●

Emergency steering assist may not

operate or may be cancel in the fol-
lowing cases as the system may

determine the driver is taking

actions.

• If the accelerator pedal is being

depressed strongly, the steering
wheel is being operated sharply,

the brake pedal is being depressed

or the turn signal lever is being
operated. In this case, the system

may determine that the driver is tak-

ing evasive action and the emer-
gency steering assist may not

operate.

• In some situations, while the emer-

gency steering assist is operating,

operation of the function may be
canceled if the accelerator pedal is

depressed strongly, the steering

wheel is operated sharply or the
brake pedal is being depressed and

the system determines that the

driver is taking evasive action.

• When the emergency steering

assist is operating, if the steering

wheel is held firmly or is operated in
the opposite direction to that which

the system is generating torque, the

function may be canceled.

■

When to disable the pre-colli-

sion system

In the following situations, disable the

system, as it may not operate prop-

erly, possibly leading to an accident
resulting in death or serious injury:

●

When the vehicle is being towed

●

When your vehicle is towing

another vehicle

●

When transporting the vehicle via

truck, boat, train or similar means of
transportation

●

When the vehicle is raised on a lift
with the engine running and the

tires are allowed to rotate freely

●

When inspecting the vehicle using

a drum tester such as a chassis

dynamometer or speedometer tes-
ter, or when using an on vehicle

wheel balancer

●

When a strong impact is applied to

the front bumper or front grille, due

to an accident or other reasons

●

If the vehicle cannot be driven in a

stable manner, such as when the
vehicle has been in an accident or

is malfunctioning

●

When the vehicle is driven in a

sporty manner or off-road

●

When the tires are not properly

inflated

●

When the tires are very worn

●

When tires of a size other than
specified are installed
