Driving your vehicle

• If FCA detects a vehicle in front,
the system operates when your
vehicle speed is above 8 km/h (5
mph) and less than or equal to 180
km/h (110 mph). Maximum vehicle
speed may decrease depending
on the condition of the vehicle
ahead and surroundings.
• If FCA detects a pedestrian or
cyclist in front, the system operates
when your vehicle speed is
between 8 km/h (5 mph) or above
and under 70 km/h (45 mph).
Maximum vehicle speed may
decrease depending on the condi-
tion of the pedestrian or cyclist
ahead and surroundings.
• If you select 'Warning only' for the
system setting, the FCA system
activates and produces only warn-
ing alarms in accordance with the
collision risk levels. You should
control the brake directly because
the FCA system will not control the
brake.
Brake operation
• In an urgent situation, the braking
system enters into the ready status
for prompt reaction against the dri-
ver's depressing the brake pedal.
• The FCA provides additional brak-
ing power for optimum braking per-
formance, when the driver
depresses the brake pedal.
• The braking control is automatical-
ly deactivated, when the driver
sharply depresses the accelerator
pedal, or when the driver abruptly
operates the steering wheel.
• The FCA brake control is automat-
ically canceled, when risk factors
disappear.
• The driver should always use
extreme caution while operat-
ing the vehicle, whether or not
there is a warning message or
alarm from the FCA system.
• After the brake control is acti-
vated, the driver must immedi-
ately depress the brake pedal
and check the surroundings.
The brake activation by the
system lasts for about 2 sec-
onds.
• If any other warning sound
such as seat belt warning
chime is already generated,
the Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist (FCA) sys-
tem warning may not sound.
• Playing the vehicle audio sys-
tem at high volume may pre-
vent occupants from hearing
the system warning sounds.
