If the message (4) does not disappear,

the ignition switch to “LOCK” position or
the ignition mode to “LOCK” (OFF) by
pressing the engine switch.
2) Clean the sensor cover with a soft
cloth.
3) Change the ignition switch to “ON”
position or the ignition mode to “ON” by
pressing the engine switch.
4) Check that the message (4) appears for
about 3 seconds and then disappears.
• If you clean the sensor cover and drive
the vehicle, but the message (4) appears

for further assistance.
NOTE:
In the following situations, the radar brake
support system warning light (3) may come
on, the message (4) may appear and the
radar brake support system may be deacti-
vated automatically, even if there is no dirt
on the sensor cover.
• In a tunnel
• A road where there are concrete walls
on both sides
• A road where there are metal fences on
one side
• Around overpasses or grade separated
crossings
• When there is bad weather such as
heavy rain or snow
• A road where there are puddles
In these situations, the radar brake support
system is stop functioning temporarily,
because millimeter-waves emanating from
the radar sensor cause diffused reflection
and a position of the vehicle in front of you
cannot be detected correctly.
If you drive the vehicle for about 2 minutes
after the above situations have improved,
these indicator and message will turn off
and the radar brake support system will
turn back on.
