Collision-Avoidance Assist (while departing)

The warning light on the outside rear view mirror (side view mirror), head-up display (if equipped), an audible warning and the steering wheel vibration will warn the driver of a collision. It assists in braking control to prevent a collision with a vehicle approaching from the blind spot area.

Warning message: Emergency braking

Collision-Avoidance Assist will be activated in the following conditions.

  • Your driving speed: Below 3 km/h (2 mph)

  • Speed of the vehicle in your blind spot area: Above 5 km/h (3 mph)

When the vehicle is stopped due to emergency braking, the warning message will appear on the cluster. For your safety, the driver should depress the brake pedal immediately and check the surroundings.

Warning message: Drive carefully

  • Brake control will end after the vehicle is stopped by emergency braking for approximately 2 seconds.

  • Even if there is a problem with Blind- Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist, the vehicle's basic braking performance will operate properly.

  • Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist may not operate in all situations, and even if it works, it may not be able to avoid collisions.

  • Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist may warn the driver late or may not warn the driver depending on the road and driving conditions.
