Prerequisite for Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist activation

Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist gets ready to be activated, when the Active Assist or Warning Only under the Forward Safety is selected on the LCD display, and when the following prerequisites are satisfied.
  • ESC is activated.

  • The driving speed is over 5 mph (8 km/h). (However, Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist is activated within certain driving speed.)

  • The function detects a vehicle in front. (However, Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist does not activate according to conditions in front and vehicle systems, but it notices only certain warnings.)

  • Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist may not be activated or may only sound a warning alarm depending on the driving or vehicle conditions.

  • If the 'Warning Only' under the Forward Safety is selected, Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist produces only warning alarms in accordance with the collision risk levels.

  • Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist automatically activates upon placing the ignition switch or ENGINE START/STOP button to the ON position. The driver can deactivate Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist by canceling the function setting on the LCD display. To avoid driver distractions, do not attempt to set or cancel Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist while driving the vehicle.

  • Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist automatically deactivates upon canceling the ESC. When the ESC is canceled, Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist cannot be activated on the LCD display.

    In this situation, Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist warning light will illuminate, but it does not indicate a malfunction of the function.

  • Set or cancel Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with controlling switches on steering wheel after stopping the vehicle in a safe place for your safety.
