CAMRY_HV_U (OM33C35U)
■ Obstacles not detected
The sensor cannot detect plastic obstacles such as traffic cones. There may
also be occasions when the sensor cannot detect pedestrians, animals, bicy-
cles, motorcycles, trees, or snowdrifts.
■ Situations in which the pre-collision system does not function properly
The system may not function effectively in situations such as the following:
● On roads with sharp bends or uneven surfaces
● If a vehicle suddenly moves in front of your vehicle, such as at an intersec-
tion
● If a vehicle suddenly cuts in front of your vehicle, such as when overtaking
● In inclement weather such as heavy rain, fog, snow or sand storms
● When your vehicle is skidding with the VSC system off
● When an extreme change in vehicle height occurs
● When the radar sensor moves off position due to its surrounding area being
subjected to a strong impact
● Due to greatly turning the wheel when an obstacle suddenly appears ahead
■ Automatic cancelation of the pre-collision system
When a malfunction occurs due to sensor contamination, etc. that results in
the sensors being unable to detect obstacles, the pre-collision system will be
automatically disabled. In this case, the system will not activate even if there
is a collision possibility.
■ When there is a malfunction in the system, or if the system is tempo-
rarily unavailable
The PCS warning light flashes and a warning message is shown on the multi-
information display. If a warning message is shown on the multi-information
display, read the message and follow the instructions. (→P. 447, 460)
■ When the TRAC and VSC are turned off
● When the TRAC and VSC operations are turned off (→P. 220), the pre-colli-
sion brake assist and pre-collision braking are also turned off. However, the
alert function operates.
● The PCS warning light turns on and a warning message is shown on the
multi-information display. (→P. 447, 464)
