Pre-Collision Braking System

Pre-Collision Braking System
When there is the risk of a rear-end collision with an obstacle in front, the EyeSight system
helps to prevent or minimize a collision by warning the driver. If the driver still does not take
evasive action to avoid a collision, the brakes can be automatically applied just before the
collision in order to reduce impact damage, or if possible, prevent the collision. If the driver
takes evasive action to avoid a collision, Pre-Collision Braking Assist will operate in order to
help the driver to prevent or minimize the collision.
This system can be effective not only with direct rear-end collisions, but also with offset
rear-end collisions. This function can be activated when the select lever is in the “D”, “M” or
“N” position.

WARNING
• Never use Pre-Collision Braking System and Pre-Collision Braking Assist to
stop your car or avoid a collision under ordinary conditions. These functions
cannot prevent collisions under all conditions. If the driver relies only on Pre-
Collision Braking System for Brake operation, collisions may occur.
• When a warning is activated, pay attention to the front of the vehicle and its
surroundings, and operate the brake pedal and/or take other actions if neces-
sary.
• The EyeSight Pre-Collision Braking System is primarily designed to prevent
rear-end collisions with other vehicles when possible or to minimize damage
and injuries in the event of a collision. In addition to other vehicles, things
such as motorbikes, bicycles and pedestrians can also be treated as obsta-
cles. However, there may be cases when detection is not possible depending
on a variety of conditions

. For example, when a vehicle is viewed from the
side, oncoming vehicle, vehicles approaching in reverse, small animals or
children, or walls or doors are not likely to be detected.
• Pre-Collision Braking System will operate at the point when it determines that
a collision cannot be avoided and is designed to apply strong braking force
just before a collision. The result of this varies depending on a variety of con-
ditions
*2
. Because of this, performance of this function will not always be the
same.
• When Pre-Collision Braking System is activated, it will continue to operate
even if the accelerator pedal is partially depressed. However, it will be can-
celed if the accelerator pedal is suddenly or fully depressed.
• If the driver depresses the brake pedal or turns the steering wheel, the system
may determine that this constitutes evasive action by the driver, and the auto-
matic braking control may not activate in order to allow the driver full control.
