CAUTION
The driver should always exercise great caution during vehicle operation even though there is no warning message or warning alarm.
WARNING
The FCA system is a supplemental system and cannot completely stop the vehicle in all situations and avoid all collisions. It is the responsibility of the driver to drive safely and control the vehicle.
WARNING
The FCA system assesses the risk of a collision by monitoring several variables, such as the distance to the vehicle ahead, the speed of the vehicle ahead, and the driver's operation of the vehicle.
Certain conditions such as inclement weather and road conditions may affect the operation of the FCA system.
WARNING
Never deliberately drive dangerously to activate the system as such conduct increases the risk of an accident.
The FCA system produces warning messages, warning alarms, and emergency braking based on the risk of a frontal collision, such as when a vehicle ahead suddenly brakes.
By detecting the vehicle or pedestrian ahead of the vehicle, the sensor helps to operate the Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist when the vehicle is at risk of a collision.
