Collision Warning

  • To warn the driver of a collision, the "Collision Warning" warning message will appear on the cluster, an audible warning will sound.

  • If a vehicle or motorcyclist is detected in front, the function will operate when your vehicle speed is between about 10-200 km/h (6-124 mph).

  • If a pedestrian or cyclist is detected in front, the function will operate when your vehicle speed is between about 10-65 km/h (6-40 mph).

Emergency Braking

To warn the driver that emergency braking will be assisted, the "Emergency Braking" warning message will appear on the cluster, an audible warning will sound.

Emergency braking will operate under the following conditions.

  • Vehicle or motorcyclist:

    Driving vehicle

    Stopped vehicle

    Weak braking power

    About 10-200 km/h (6-124 mph)

    Strong braking power

    About 10-130 km/h (6-80 mph)

    About 10-85 km/h (6-53 mph)

  • Pedestrian or cyclist:

    The function will operate when your vehicle speed is between about 10-85 km/h (6-53 mph).

The function operation range may decrease due to the front traffic condition or the surroundings of the vehicle.

When driving at night, the motorcyclist recognition performance is degraded, so Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist may be temporarily limited or may not work.

Stopping vehicle and ending brake control

2C_FCABasicCollisionWarningInfo

  • When the vehicle is stopped due to emergency braking, the "Drive carefully" warning message will appear on the cluster.

    For your safety, the driver should depress the brake pedal immediately and check the surroundings.

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

The audible warning can be turned off while collision warning or emergency braking is operating by pressing the hazard warning flasher button.

Junction Turning function

Junction Turning function will warn and help control the vehicle depending on the collision risk level: 'Collision Warning', 'Emergency Braking' and 'Stopping vehicle and ending brake control'.

Collision Warning

2C_FCAJunctionTurningCollisionWarningInfo

  • To warn the driver of a collision, the "Collision Warning" warning message will appear on the cluster, an audible warning will sound.

  • The function will operate when your vehicle speed is between about 10-30 km/h (6-19 mph) and the oncoming vehicle speed is between about 30-70 km/h (19-44 mph), motorcyclist and cyclist speed is between about 15-70 km/h (9-44 mph).

Emergency Braking

2C_FCAJunctionTurningEmergencyBrakingInfo

  • To warn the driver that emergency braking will be assisted, the "Emergency Braking" warning message will appear on the cluster, an audible warning will sound.

  • In emergency braking situation, braking is assisted with strong braking power by the function to help prevent collision with the oncoming vehicle.

  • The function will operate when your vehicle speed is between about 10-30 km/h (6-19 mph) and the oncoming vehicle speed is between about 30-70 km/h (19-44 mph), motorcyclist and cyclist speed is between about 15-70 km/h (9-44 mph).

  • If the driver's seat is on the left side, Junction Turning function will operate only for oncoming vehicles when you turn left. If the driver's seat position is on the right side, the function will operate only for oncoming vehicles when you turn right.

  • When turning left (left-hand drive) or right (right-hand drive) at an intersection, braking is assisted to reduce or avoid collisions if there is a collision risk with a cyclist approaching at the speed of 15 to 20 km/h (9 to 12 mph) from the opposite side.

Stopping vehicle and ending brake control

2C_FCABasicCollisionWarningInfo

  • When the vehicle is stopped due to emergency braking, the "Drive carefully" warning message will appear on the cluster.

    For your safety, the driver should depress the brake pedal immediately and check the surroundings.

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

When a collision warning is being issued or emergency braking is being engaged, press the hazard warning flasher button to turn off the warning sound.

Direct-Oncoming function

Direct Oncoming function will warn and control the vehicle depending on the collision risk level: 'Collision Warning', 'Emergency Braking' and 'Stopping vehicle and ending brake control'.

Collision Warning

  • To warn the driver of a collision, Forward Safety warning light (O) blinking, the "Collision Warning" warning message will appear on the instrument cluster, an audible warning will sound and the steering wheel will vibrate.

  • The function will operate when your vehicle speed is between about 30-130 km/h (19-80 mph) the detected oncoming vehicle or the oncoming motorcyclist speed is about above 10 km/h (6 mph).

Emergency Braking

  • To warn the driver that emergency braking will be assisted, Forward Safety warning light (O) blinking, the 'Emergency Braking' warning message will appear on the instrument cluster, an audible warning will sound and the steering wheel will vibrate.

  • In emergency braking situation, braking is assisted with strong braking power by the function to help prevent collision with the oncoming vehicle.

  • The function will operate when your vehicle speed is between about 30-130 km/h (19-80 mph) and the detected oncoming vehicle or the oncoming motorcyclist speed is about above 10 km/h (6 mph).

Stopping vehicle and ending brake control

2C_FCABasicCollisionWarningInfo

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

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

If your vehicle or the oncoming vehicle or the oncoming motorcyclist is not driving straight, Direct Oncoming function warning and control may be late or may not operate.

When driving at night, the motorcyclist recognition performance is degraded, so Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist may be temporarily limited or may not work.

Press the hazard warning flasher to turn off the audible warning of the collision warning or emergency braking system.

Take the following precautions when using Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist:

  • For your safety, only change the Settings after parking the vehicle at a safe location.

  • Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist does not operate in all situations and cannot avoid all collisions.

  • The driver has the responsibility to control the vehicle. Do not solely depend on Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist. Rather, maintain a safe braking distance, and if necessary, depress the brake pedal to reduce driving speed or to stop the vehicle.

  • Never deliberately operate Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist on people, objects, etc. It may cause serious injury or death.

  • Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist may not operate if the driver depresses the brake pedal to avoid collision.

  • Depending on the road and driving conditions, Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist may warn the driver late or may not warn the driver.

  • During Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist operation, the vehicle may stop suddenly injuring passengers and shifting loose objects. Always have the seat belt on and keep loose objects secured.

  • If any other system's warning message appears or audible warning is generated, Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist warning message may not be displayed and audible warning may not be generated.

  • You may not hear the warning sound of Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist if the surrounding is noisy.

  • Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist may turn off or may not operate properly or may operate unnecessarily depending on the road conditions and the surroundings.

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

  • During emergency braking, braking control by Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist will automatically cancel when the driver excessively depresses the accelerator pedal or sharply steers the vehicle.

  • Depending on the condition of the vehicle, motorcyclist, pedestrian and cyclist in front and the surroundings, the speed range to operate Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist may reduce. Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist may only warn the driver, or it may not operate.

  • Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist will operate under certain conditions by judging the risk level based on the condition of the oncoming vehicle,motorcyclist, driving direction, speed and surroundings.

  • Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist may be limited or disabled if the vehicle speed is too fast or the speed difference with the other vehicle, motorcyclist, or cyclist is large.

  • In a situation where collision is imminent, braking may be assisted by Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist when braking is insufficient by the driver.

  • The images and colors in the instrument cluster may differ depending on the cluster type or theme selected in the infotainment system.
