Acceleration Override Assist
� Continued from previous page
• Acceleration Override Assist is not designed to maintain the vehicle in a stopped condition.
• Acceleration Override Assist will not reduce acceleration under all conditions. It is also not designed to prevent collisions.
• Acceleration Override Assist will operate when an obstacle is detected in front. However, this function will not reduce acceleration in cases where no obstacle is detected( for example when approaching a cliff, etc.).
• Do not intentionally depress the accelerator pedal excessively when there are obstacles nearby. If the driver relies only on Acceleration Override Assist to control acceleration, collisions may occur.
• If your vehicle is trapped on a railroad crossing and you are trying to escape by driving through the crossing gate, the stereo camera may recognize the crossing gate as an obstacle and the Acceleration Override Assist system may activate. In this case, remain calm and take one of the following actions to release Acceleration Override Assist.- Continue to depress the accelerator pedal for approximately 6 seconds.- Release the accelerator pedal and gradually depress it again.- Release the accelerator pedal.- Turn off the Acceleration Override Assist.

• Acceleration Override Assist may not activate depending on the following conditions:- The distance between your vehicle and the obstacle, speed difference, and horizontal offset- Vehicle conditions( amount of load, number of occupants, etc.)- Road conditions( grade, slipperiness, shape, bumps, etc.)- Recognition status of the stereo camera
In particular, the function may not activate in the following cases:
• Bad weather( for example heavy rain, a blizzard or thick fog)
• Visibility is poor due to sand, smoke or water vapor blowing in the wind, or the front vision is obscured due to water splashes, snow, dirt or dust stir up generated by the vehicle in front or oncoming traffic.
