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 Brake 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 positions.
WARNING
x Never use the Pre-Collision Braking System and Pre-Collision Brake
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 the Pre-Collision Braking System for Brake operation, collisions
may occur.
x When a warning is activated, pay attention to the front of the vehicle and its
surroundings, and operate the
