About EyeSight
About EyeSight
EyeSight is a driving support system that uses a range of functions to assist the driver in making decisions in order to provide for more safe and comfortable driving and to reduce driver fatigue. Making use of images created by the camera, EyeSight detects the vehicle in front, obstacles, traffic lanes and other items. For models with BSD / RCTA, EyeSight also uses radar sensors to detect vehicles close to the rear of your vehicle.
WARNING
Drivers are responsible for driving safely. Always comply with all traffic rules and regulations regardless of the fact that your vehicle is equipped with EyeSight. Always maintain a safe following distance between your vehicle and the vehicle in front of you, pay attention to your surroundings and driving conditions, and take necessary actions in order to maintain a safe following distance. Never attempt to drive relying on EyeSight alone. EyeSight is intended to assist the driver in making decisions in order to reduce the risk of accidents or damage and lessen the burden on the driver. When an EyeSight warning is activated, pay attention to what is in front of you and to your surroundings, and take necessary actions. This system is not designed to support driving in poor visibility or in extreme weather conditions, or to protect against careless driving when the driver is not paying complete attention to the road ahead. It also cannot prevent collisions from occurring in all driving conditions. When an alert / notification, Pre-Collision Braking System, Automatic Emergency Steering or other system activates, the driver should check the area around the vehicle and then take appropriate action. There are limits to the EyeSight recognition performance and control performance. Be sure to read the instructions for each function before using the system, and always use it properly. Improper use may lead to failure of control performance, which could cause an accident.
