Pre-Collision Braking System NOTE Some unusual noises may be audible during automatic braking. This is caused by the braking control and is normal. ■ Detection of pedestrians The EyeSight system can also detect pedestrians. The EyeSight system detects pedestrians from their size, shape and movement. The system detects a pedestrian when the contour of the head and shoulders are clear. Approx. 3 1/3 ft - 6 2/3 ft (1-2 m) S02846 WARNING The EyeSight system’s Pre-Collision Braking function also identifies pedestrians as obstacles. However, depending on the conditions, there may be cases when the system cannot detect a pedestrian. In the following conditions, the possibility that the system may not be able to detect a pedestrian as an object is particularly high. • When pedestrians are walking in a group • When a pedestrian is next to a wall or other obstacle • When a pedestrian is using an umbrella • When a pedestrian is wearing clothes that are a similar color to the sur- rounding environment • When a pedestrian is carrying bulky luggage • When a pedestrian is bent over, crouching down or lying down • When a pedestrian is in a dark location • When a pedestrian suddenly crosses in front of you from the side or sud- denly runs in front of you 27
