Approach warning

If your vehicle comes closer to the vehicle ahead
due to rapid deceleration of that vehicle or if
another vehicle cuts in, the system warns the
driver with the chime and ICC system display.
Decelerate by depressing the brake pedal to
maintain a safe vehicle distance if:

● The chime sounds.
● The vehicle ahead detection indicator blinks.

The warning chime may not sound in some cases
when there is a short distance between vehicles.
Some examples are:

● When the vehicles are traveling at the same

speed and the distance between vehicles is
not changing

● When the vehicle ahead is traveling faster

and the distance between vehicles is in-
creasing

● When a vehicle cuts in near your vehicle

The warning chime will not sound when:

● The vehicle approaches other vehicles that

are parked or moving slowly.

● The accelerator pedal is depressed, overrid-

ing the system.

NOTE:

The approach warning chime may sound
and the system display may blink when the
ICC sensor detects objects on the side of
the vehicle or on the side of the road. This
may cause the ICC system to decelerate or
accelerate the vehicle. The ICC sensor may
detect these objects when the vehicle is
driven on winding roads, narrow roads, hilly
roads, or when entering or exiting a curve.
In these cases you will have to manually
control the proper distance ahead of your
vehicle.

Also, the sensor sensitivity can be affected by
vehicle operation (steering maneuver or driving
position in the lane) or traffic or vehicle condition
(for example, if a vehicle is being driven with some
damage).

Automatic cancellation

A chime sounds under the following conditions
and the control is automatically canceled.

● When the vehicle ahead is not detected and

your vehicle is traveling below the speed of
15 MPH (24 km/h)

● When the system judges the vehicle is at

standstill

● When the shift lever is not in the D (Drive) or

Manual mode

● When the parking brake is applied
● When the VDC system is turned off
● When ABS or VDC (including the traction

control system) operates

● When a wheel slips
