Pre-crash Safety
The pre-crash safety uses a radar sensor and forward recognition camera to detect vehicle and pedestrian in front of your vehicle.
When the system determines that the possibility of a frontal collision with a vehicle or pedestrian is high, a warning operates to urge the driver to take evasive action and the potential brake pressure is increased to help the driver avoid the collision.
If the system determines that the possibility of a frontal collision with a vehicle or pedestrian is imminent, the brakes are automatically applied to help avoid the collision or help reduce the impact to the vehicle occupants and the vehicle in the collision.
Pre-crash warning
When the system determines that the possibility of a frontal collision is high, a buzzer will sound and a warning message will be displayed on the multi-information display to urge the driver to take evasive action.
Pre-crash brake assist
When the system determines that the possibility of a frontal collision is high, the system applies greater braking force in relation to how strongly the brake pedal is depressed.
Pre-crash braking
If the system determines that the possibility of a collision is imminent, the brakes are automatically applied to help avoid the collision or reduce the impact.
Warning Indication
The combination meter assembly uses the multi-information display, master warning light, PCS warning light and buzzer to provide the driver with pre-crash safety malfunction and indications.
If the driving support ECU assembly determines that a possibility of a collision is high, it sends a signal to the combination meter assembly and skid control buzzer. Upon receiving this signal, the combination meter assembly indicates a warning using the multi-information display. Also upon receiving this signal, the skid control buzzer sounds. Details are indicated below.
| Multi-information Display | Skid Control Buzzer |
| BRAKE! | Sound Continuously |
Each time the pre-crash system cancel switch is pressed, the warning timing changes as follows:
Far (operation starts earlier)
Middle (default setting)
Near (operation starts later)
When the pre-crash system cancel switch assembly is pressed to turn the system on, the current warning timing will be displayed on the multi-information display.
The operation timing setting is retained when the engine switch is turned off.
The pre-crash safety can be turned on or off by operating the pre-crash system cancel switch assembly. When the pre-crash system cancel switch assembly is on for 3 seconds or more, the system operations stops. When the pre-crash safety is off, "Pre-crash Safety Off" is displayed on the multi-information display and the PCS warning light illuminates.
The system is automatically enabled each time the engine switch is turned to ON mode.

When the system is not available, the following warning occurs to warn the driver.
