BLIND-SPOT COLLISION WARNING (BCW) SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)  
(1) Blind-Spot Collision Warning  
(BCW)  
The feature will operate when the  
vehicle is moving in reverse  
below about 6 mph (10 km/h). If  
oncoming cross traffic is detected  
a warning chime will sound. The  
time of alert varies according to  
the speed difference between you  
and the approaching vehicle.  
The Blind-Spot Collision Warning  
A
(BCW) range varies relative to  
vehicle speed. Note that if your  
vehicle is traveling much faster  
than the vehicles around you, the  
warning will not occur.

(2) BCW : Closing at high speed  
WARNING  
The BCW-Closing at high speed  
feature will alert you when a vehi-  
cle is approaching in an adjacent  
lane at a high rate of speed. If the  
driver activates the turn signal  
when the system detects an  
oncoming vehicle, the system  
sounds an audible alert.  
The time of alert (warning signal)  
varies according to the speed dif-  
ference between you and the  
approaching vehicle.  
Always be aware of road con-  
ditions while driving and be  
alert for unexpected situations  
even though the Blind-Spot  
Collision Warning (BCW) sys-  
tem is operating.  
The Blind-Spot Collision  
Warning (BCW) system is not  
a substitute for proper and

FORWARD COLLISION-AVOIDANCE ASSIST (FCA) SYSTEM - CAMERA TYPE (IF EQUIPPED)  
The Forward Collision-Avoidance  
Assist (FCA) system is designed to  
help detect and monitor the vehicle  
ahead in the roadway through cam-  
era recognition that a collision is  
imminent, and if necessary, apply  
emergency braking.  
The camera type Forward

WARNING  
Take the following precautions  
when using the Forward  
Collision-Avoidance  
(FCA) system:  
This system is only a supple-  
mental system and it is not  
intended to, nor does it  
replace the need for extreme  
care and attention of the driv-  
er. The sensing range and  
objects detectable by the sen-  
sors are limited. Pay attention  
to the road conditions at all  
times.

The performance of the FCA system  
may be limited when driving on a  
curved road.  
In certain instances on a curved  
road, the FCA system may activate  
prematurely.  
Also, in certain instances the front  
camera recognition system may not  
detect the vehicle traveling on a  
curved road.  
In these cases, the driver must main-  
tain a safe braking distance, and if  
necessary, depress the brake pedal

- Changing lanes  
When driving in stop-and-go traffic, - Detecting the vehicle in front of you  
and a vehicle in front of you merges  
out of the lane, the FCA system may  
not immediately detect the new vehi-  
cle that is now in front of you. In this  
case, you must maintain a safe brak-  
ing distance, and if necessary,  
depress the brake pedal to reduce  
your driving speed in order to main-  
tain a safe distance.  
When a vehicle changes lanes in  
front of you, the FCA system may not  
immediately detect the vehicle, espe-  
cially if the vehicle changes lanes  
abruptly. In this case, you must main-  
tain a safe braking distance, and if  
necessary, depress the brake pedal  
to reduce your driving speed in order  
to maintain a safe distance.  
If the vehicle in front of you has cargo  
that extends rearward from the cab,  
or when the vehicle in front of you  
has higher ground clearance, addi-  
tional special attention is required.  
The FCA system may not be able to  
detect the cargo extending from the  
vehicle. In these instances, you must  
maintain a safe braking distance  
from the rearmost object, and if nec-  
essary, depress the brake pedal to  
reduce your driving speed in order to  
maintain distance.

FCA system while towing may  
adversely affect the safety of  
your vehicle or the towing  
vehicle.  
Use extreme caution when the  
vehicle in front of you has  
cargo that extends rearward  
from the cab, or when the  
vehicle in front of you has

The FCA system is designed  
to help detect and monitor the  
vehicle ahead in the roadway  
through camera recognition. It  
is not designed to detect bicy-  
cles, motorcycles, or smaller  
wheeled objects such as lug-  
gage bags, shopping carts, or  
strollers.
