Making use of images created by stereo cameras specially designed by SUBARU, EyeSight detects the vehicle in front, obstacles, traffic lanes and other items. EyeSight 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 behind the vehicle in front of you, pay attention to your surroundings and the driving conditions, operate the brake pedal and take other action as necessary 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 chance of accidents or damage and lessen the burden on the driver. When a warning is activated, pay attention to what is in front of you and to your surroundings, operate the brake pedal and take other action as necessary. 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. 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. Refer to the following pages for each function: • For the Pre-Collision Braking System, refer to page 21. • For Adaptive Cruise Control, refer to page 33. • For Pre-Collision Throttle Management, refer to page 53. • For Conventional Cruise Control, refer to page 66. The EyeSight system in your vehicle is designed for use in countries in which traffic operates on the right-hand side of the road. EyeSight for LHD vehicles such as yours is not designed for use in countries in which vehicles are driven on the left-hand side of the road. • The system may not operate correctly under the conditions listed below. When these conditions occur, turn off the Pre-Collision Braking System. Also, do not use Adaptive and Conventional Cruise Control. – The tire pressure is not correct.*1 – The temporary spare tire is installed on any wheel.*1 About EyeSight 3 – Tires that are worn or have large variations in wear conditions are installed.*1 – Tires other than those of the designated size are installed.*1 – Flat tires have been fixed temporarily with a tire repair kit. – The suspension has been modified (including a genuine SUBARU suspension that has been modified). – Any object that disturbs the stereo cameras’ view is installed on the vehicle. – The headlights are dirty or they have snow and ice or dirt on them. (Objects are not correctly illuminated and are difficult to detect.) – The optical axes are not aligned correctly.

About EyeSight 4 CAUTION • The characteristics of the stereo cameras are similar to those of human eyes. For this reason, conditions that make it difficult for the driver to see in the forward direction have the same effect on the stereo cameras and make it difficult for the system to detect vehicles, obstacles and traffic lanes. • Detection by the EyeSight system is limited to objects that are within the range of the stereo cameras’ field of vision. Also, after an object enters the range of the cameras’ field of vision, it may take some time for the system to detect it as a controllable target and warn the driver. • Under the conditions listed below, it will become more difficult for the system to detect the vehicle in front, motorcycles, bicycles, pedestrians and obstacles on the road, and lane markers. Also, EyeSight may temporarily stop operating. However, the temporary stop will be canceled once these conditions have improved and the vehicle is driven for a short period of time. – Bad weather (for example heavy rain, a blizzard or thick fog). In particular, the system is more likely to temporarily stop operating when there is an oil film adhering to the windshield, a glass coating has been applied or old wipers are used.) – When affected by strong light from the front (sunlight or headlight beams of oncoming traffic, etc.) – When the front windshield washer is being used. – The windshield has become fogged, or snow, dirt, dust or frost has adhered to it, reducing the stereo cameras’ field of view. – The vehicle is tilted at an extreme angle due to loaded cargo or other factors. – When visibility is poor due to sand, smoke or water vapor in the air, or when the vehicle in front or oncoming traffic causes water, snow, dirt or other substances to obscure the view – When the stereo cameras’ field of view is obstructed (for example by a canoe on the roof of the vehicle) Low objects surrounding the vehicle cannot be detected. S01263 About EyeSight 5 – When passing through the entrance or exit of a tunnel – When the rear aspect of the vehicle in front is low, small or irregular (for example a low bed trailer, etc.) – When there is a fence, a wall or a shutter, etc. with a uniform pattern (a striped pattern, brick, etc.) or with no pattern in front – When there is a wall or door made of glass or a mirror in front – When driving at night or in a tunnel when there is a vehicle in front that does not have its taillights on – When passing a banner or flag, low branches on a tree or thick/tall vegetation – On steep uphill or downhill grades – When the stereo cameras are obstructed by a hand, etc. (If even one of the cameras is obstructed, the system does not operate properly.) – When it is completely dark and no objects are detected – When the area around the vehicle has a uniform color (such as when completely covered in snow, etc.) – When the stereo camera lenses are dirty due to fingerprints, etc. – When accurate detection is not possible due to reflections in the front windshield – When the stereo cameras have become misaligned due to a strong impact • Under the conditions listed below, EyeSight may temporarily stop operating. If this occurs, EyeSight will resume operating when the conditions improve. – The temperature inside the vehicle is high, such as after the vehicle was left in bright sunshine, or the temperature inside the vehicle is low, such as after the vehicle was left in an extremely cold environment. – Immediately after the engine starts • When there is a malfunction in the EyeSight system, turn off the Pre-Collision Braking System (⇒ refer to page 31) and the Lane Departure Warning (⇒ refer to page 61), and stop using the Adaptive Cruise Control. Contact a SUBARU dealer and have the system inspected. About EyeSight 6 NOTE • EyeSight records and stores the following data when the Pre-Collision Braking System is operated. It does not record conversations or other audio data. – Stereo camera image data – Distance from the vehicle in front – Vehicle speed – Steering wheel turning angle – Lateral movement with regard to the direction of travel – Accelerator pedal operation status – Brake pedal operation status – Select lever position – Odometer reading – Data related to ABS, Vehicle Dynamics Control and Traction Control Function SUBARU and third parties contracted by SUBARU may acquire and use the recorded data for the purpose of vehicle research and development. SUBARU and third parties contracted by SUBARU will not disclose or provide the acquired data to any other third party except under the following conditions. • The vehicle owner has given his/her consent. • The disclosure/provision is based on a court order or other legally enforceable request. • Data that has been modified so that the user and vehicle cannot be identified is provided to a research institution for statistical processing or similar purposes. About EyeSight 7 The stereo cameras are installed at the positions of the front map lights. Continued on next page ⇒ Handling of the Stereo Cameras CAUTION • A function is included that will automatically detect that the fronts of the stereo cameras are dirty. However it is not 100% effective. Under certain conditions, this function may fail to detect that the fronts of the stereo cameras have become dirty. In addition, this function may not detect that there is snow or ice on the windshield close to the stereo cameras. In such conditions, be sure to keep the windshield clean at all times (indicated by ). Otherwise the system may not operate correctly. When this function detects that the fronts of the stereo cameras are dirty, no EyeSight functions are activated except for Conventional Cruise Control. • The stereo camera is a precision component. Always observe the following precautions especially when handling lenses. – Never touch the stereo camera lenses, and do not attempt to wipe or clean the lenses. Doing so could cause lens damage or contamination and lead to improper system performance. If you ever touch a lens for any reason, be sure to contact a SUBARU dealer. A S01107 Stereo cameras About EyeSight 8 ⇒ Continued from previous page – When cleaning the front windshield, cover the front of the camera casing with paper that does not collect dust, such as copy paper. Affix the paper to prevent glass cleaner from getting on the camera lenses. At this point, make sure that the tape’s adhesive surface does not come in contact with the windshield or the lens. Be sure to remove the paper after cleaning. – When having the inside of windshield cleaned at a service station, etc., be sure to request that the attendant covers the camera covers before washing the vehicle. – Do not subject the stereo cameras to a strong impact. – Do not remove or disassemble the stereo cameras. – Do not change the positions where the stereo cameras are installed or modify any of the surrounding structures. • Do not install an interior rearview mirror other than a genuine SUBARU rearview mirror (such as a wide-type mirror) and the sun visor. Also, use the rearview mirror so that it does not obstruct the stereo cameras. Failure to do so may affect the stereo cameras’ field of vision and could prevent the EyeSight system from functioning properly. S01097 S00509 About EyeSight 9 Continued on next page ⇒ • Do not install any accessories other than the ones designated by SUBARU on the prohibited areas shown in the illustrations (grey zones). Even if some accessories are installed on the outside of the prohibited areas, abnormal operation of EyeSight may occur due to the reflection of the light or any objects. In this situation, move the accessories. For details, contact a SUBARU dealer. • Do not place any objects on top of the instrument panel. The stereo cameras may not be able to detect objects accurately and the EyeSight system may not function properly due to reflections in the front windshield. For details, contact a SUBARU dealer. • If the top of the instrument panel is polished with chemicals or other substances, the stereo cameras may not be able to detect objects accurately and the EyeSight system may not operate properly due to reflections in the front windshield. • Do not install any wiper blades other than genuine SUBARU wiper blades. Doing so may affect the stereo cameras’ field of vision and could prevent the EyeSight system from functioning properly. • Replace damaged wiper blades as soon as possible. The stereo cameras may not be able to detect objects accurately and the EyeSight system may not function properly due to liquid remaining on the windshield. • Do not install any accessories on the front side such as on the hood or the grille. It may affect the camera view and the system may not operate correctly. • Make sure that the cargo loaded on the roof does not obstruct or interfere in the stereo cameras’ field of view. Obstructing the stereo cameras’ view may impair the system operation. For details, contact a SUBARU dealer. Monitor or other accessories S01108 S01098 About EyeSight 10 ⇒ Continued from previous page • Keep the windshield (outside and inside) clean at all times. When the windshield has become fogged, or it has a dirt or an oil film on it, the stereo camera may not detect objects accurately and the EyeSight system may not operate correctly. • Do not place any stickers or accessories on the windshield (outside or inside). If you have to do so (for example, legally required or electronic toll tag), avoid the area directly in front of the camera. Doing so may adversely affect the field of vision of the stereo camera and can cause improper operation of the system. For details, contact a SUBARU dealer. • Do not use any glass coating agents or similar substances on the windshield. Doing so may prevent the system from operating correctly. • Do not install a film on the front windshield. The system may not operate correctly. • If there are scratches or cracks on the front windshield, contact a SUBARU dealer. • To have the front windshield replaced or repaired, contact a SUBARU dealer. Do not install a front windshield other than a genuine SUBARU front windshield. The stereo cameras may not be able to detect objects accurately and the EyeSight system may not operate properly. About EyeSight 11 EyeSight includes the following functions. ■Pre-Collision Braking System This function uses a following distance warning feature to warn the driver to take evasive action when there is the possibility of a collision with a vehicle or obstacle in front of the driver’s vehicle. If the driver still does not take evasive action, the brakes are quickly applied automatically just before the collision in order to reduce the collision damage or, if possible, prevent the collision. ⇒ Refer to page 21. ■Adaptive Cruise Control This function maintains the set vehicle speed and when there is a vehicle in front in the same traffic lane, it tracks the speed of the vehicle in front up to the maximum of the set vehicle speed. ⇒ Refer to page 33. ■Pre-Collision Throttle Management This function reduces accidental forward movement caused by the selector lever being placed in the wrong position or the accelerator pedal being accidently depressed, or depressed too strongly. ⇒ Refer to page 53. ■Lane Departure Warning This function warns the driver when the vehicle is about to depart the traffic lane during driving. ⇒ Refer to page 59. ■Lane Sway Warning This system detects vehicle drifting caused by driver fatigue, failure to concentrate on the road, inattention, strong crosswinds or other factors, and warns the driver. ⇒ Refer to page 62. ■Lead Vehicle Start Alert This function notifies the driver when the vehicle in front has started moving but the driver’s vehicle has not. ⇒ Refer to page 65.

If the driver still does not take evasive action to avoid a collision, the brakes can be automatically applied just before the collision in order to reduce impact damage, or if possible, prevent the collision. If the driver takes evasive action to avoid a collision, Pre-Collision Brake Assist will operate in order to help the driver to prevent the collision. This system can be effective not only with direct rear-end collisions, but also with offset rear-end collisions. This function can be activated when the select lever is in the , or positions. Continued on next page ⇒ WARNING • Never use the Pre-Collision Braking System and Pre-Collision Brake Assist to stop your car or avoid a collision under ordinary conditions. These functions cannot prevent collisions under all conditions. If the driver relies only on the Pre-Collision Braking System for Brake operation, collisions may occur. • When a warning is activated, pay attention to the front of the vehicle and its surroundings, and operate the brake pedal and/or take other actions if necessary. • The EyeSight Pre-Collision Braking System is primarily designed to prevent rear-end collisions with other vehicles when possible and to minimize damage and injuries in the event of a collision. In addition to other vehicles, things such as motorbikes, bicycles and pedestrians can also be treated as obstacles. However, there may be cases when detection is not possible depending on a variety of conditions*2. For example, when a vehicle is viewed from the side, oncoming vehicle, vehicles approaching in reverse, small animals or children, or walls or doors are not likely to be detected. • The Pre-Collision Braking System will operate at the point when it determines that a collision cannot be avoided and is designed to apply strong braking force just before a collision. The result of this varies depending on a variety of conditions*2. Because of this, performance of this function will not always be the same. • When the Pre-Collision Braking System is activated, it will continue to operate even if the accelerator pedal is partially depressed. However, it will be canceled if the accelerator pedal is deeply depressed. • If the driver depresses the brake pedal or turns the steering wheel, the system may determine that this constitutes evasive action by the driver, and the automatic braking control may not activate in order to allow the driver full control. • When the difference in speed with the obstacle in front is the following figure* 1 or more, it may not be possible to avoid a collision. Even if the speed difference is the following figure*1 or less, in cases such as when another vehicle cuts in front of you, or in other cases depending on visibility, the condition of road surface and other factors*2, the function may be unable to stop the vehicle or may not activate. Pre-Collision Brake Assist also may not activate depending on the conditions*2 listed below. *1: For vehicles: approximately 30 MPH (50 km/h), For pedestrians: approximately 20 MPH (35 km/h) *2: Conditions – Distance to obstacle in front of you, speed difference, proximity conditions, lateral displacement (the amount of offset) – Vehicle conditions (amount of load, number of occupants, etc.) – Road conditions (grade, slipperiness, shape, bumps, etc.) – When visibility ahead is poor (rain, snow, fog or smoke, etc.) D M N Pre-Collision Braking System 22 ⇒ Continued from previous page – When the detected object is something other than a vehicle, motorcycle, bicycle or pedestrian • A domestic animal or other animal (a dog or deer, etc.) • A guardrail, telephone pole, tree, fence or wall, etc. – Even if the obstacle is a motorcycle, bicycle or pedestrian, depending on the brightness of the surroundings as well as the relative movement, and aspect or angle of the object, there may be cases when the system cannot detect it. – When the system determines that operation by the driver (based on accelerator pedal operation, braking, steering wheel angle, etc.) is intended as evasive action – Vehicle maintenance status (brake systems, tire wear, tire pressure, whether a temporary spare tire is being used, etc.) – When towing a trailer or another vehicle, etc. – When the brakes are cold due to outside temperature being low or just after starting the engine. – When the brakes are overheated on downhill grades (braking effectiveness is reduced) – When driving in rain or after washing the vehicle (the brakes are wet and braking effectiveness is reduced) – Recognition conditions of the stereo cameras In particular, the function may be unable to stop the vehicle or may not activate in the following cases. • Bad weather (for example heavy rain, a blizzard or thick fog) • When visibility is poor due to sand, smoke or water vapor in the air or when the vehicle in front or oncoming traffic causes water, snow, dirt, dust or other substances to obscure the view through the windshield • When driving at night or in a tunnel without the headlights on • When driving at night or in a tunnel when there is a vehicle in front that does not have its taillights on • When approaching a motorcycle, bicycle or pedestrian at night • When ambient light is poor in the evening or early morning • When a vehicle, motorcycle, bicycle or pedestrian is outside the area illuminated by the headlights • When affected by strong light from the front (for example, sunlight at dawn, sunset or headlight beams, etc.) • When there is snow, frost, dirt or dust on the windshield or it is clouded • When fluid has not been fully wiped off the windshield during or after washer use • When the target cannot be correctly recognized because the stereo cameras’ view is obstructed by water droplets from rain or the window washer, or by the wiper blades. • When the stereo cameras’ field of view is obstructed (for example by a canoe on the roof of the vehicle) Pre-Collision Braking System 23 Continued on next page ⇒ • When the rear aspect of the vehicle in front is low, small or irregular (the system may recognize another part of the vehicle as its rear and will determine operation from that) – When there is an empty truck or trailer with no rear and/or side panels on the cargo bed – With vehicles that have cargo protruding from their back ends – With non-standard shaped vehicles (vehicle transporters or vehicles with a sidecar fitted, etc.) – When the height of the vehicle is low, etc. • When there is a wall, etc. in front of a stopped vehicle • When there is another object near the vehicle • When a vehicle, etc. has it’s side facing you. • With vehicles that are backing up or with oncoming vehicles, etc. • When the size and height of an obstacle is smaller than the limitations of the stereo cameras’ recognition capability – With small animals or children, etc. – With pedestrians who are sitting or lying down • When the detected object is a fence or wall, etc. with a uniform pattern (a striped pattern or brick pattern, etc.) • When there is a wall or door made of glass or a mirror in front • When the vehicle in front suddenly swerves, accelerates, or decelerates. • When a vehicle, motorcycle, bicycle or pedestrian suddenly cuts in from the side or suddenly runs in front of you. • When you suddenly change lanes and your vehicle is immediately behind an obstacle • When there is a vehicle, motorcycle, bicycle or pedestrian in a location close to your vehicle’s bumper • When the speed difference between your vehicle and an obstacle is 5 MPH (5 km/h) or less (As braking is performed once the obstacle is in close proximity to your vehicle, depending on the shape and size of the obstacle, there may be some cases when the obstacle is outside the range of the cameras’ field of vision.)

Otherwise the Pre-Collision Braking System may activate unexpectedly. – When the vehicle is being towed – When loading the vehicle onto a carrier – When a chassis dynamometer, free-rollers or similar equipment is used – When a mechanic lifts up the vehicle, starts the engine and spins the wheels freely – When passing hanging banners, flags or branches, or when thick/tall vegetation is contacting the vehicle – When using a drive-through car wash • The Pre-Collision Braking System may activate in the following situations. Therefore concentrate on safe driving. – When passing through an automatic gate (opening and shutting) – When driving close to the vehicle in front – When driving in a location where the grade of the road changes rapidly – When visibility is poor due to sand, smoke or water vapor in the air, or when the vehicle in front or oncoming traffic causes water, snow, dirt or other substances to obscure the view – When passing through clouds of steam or smoke, etc. S00656 S01264 Pre-Collision Braking System 26 ⇒ Continued from previous page – When the exhaust gas emitted by the vehicle in front is clearly visible in cold weather, etc. – When there is an obstacle on a curve or intersection – When narrowly passing a vehicle or an object – When stopping very close to a wall or a vehicle in front • If there is cargo or installed accessories, etc. that are protruding over the edge of the front bumper, the vehicle’s length will increase and the system may not be able to prevent a collision. • If the driver operates the brake pedal during automatic braking, the pedal may feel stiff; however, this is normal. By depressing the brake pedal further you can apply more braking force. NOTE Some unusual noises may be audible during automatic braking. This is caused by the braking control and is normal. S00652 S00692 Pre-Collision Braking System 27 ■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. WARNING The EyeSight system’s Pre-Collision Braking function also treats 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 surrounding 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 suddenly runs in front of you Approx 3 1/3 ft – 6 2/3 ft (1-2 m) S00693 Pre-Collision Braking System 28 When there is an obstacle in the forward direction during driving, the system activates in the following sequence in order to warn the driver, activate braking control, and active the brake lights. Following Distance Warning: When the system determines that there is a risk of collision, a buzzer sounds repeated short beeps and the indicators on the multi information display illuminate to warn the driver. The Following Distance Warning operates when Adaptive Cruise Control is not set. When the driver depresses the brake pedal to decelerate and achieves a suitable following distance, the warning is canceled. First Braking and Warning: When the system determines that there is a high risk of collision with an obstacle in front, a buzzer sounds repeated short beeps and the indicators on the multi information display illuminate to warn the driver, and braking control is activated and the engine output, in some situations, is also controlled. If the system determines that the amount of evasive action (braking, steering, etc.) taken by the driver has reduced the risk of collision, braking activation is canceled. Secondary Braking and Warning: If the system then determines that the risk of collision is extremely high, the buzzer changes to a continuous beeping sound and stronger braking control is activated. If, despite any evasive action taken by the driver, the system subsequently determines that a collision is unavoidable, braking control and the engine output control are continued. Even after the vehicle has stopped, depress the brake pedal. Vehicle restart: After the vehicle is completely stopped by the automatic braking system, brake will be slightly released 2 seconds after vehicle stop. After sounding a short tone “beep, beep, ding”, the vehicle starts creeping. Pre-Collision Braking System operation Pre-Collision Braking System 29 Continued on next page ⇒ NOTE • After the vehicle stopping with secondary braking, the system will release the brake in the following conditions. – When the brake pedal is depressed. – When the accelerator pedal is depressed (except when the select lever is in the position). – When the select lever is shifted in the position • After stopping with secondary braking, in the following cases, operate parking brake and release brake control. – When any door (except the rear gate/trunk) was opened – When EyeSight is temporarily stopped – When there is a malfunction in the EyeSight system & warning Secondary braking & warning First braking Possible collision area Highly possible collision area Extremely highly possible collision area Obstacle First braking No brake control Repeated short beeps Repeated short beeps Secondary Strong braking Operating system Indication on the multi information display Continuous beep Moderate Strength of Automatic Braking Warning buzzer type Following distance warning Following distance warning S01330 N P Pre-Collision Braking System 30 ⇒ Continued from previous page When the Pre-Collision Braking System is activated (when the system determines that there is a high risk of collision with an obstacle in front), if the driver depresses the brake pedal, the system determines that this is emergency braking and activates braking assist automatically. • Neither primary Pre-Collision Braking or secondary Pre-Collision Braking will operate in the following cases. – When your vehicle speed is approximately 1 MPH (1 km/h) or less (When the selector lever is in the position and your vehicle speed is approximately 2 MPH (4 km/h) or less) or 100 MPH (160 km/h) or more – When VDC is active • If the system detects the brake lights of the vehicle in front, your vehicle will start decelerating earlier than if it does not. • There are some cases where the primary Pre-Collision Braking is applied for a longer period of time. One of the reasons for this is due to a large speed difference with an obstacle in front. In those cases, stronger or weaker braking control may be activated. Pre-Collision Braking Assist operation CAUTION If the driver depresses the brake pedal manually while following distance warning is activated, the Pre-Collision Braking Assist will not work. (The vehicle decelerates with the normal braking force operated by the driver.) NOTE • Pre-Collision Braking Assist function does not operate when the vehicle speed is approximately 7 MPH (10 km/h) or less or 100 MPH (160 km/h) or more. • For information about the braking assist function, refer to the Owner’s Manual for your vehicle. N Pre-Collision Braking System 31 Pressing and holding the Pre-Collision Braking System OFF switch for approximately 2 seconds (or longer) turns off the Pre-Collision Braking System (including Pre-Collision Brake Assist). When 1 short beep sound emits, this control is turned off and the Pre-Collision Braking System OFF indicator light on the instrument panel illuminates. To turn the control back on, press and hold the Pre-Collision Braking System OFF switch for approximately 2 seconds or longer again. When this control is turned on, the Pre-Collision Braking System OFF indicator light turns off. Turning off the Pre-Collision Braking System NOTE • When the Pre-Collision Braking System is turned off, the Pre-Collision Throttle Management Control function is also turned off. • Even when the Pre-Collision Braking System is turned off, if the ignition switch is turned off and the engine is then restarted, the Pre-Collision Braking System will be turned on. The system default setting when the vehicle is restarted in “ON”. S00813 Pre-Collision Braking System 32 ■Pre-Collision Braking System OFF indicator light This indicator light illuminates when the ignition switch is turned to the ON position, and then remains illuminated for approximately 7 seconds after the engine starts. It turns on when the Pre-Collision Braking System is turned off. It also illuminates under the following conditions. • When the EyeSight system has a malfunction ⇒ Refer to page 79. • When the EyeSight system has stopped temporarily ⇒ Refer to page 80. NOTE When the Pre-Collision Braking System OFF indicator light is turned on, the Pre-Collision Braking System (including the Pre-Collision Braking Assist function) does not operate. S01331 Adaptive Cruise Control 33 Adaptive Cruise Control Adaptive Cruise Control is a driving support system intended to allow more comfortable driving on expressways, freeways and interstate highways. The vehicle in front in the same traffic lane is detected by means of the stereo cameras, and your vehicle tracks the vehicle in front (up to the maximum speed of the set vehicle speed) while automatically maintaining a following distance that corresponds to the speed of the vehicle in front. The system uses the vehicle’s conventional braking system to stop your vehicle when the vehicle in front is stopped. The vehicle is capable of being controlled at a speed between approximately 0 and 90 MPH (145 km/h). Please remember that you should not exceed posted speed limits. Continued on next page ⇒ WARNING • This system does not provide the driver with an automatic driving function that handles all traffic conditions. • Do not rely excessively on Adaptive Cruise Control. This system is not intended to assist in driving when the driver is not paying full attention to what is ahead of him/her due to distractions or a lack of concentration while driving, or under conditions of poor visibility. It is not intended to prevent rear-end collisions. Strive for safe driving at all times. Always maintain a safe following distance behind the vehicle in front of you, pay attention to your surroundings and the driving conditions, and operate the brake pedal and take other action as necessary. • Set the set vehicle speed within a range that is appropriate to the road conditions and surrounding environment. • Before using the system, perform a daily inspection and verify that there are no malfunctions of the tires or brakes. ⇒ Refer to the separate “Warranty and Maintenance Booklet”. • The system may not operate correctly under the conditions listed below. When these conditions occur, do not use Adaptive Cruise Control. – The tire pressure is not correct.*1 – The temporary spare tire is installed on any wheel.*1 – Tires that are worn or have large variations in wear conditions are installed.*1 – Tires other than those of the designated size are installed.*1 – Flat tires have been fixed temporarily with a tire repair kit. – The suspension has been modified (including a genuine SUBARU suspension that has been modified). – Any object that disturbs the stereo cameras’ view is installed on the vehicle. – The headlights are dirty or they have snow and ice or dirt on them.

Be sure to use the correct ones. For details, refer to the Owner’s Manual for your vehicle. *2: For details about the combination meter, refer to the Owner’s Manual for your vehicle. Adaptive Cruise Control 34 ⇒ Continued from previous page • Adaptive Cruise Control is designed for use on expressways, freeways, toll roads, interstate highways and similar limited access roads. It is not intended to be used in city traffic. In the following conditions, do not use Adaptive Cruise Control. Doing so may result in an accident. – Ordinary roads (roads other than those mentioned above) Depending on the driving environment (complexity of roads and other factors), the system may not be able to perform as the traffic conditions require, and that may result in an accident. – Roads with sharp curves or winding roads – Frozen roads, snow-covered roads or other slippery road surfaces The tires may spin, causing loss of control of the vehicle. – Traffic conditions when frequent acceleration and deceleration make it difficult to maintain the following distance It may not be possible for the system to perform as the traffic conditions require. – Steep downhill grades The set vehicle speed may be exceeded. – On a steep continuous downhill grade The brakes may overheat. – Roads and overpasses with repeated steep uphill and downhill grades Detection of the vehicle in front may be lost, or the road surface may be detected instead of the vehicle in front, making correct control impossible. – When entering a sharp curve into an interchange or junction, or a service area, parking area, toll booth or other facilities Detection of the vehicle in front may not be possible. – When there are changes in brightness, such as at a tunnel entrance or exit – When visibility is poor due to sand, smoke or water vapor blowing in the wind, or when the vehicle in front or oncoming traffic causes water, snow, dirt or dust to obscure the view Detection of the vehicle in front may be lost, or water or other substances may be incorrectly detected instead, making correct control impossible. – When there is snow, frost, dirt or dust on the windshield or it is clouded S00652 Adaptive Cruise Control 35 Continued on next page ⇒ – When water droplets from rain or the window washer, or dirt has not been fully wiped off the windshield It may not be possible to detect the vehicle in front, making correct control impossible. – When the stereo cameras’ field of view is obstructed (for example by a canoe on the roof of the vehicle) • The stereo cameras may have difficulty detecting the following objects or conditions. Operate the brake pedal and take other actions as necessary. – Vehicles at significantly different speeds (vehicles driving slowly, stopped or oncoming vehicles, etc.) – Vehicles cutting into your lane – Motorcycles, bicycles, pedestrians and animals, etc. – When light is poor in the evening or early morning – When driving at night or in a tunnel without the headlights on – When driving at night or in a tunnel when there is a vehicle in front that does not have its taillights on – When affected by strong light from the front (sunlight or headlight high beams, etc.) – Vehicles in front that have a rear aspect that is low, small or irregular (the system may recognize another part of the vehicle and will determine operation from that) • An empty truck or trailer that has no cargo in the cargo bed being affected by wind • Vehicles that have cargo protruding from their back ends • Non-standard shaped vehicles (vehicle transporters or vehicles with a sidecar fitted, etc.) • Vehicles that are low – Objects that are located close to the bumper of your vehicle • When you do not want to use Adaptive Cruise Control, be sure to turn the (CRUISE) switch off. If the switch is left on, cruise control may be accidentally engaged, possibly resulting in an accident. • Before using Adaptive Cruise Control, be sure to fully verify the safety of the vehicle occupants and the area around the vehicle. Never operate the cruise control from outside the vehicle. S00654 Adaptive Cruise Control 36 ⇒ Continued from previous page Detection of the vehicle in front by the EyeSight stereo cameras • Under the following road conditions or conditions of your vehicle, detection of the vehicle in front may not be possible. Vehicles in neighboring traffic lanes or roadside objects may also be incorrectly detected. Under conditions such as these, do not use Adaptive Cruise Control. If cruise control is currently in use, operate the brake pedal and take other action as necessary. – When tracking begins from a short following distance, such as when the vehicle in front is a vehicle that cut into your lane – When driving on curved roads, at the start and end of a curve and on roads with continuous curves (These conditions make it difficult for the system to detect vehicles because they are outside the detectable area.) – When driving on an onramp or off-ramp to a freeway, highway, or other restricted access road (EyeSight Adaptive Cruise Control is not designed for use in this kind of driving environment.) – When driving in an urban, or suburban environment (Adaptive Cruise Control is not appropriate for use in these driving areas. Adaptive Cruise Control should only be used on limited-access highways.) S00639 S00640 Adaptive Cruise Control 37 – When the vehicle in front is not directly ahead of your vehicle and is shifted to one side – When there is an obstacle at the side of the road – When the relative speed difference compared to the vehicle in front is large – When a vehicle cuts into your lane in front of you – When the distance between vehicles is extremely short – When your vehicle is drifting within the lane – When driving on a bumpy or unpaved road surface – When driving on a road with extremely narrow lanes, such as when traffic restrictions are in effect or in areas where construction work is taking place – When normal driving has become compromised due to an accident or malfunction – When extremely heavy cargo is loaded in the cargo area, rear seat or trunk of your vehicle • There are limits to the capabilities of Adaptive Cruise Control. Even when the vehicle in front is detected, the system may not be able to decelerate in time in cases such as when the difference in speeds is large or when the vehicle in front decelerates suddenly. Operate the brake pedal and decelerate as necessary. • If the buzzer sounds frequently, do not use Adaptive Cruise Control. • Even when the following distance is short, the “brake more” warning may not activate in the following cases. – When the relative speed difference compared to the vehicle in front is small (the two vehicles are travelling at almost the same speed) – When the vehicle in front is traveling faster than your vehicle (the following distance is gradually increasing) – When another vehicle cuts into your lane very close to your vehicle – When the vehicle in front decelerated suddenly – When there are repeated uphill and downhill grades S00641 S00642 Adaptive Cruise Control 38 CAUTION • After Adaptive Cruise Control has started, it maintains control continuously according to the behavior of the vehicle in front. When your vehicle comes to a stop if the vehicle in front has stopped, the stay-stopped function is engaged. However, if the EyeSight stereo cameras lost detection of the vehicle in front, the system may not stop your vehicle. Operate the brake pedal and maintain the correct following distance as necessary. Be aware that the EyeSight system has difficulty detecting objects or vehicles that have a relative speed in comparison to your vehicle. Therefore, if the Eye- Sight system loses detection just as you are approaching a line of stopped cars, for example – you will have to brake manually. • There is no possibility that the vehicle will automatically begin moving from a stay-stopped condition without operation from the driver. • Braking may not be sufficient depending on the following conditions. Operate the brake pedal and decelerate as necessary. – Vehicle conditions (amount of load, number of occupants, etc.) – Road conditions (grade, slipperiness, shape, bumps, etc.) – Vehicle maintenance status (brake systems, tire wear, air pressure, temporary spare tire is being used, etc.) – When the brakes are cold. (For example, just after the engine is started or when the outside temperature is low.) – For a short period of time when driving after the engine is started until the engine has warmed-up – When the brakes are overheated on downhill grades (braking effectiveness may be reduced) – When driving in rain or after washing the vehicle (the brakes may become wet and braking effectiveness may be reduced) – When towing a trailer or another vehicle, etc. Adaptive Cruise Control 39 Adaptive Cruise Control is available when the engine is turned on. ■Setting Adaptive Cruise Control (1) Setting Adaptive Cruise Control to standby status Press the (CRUISE) switch. At this time, “ ” (Adaptive Cruise Control), your vehicle indicator and the “following distance setting” are displayed on the EyeSight display area in the multi information display. The set vehicle speed display will read “- – MPH”. If the switch is pressed once more, the EyeSight display will turn off. It will also automatically turn off when the engine is stopped. To set ready status: Adaptive Cruise Control can be set when all of the following conditions are met and is displayed on the EyeSight display area. – All doors (except the rear gate/trunk) are closed. – The driver’s seatbelt is fastened. – The selector lever is in the position and the paddle shift is not operated. – The brake pedal is not depressed. – EyeSight operation is not temporarily stopped. ⇒ Refer to page 80. – The road is not a steep slope. – The steering wheel has not been turned significantly in either direction. – The vehicle speed is between approximately 0 MPH (0 km/h) and 90 MPH (145 km/h). – Parking brake is released. How to use Adaptive Cruise Control S01332 S01333 S01334 D Adaptive Cruise Control 40 (2) Setting Adaptive Cruise Control Press the RES/SET switch to the “SET/-”. Adaptive Cruise Control is now set, and cruise control will start. If no vehicle in front has been detected, the vehicle drives at the constant set target speed. When Adaptive Cruise Control is set, the set speed and are displayed on the EyeSight display area. NOTE • The target vehicle speed can be set between 25 MPH (40 km/h) and 90 MPH (145 km/h). • If the vehicle speed is approximately 25 MPH (40 km/h) or less when the vehicle speed is set, the set vehicle speed is set to 25 MPH (40 km/h). S01352 S01336 Adaptive Cruise Control 41 When a vehicle in front is detected, a buzzer sounds 1 short beep and the lead vehicle indicator will illuminate. (white) will turn green. The vehicle tracks the lead vehicle in front and maintains the selected following distance. At this time, the speed upper limit is the set vehicle speed. If the vehicle in front is no longer detected, a buzzer sounds 1 short beep and the lead vehicle indicator turns off. (green) will turn white. Operation of Adaptive Cruise Control • When no vehicle in front is detected The vehicle drives constantly at the set target vehicle speed between approximately 25 MPH (40 km/h) and 90 MPH (145 km/h). • When a vehicle in front is detected The vehicle tracks the lead vehicle in front, and will maintain the chosen following distance (there are three settings), up to the set target vehicle speed – between 25 MPH (40 km/h) and 90 MPH (145 km/h). NOTE The buzzer sound (lead vehicle acquisition sound) that occurs when a vehicle in front is detected or no longer detected while Adaptive Cruise Control is set can be turned off by customization. ⇒ Refer to page 82. S01337 S00643 S00644 Adaptive Cruise Control 42 • If your vehicle no longer detects the vehicle in front The vehicle gradually accelerates back to the set target vehicle speed and will drive at that constant speed. If a vehicle in front is detected while accelerating to the set target vehicle speed, vehicle tracking will be started again. CAUTION If the driver operates the brake pedal during automatic braking, the pedal may feel stiff; however, this is not a malfunction. By depressing the brake pedal further you can apply more braking force. When the brake pedal is released it will return to its original condition. NOTE • When the brakes are applied by Adaptive Cruise Control, the vehicle’s brake lights will illuminate. • Even if there is no lead vehicle present, on a downhill grade, the Adaptive Cruise Control’s automatic brake may operate in order to maintain the set target vehicle speed. • Some noises may be audible during automatic braking. This is caused by the braking control and does not indicate a malfunction. • To temporarily accelerate quickly, use the accelerator pedal. After accelerating, the vehicle will gradually return to the set target vehicle speed shown in the gauge cluster. • There are cases where the vehicle in front has turned off the road while your vehicle is still controlled by the automatic braking operation that has activated due to the deceleration of the vehicle in front of yours. In those cases, the brake will be automatically released gradually. Depress the accelerator pedal if necessary. • The lead-vehicle tracking function has the following characteristics: – If the lead vehicle’s brake lamp is detected, deceleration is started more quickly than without detection. – Responsiveness to the acceleration operation to the set vehicle speed is better when changing to the fast lane than when changing to the cruising lane. S00646 Adaptive Cruise Control 43 ■Increasing the set vehicle target speed ●Using the RES/SET switch While driving with Adaptive Cruise Control on, operate the RES/SET switch as follows. • Push to the “RES/+” side briefly. Every time the switch is pushed, the set vehicle target speed will increase to the next 5 MPH (5 km/h) increment. • Push to the “RES/+” side continuously. While the switch is being pushed, the set vehicle target speed will increase by 1 MPH (1 km/h). When operating the switch, the set vehicle target speed changes on the meter display and the multi function display. ●Using the accelerator pedal Depressing the accelerator pedal will increase vehicle speed. Once the preferred speed has been attained, push the RES/SET switch to SET/-. When the switch is pressed, the new vehicle target speed will be set. The new set vehicle speed will be displayed in the EyeSight display area. CAUTION • When Adaptive Cruise Control is operating, the actual vehicle speed is controlled according to the lead vehicle. Therefore, if the RES/SET switch is pressed to the “RES/+” and set to a speed higher than the speed of the lead vehicle, the vehicle will not accelerate – it will maintain a safe following distance as the first priority. However, because doing so changed the set vehicle target speed, when the lead vehicle is no longer detected (for example, if you change to a freeway lane with no vehicles in front), the vehicle will accelerate to that new set target speed. Change the set vehicle target speed while briefly checking the value shown in the set speed display on the EyeSight display. • When the accelerator pedal is depressed with Adaptive Cruise Control on, automatic braking control and warnings by Adaptive Cruise Control will not occur. However, if there is a high risk of collision with an obstacle in front of the vehicle at this time, the warning and braking control of the Pre-Collision Braking System may activate. S01339 Adaptive Cruise Control 44 ■Decreasing the set vehicle target speed ●Using the RES/SET switch While driving with Adaptive Cruise Control on, operate the RES/SET switch as follows. • Push to the “SET/-” side briefly. Every time the switch is pushed, the set vehicle target speed will decrease in to the next 5 MPH (5 km/h) decrement. • Push to the “SET/-” side continuously. While the switch is being pushed, the set vehicle target speed will decrease by 1 MPH (1 km/h). When operating the switch, the set vehicle target speed changes on the meter display and the multi function display. ●Using the brake pedal (1) Depress the brake pedal to decrease the vehicle speed. (Adaptive Cruise Control will be canceled and will turned off.) (2) When the desired speed is reached, press the RES/SET switch to the “SET/-”. The speed at the time of pressing the switch will be set as the new vehicle speed, and it appears in the EyeSight display area. ■Accelerating temporarily Depress the accelerator pedal to accelerate temporarily. When the accelerator pedal is released, the vehicle returns to the set vehicle speed. S01340 Adaptive Cruise Control 45 ■Decelerating temporarily Depress the brake pedal to decelerate temporarily. When the brake pedal is depressed, Adaptive Cruise Control will be canceled. The will be turned off while the set vehicle target speed remains displayed on the EyeSight display area. Release the brake pedal and press the RES/SET switch to “RES/+” to reset the set vehicle target speed. CAUTION Ordinarily, while Adaptive Cruise Control is functioning, acceleration and deceleration are performed automatically according to the speed of the lead vehicle (if one is detected). However, when your vehicle approaches a lead vehicle, for example if it is necessary to accelerate for a lane change or other reason, and if the vehicle in front suddenly decelerates, or if another vehicle cuts into your path, operate the accelerator pedal or brake pedal and accelerate or decelerate as appropriate for the existing conditions. S01345 will be turned off. Adaptive Cruise Control 46 ■ Changing the following distance from the vehicle in front The following distance from the vehicle in front setting can be changed in 3 stages. NOTE The following distance changes according to the vehicle speed and is further the faster that the vehicle is traveling at. S01341 Following distance indicator When you vehicle speed is 25 MPH (40 km/h) When you vehicle speed is 60 MPH (100 km/h) Approx. 100 ft (30 m) Approx. 200 ft (60 m) Approx. 75 ft (22 m) Approx. 150 ft (45 m) Approx. 50 ft (15 m) Approx. 100 ft (30 m) Adaptive Cruise Control 47 ■Canceling Adaptive Cruise Control ●Canceling by driver operation Either of the following operations will cancel Adaptive Cruise Control. • Depress the brake pedal. will be turned off while the set vehicle target speed remains displayed on the EyeSight display area. • Press the (CRUISE) switch. will be turned off while the set vehicle target speed remains displayed on the EyeSight display area. When the (CRUISE) switch is pressed again, will be turned off and Adaptive Cruise Control will be turned off. S01345 S01332 will be turned off. Adaptive Cruise Control 48 ●Automatic cancellation by the system In the following cases, a buzzer will sound a single long beep and Adaptive Cruise Control is automatically canceled. ( is displayed on the EyeSight display area.) • Conditions for automatic cancellation – The grade of the road is very steep. – ABS, Vehicle Dynamics Control or Traction Control Function is activated. – The vehicle speed has exceeded approximately 100 MPH (160 km/h) while cruise control is set. – The steering wheel was turned significantly in either direction. – The transmission select lever is moved to a position other than . • Cruise control can be resumed after the transmission select lever is returned to the position. – A paddle shift switch is operated while driving when the transmission select lever is in the position. • Cruise control can be resumed again after the shift indicator returns to . – Any door (except the rear gate/trunk) is opened. – The driver’s seatbelt is unfastened. – EyeSight operation has temporarily stopped. ⇒ Refer to page 80. – EyeSight is malfunctioning. ⇒ Refer to page 79. – The Pre-Collision secondary braking has activated. – Parking brake is applied. S01343 D D D D Adaptive Cruise Control 49 WARNING Do not use Adaptive Cruise Control on slippery roads. Doing so may result in an accident. CAUTION When shifting the selector lever to the position, Adaptive Cruise Control will be automatically canceled. Do not shift the lever to the position unless it is an emergency. Otherwise the engine brake may not operate, which could cause an accident. NOTE • If EyeSight operation has temporarily stopped, the Pre-Collision Braking System OFF indicator light and Lane Departure Warning OFF indicator light illuminate, and the EyeSight temporary stop indicator is displayed on the multi information display. ⇒ Refer to page 80. • If EyeSight is malfunctioning, the EyeSight warning indicator is displayed on the multi information display, and the Pre-Collision Braking System OFF indicator light and Lane Departure Warning OFF indicator light will also illuminate. If this occurs, stop the vehicle in a safe location and then turn off the engine and restart it. If the indicators remain illuminated after restarting the engine, Adaptive Cruise Control cannot be used. This will not interfere with ordinary driving; however the system should be inspected by a SUBARU dealer as soon as possible. ⇒ Refer to page 79. • When the operation of Adaptive Cruise Control has been automatically canceled, perform the set cruise control operation again after the condition that caused the cancellation has been corrected. If the cruise control function cannot be set even after the condition has been corrected, EyeSight may be malfunctioning. This will not interfere with ordinary driving; however contact a SUBARU dealer and have the system inspected. N N Adaptive Cruise Control 50 ■Returning to a vehicle speed that was previously set The vehicle speed which was previously set is stored in memory.* To return to set that vehicle speed, press the RES/SET switch to the RES/+. ( on the EyeSight display area illuminates again to indicate that the system has returned to the set status again.) NOTE *The vehicle speed stored in memory is erased in the following circumstances: • The cruise control is turned off by pressing the (CRUISE) switch. • Vehicle Dynamics Control or Traction Control Function are activated. • The cruise control mode was switched from Adaptive Cruise Control to Conventional Cruise Control. S01344 S01336 Adaptive Cruise Control 51 ■“Brake more” warning The “brake more” warning is activated while Adaptive Cruise Control is tracking a lead vehicle. This function warns the driver when it determines that the current level of deceleration by automatic braking control is insufficient. • When the ‘brake more’ function operates, “Obstacle Detected” will be shown in the pop-up screen area of the multi information display, a lead vehicle indicator will flash, and a buzzer will sound several short beeps. • When this function activates, depress the brake pedal to decelerate and maintain a correct following distance. Other functions WARNING • If the buzzer sounds frequently, do not use Adaptive Cruise Control. • The “brake more” warning will not activate in the following situations. – The accelerator pedal is depressed. – The brake pedal is depressed. • Even when the following distance is short, the “brake more” warning may not activate in the following situations. – The difference in speed with the vehicle in front is small. (The two vehicles are travelling at almost the same speed.) – The vehicle in front is traveling faster than your vehicle. (The following distance is gradually increasing.) – Another vehicle cuts into your lane very close to your vehicle. – The vehicle in front decelerates suddenly. – When there are repeated uphill and downhill grades • The “brake more” warning may not activate in time in the case of a vehicle that is stopped at the end of a line at a toll gate, at a stop light or intersection or in traffic congestion, or a vehicle that is moving much slower than your vehicle. EyeSight requires a speed differential in order to recognize a potential obstacle and react to it. S01346 Adaptive Cruise Control 52 CAUTION The automatic braking function is released gradually approximately 2 seconds after stopping and the vehicle starts creeping forward. Be sure to depress the brake pedal and stop the vehicle completely. NOTE • Vehicles in front in the same traffic lane are detected by the stereo cameras within a distance of approximately 360 ft (110 m) in the forward direction. However the detection distance may be reduced depending on the traffic environment, driving conditions, and conditions of the vehicle in front. • When driving on a curve, the vehicle may not accelerate, or may decelerate, even if the set speed is higher than the current vehicle speed. • If does not illuminate when the (CRUISE) switch is pressed, there may be a malfunction in the system. Contact a SUBARU dealer and have the system inspected. Pre-Collision Throttle Management 53 Pre-Collision Throttle Management When an obstacle is detected in front of the vehicle, and the vehicle is stopped or travelling very slowly, if the system determines that the accelerator pedal has been depressed by more than the necessary amount (due to driver error), it greatly restricts engine output and ensures that vehicle forward movement is slower than normal in order to give the driver additional time to brake or react. During system operation, a buzzer will sound several short beeps, and “Obstacle Detected” will be shown on the pop-up display area of the multi information display. The lead vehicle indicator will also flash. This function only activates when the transmission select lever is in the or position. Continued on next page ⇒ WARNING Do not rely excessively on Pre-Collision Throttle Management. Pre- Collision Throttle Management is not designed to help you avoid collisions in many situations. Always check the selector lever and pedal positions as well as the surrounding environment before starting and operating the vehicle. Relying only on Pre-Collision Throttle Management could result in an accident. • Pre-Collision Throttle Management is not designed to maintain the vehicle in a stopped condition. • Pre-Collision Throttle Management will not reduce acceleration under all conditions. It is also not designed to prevent collisions. • Pre-Collision Throttle Management will operate when an obstacle is detected in front. However, this function will not reduce acceleration in cases where no obstacle is recognized (for example when approaching a cliff, etc.) • Do not intentionally depress the accelerator pedal excessively when there are obstacles nearby. If the driver relies only on Pre-Collision Throttle Management to control acceleration, collisions may occur. S01125 “Repeated short beeps” S01346 D M Pre-Collision Throttle Management 54 ⇒ Continued from previous page • If your vehicle is trapped on a railroad crossing and you are trying to escape by driving through the crossing gate, the stereo cameras may recognize the crossing gate as an obstacle and Pre-Collision Throttle Management system may activate. In this case, remain calm and either continue to depress the accelerator pedal or turn off the Pre-Collision Throttle Management system. ⇒ Refer to page 58. • Pre-Collision Throttle Management may not activate depending on the following conditions: – The distance between your vehicle and the obstacle, speed difference, and lateral displacement (amount of offset) – Recognition status of the stereo cameras In particular, the function may not activate in the following cases: • Bad weather (for example heavy rain, a blizzard or thick fog) • When visibility is poor due to sand or smoke in the air • When light is poor in the evening, early morning, or at night • In a dark area (indoor parking area, etc.) • When there is an obstacle outside the area illuminated by the headlights • When affected by strong light from the front (for example sunlight at sunrise or sunset headlight beams, etc.) • When there is snow, frost, dirt or dust on the windshield, or it is clouded • When fluid has not been fully wiped off the windshield during or after use of the window washer • When obstacles cannot be correctly recognized due to water droplets from rain or the washer, or the wiper blades obstructing the stereo cameras’ field of view • When the stereo cameras’ field of view is obstructed (for example by a canoe on the roof of the vehicle) • With low obstacles (low wall, crash barrier, low vehicle, etc.) • When the size and height of an obstacle is smaller than the limitations of the stereo cameras’ recognition capability • With small animals or children. • With pedestrians who are sitting or lying down • When the rear portion nearest your vehicle is too small or too close (such as a trailer or oncoming vehicle) the system may not recognize the part of that vehicle which is closest to you. S00771 Pre-Collision Throttle Management 55 • When there is a fence or wall, etc., with a uniform pattern (striped pattern, brick, etc.) or with no pattern in front • When there is a wall or door made of glass or a mirror in front • When an obstacle (another vehicle, motorcycle, bicycle, pedestrian, animal or child, etc.) cuts in from the side or jumps out suddenly • When starting, if you change lanes and your vehicle is immediately behind the obstacle • On sharp curves, steep uphill grades or steep downhill grades – When the system determines that steering operation by the driver is intended as evasive action • For your safety, do not test Pre-Collision Throttle Management on its own. It may operate improperly and cause an accident. S00653 Pre-Collision Throttle Management 56 CAUTION • In the following situations, turn off Pre-Collision Throttle Management. Otherwise Pre-Collision Throttle Management may activate unexpectedly. – When the vehicle is being towed – When loading the vehicle onto a carrier – When a chassis dynamometer, free-rollers or similar equipment is used – When a mechanic lifts up the vehicle, starts the engine and allows the wheels to spin freely – When passing hanging banners, flags or branches, or when thick/tall vegetation is contacting the vehicle • The Pre-Collision Throttle Management may activate in the following situations.

Is the vehicle in front far away? The maximum detection distance of EyeSight’s stereo cameras is approximately 360 ft (110 m). Detection is not possible if the vehicle is farther away. Is the vehicle on a curve? The detection range is limited in the left and right directions when the cameras are properly aimed. Is the vehicle on a road with repeated uphill and downhill grades (such as an overpass), or on a banked road? The detection range is limited in the up and down directions. Did the vehicle detected in front change? Detection may be delayed after the vehicle in front has changed. Have water, snow or other substances been kicked up by the vehicle in front as it drives? When water or snow have been kicked up, it may not be possible to detect the vehicle in front. Control is activated even though no vehicle in front is detected? Is there a vehicle in the neighboring lane? Depending on the road conditions, vehicles in neighboring lanes may be detected as well as a vehicle directly in front. Are you driving on or near a curve? When driving on a curve, braking control may be activated in response to guard rails, the angle of the steering wheel, or roadside structures. The Lead Vehicle Start Alert activates, even though there is no vehicle in front. Depending on surrounding objects, traffic environment and weather, the Lead Vehicle Start Alert may issue a warning in response to objects other than a vehicle that appear in front of your vehicle. Troubleshooting 88 EyeSight does not restart after a temporary stop. Are you parking the vehicle at extremely cold or hot condition? In these cases, EyeSight will maintain temporary stop until the temperature is back to normal. Are you driving in the rain with old wipers or is there an oily film on the windshield? Replace the wipers with new ones, or clean the oily film off the windshield. Are you driving in poor weather conditions with heavy rain, snow, fog, or dust? In these cases, EyeSight may temporarily stop operating while visibility is very low. Is your vehicle subject to sunlight from the front (sunset or sunrise, etc.) or to bright headlights from oncoming vehicles at nighttime? In these cases, EyeSight may temporarily stop operating. The timing of the “brake more” warning is sometimes earlier and sometimes later than what seems to be normal operation. The “brake more” warning sounds when the system determines that more braking is necessary, based on conditions such as the distance from the vehicle in front and the difference in speed compared to it. As a result, timing may vary depending on how the brakes are applied in relation to the vehicle in front, and your relative speed to that vehicle. When the vehicle in front has turned off the road away or the distance from the vehicle in front has increased, acceleration is sometimes slower or faster. Depending on the timing of when the detection of the vehicle in front is lost, Eye- Sight’s ability to react may be slower, causing the start of acceleration to feel delayed and braking time to feel longer than what seems to be normal operation. Troubleshooting 89 Cruise control is canceled automatically. Did you perform one of the following operations? • Manually depressing the brake pedal • Pressing the (CRUISE) switch – If the (CRUISE) switch is pressed while the cruise control is set, the cruise control will be canceled. • Staying on a steep slope • Turning the steering wheel sharply • Operating the paddle shift lever • Shifting the selector lever to the position • Unfastening the seatbelt. • Parking brake is applied. Has the EyeSight system temporarily stopped? A noise occurs when automatic braking control activates. This is the sound of the automatic braking control operating – there are some mechanical components to the system, and they do occasionally make audible sounds during automatic braking control. It is not necessarily a malfunction. Braking control activates frequently when driving in heavy traffic. Unlike a human driving, the EyeSight system performs control based only on the actions of vehicles or objects in front. As a result, acceleration and deceleration may be more frequent while the system adjusts to vehicles or objects the camera system is detecting. If it is difficult to maintain a consistent following distance under certain conditions (like in bad weather or urban environments, etc.), do not use Adaptive Cruise Control. M 90 MEMO
