Intelligent Back-up Intervention (I-BI) (if so equipped)

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions for proper use of the I-BI system could result in serious injury or death.

  • The I-BI system is not a replacement for proper driving procedures, is not designed to prevent contact with vehicles or objects and does not provide full brake power. When backing out of parking spaces, always use the inside and rear mirrors and turn and look in the direction you will move. Never rely solely on the I-BI system.
  • There is a limitation to the detection capability of the radar or the sonar. Using the I-BI system un-der some road, ground, traffic or weather conditions could lead to improper system operation. Al-ways rely on your own operation to avoid accidents.

The I-BI system can help alert the driver of an approaching vehicle or objects behind the vehicle when the driver is backing out of a parking space.Intelligent Back-up Intervention (I-BI) (if so equipped)13

The I-BI system uses radar sensors installed on both sides near the rear bumper to detect an approaching vehicle and sonar sensors to detect objects in the rear.Intelligent Back-up Intervention (I-BI) (if so equipped)2

The radar sensors detect an approaching vehicle. The sonar sensors detect stationary objects behind the vehicle. Refer to the illustration for approximate zone coverage areas .Intelligent Back-up Intervention (I-BI) (if so equipped)3

I-BI SYSTEM OPERATION

When the shift lever is in the R (Reverse) position and the vehicle speed is less than approximately 5 MPH (8 km/h), the I-BI system operates.
If the radar detects a vehicle approaching from the side or the sonar detects close stationary objects behind the vehicle, the system gives visual and audible warnings. If the driver does not apply the brakes, the system automatically applies the brake for a moment when the vehicle is moving backward. After the automatic brake application, the driver must depress the brake pedal to maintain brake pressure. If the driver’s foot is on the accelerator

VEHICLE-TO-VEHICLE DISTANCE CONTROL MODE

In the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode, the ICC system automatically maintains a selected distance from the vehicle traveling in front of you according to that vehicle’s speed (up to the set speed), or at the set speed when the road ahead is clear.

Intelligent Back-up Intervention (I-BI) (if so equipped)21

The system is intended to enhance the operation of the vehicle when following a vehicle traveling in the same lane and direction.
If the radar sensor detects a slower-moving vehicle ahead, the system will reduce the vehicle speed so that your vehicle follows the vehicle in front at the selected distance.
The system automatically controls the throttle and applies the brakes (up to approximately 40% of vehicle braking power) if necessary.
The detection range of the sensor is approximately 650 ft (200 m) ahead.

Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode operation

The vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is designed to maintain a selected distance and reduce the speed to match the slower vehicle ahead; the system will decelerate the vehicle as necessary and if the vehicle ahead comes to a stop, the vehicle decelerates to a standstill. However, the ICC system can only apply up to approximately 40% of the vehicle’s total braking power. This system should only be used when traffic conditions allow vehicle speeds to remain fairly constant or when vehicle speeds change gradually. If a vehicle moves into the traveling lane ahead or if a vehicle traveling ahead rapidly decelerates, the distance between vehicles may become closer because the ICC system cannot decelerate the vehicle quickly enough. If this occurs, the ICC system will sound a warning chime and blink the system display to notify the driver to take necessary action.
The system will cancel and a warning chime will sound if the speed is below approximately 15 MPH (25 km/h) and a vehicle is not detected ahead. The system will also disengage when the vehicle goes above the maximum set speed.

The following items are controlled in the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode:

  • When there are no vehicles traveling ahead, the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode maintains the speed set by the driver. The set speed range is between approximately 20 and 90 MPH (30 and 144 km/h).
  • When there is a vehicle traveling ahead, the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode adjusts the speed to maintain the distance, selected by driver, from the vehicle ahead. The adjusting speed range is up to the set speed. If the vehicle ahead comes to a stop, the vehicle decelerates to a standstill within the limitations of the system. The system will cancel once it judges a standstill with a warning chime.
  • When the vehicle traveling ahead has moved out from its lane of travel, the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode accelerates and maintains vehicle speed up to the set speed.

The ICC system does not control vehicle speed or warn you when you approach stationary and slow-moving vehicles. You must pay attention to vehicle operation to maintain proper distance from vehicles ahead when approaching toll gates or traffic congestion.

The ICC system does not control vehicle speed or warn you when you approach stationary and slow moving vehicles. You must pay attention to vehicle operation to maintain proper distance from vehicles ahead when approaching toll gates or traffic congestion.

When driving on the freeway at a set speed and approaching a slower traveling vehicle ahead, the ICC system will adjust the speed to maintain the distance, selected by the driver, from the vehicle ahead. If the vehicle ahead changes lanes or exits the freeway, the ICC system will accelerate and maintain the speed up to the set speed. Pay attention to the driving operation to maintain control of the vehicle as it accelerates to the set speed.
The vehicle may not maintain the set speed on winding or hilly roads. If this occurs, you will have to manually control the vehicle speed.
Normally when controlling the distance to a vehicle ahead, this system automatically accelerates or decelerates your vehicle according to the speed of the vehicle ahead. Depress the accelerator to properly accelerate your vehicle when acceleration is required for a lane change. Depress the brake pedal when deceleration is required to maintain a safe distance to the vehicle ahead due to its sudden braking or if a vehicle cuts in. Always stay alert when using the ICC system.

  1. The system set to display with the vehicle ahead
  2. System set display without vehicle ahead

The driver sets the desired vehicle speed based on the road conditions. The ICC system maintains the set vehicle speed, similar to standard cruise control, as long as no vehicle is detected in the lane ahead.
The ICC system displays the set speed.
Vehicle detected ahead:
When a vehicle is detected in the lane ahead, the ICC system decelerates the vehicle by controlling the throttle and applying the brakes to match the speed of a slower vehicle ahead. The system then controls the vehicle’s speed based on the speed of the vehicle ahead to maintain the driver selected distance.
NOTE:

  • The stoplights of the vehicle come on when braking is performed by the ICC system.
  • When the brake operates, a noise may be heard and/or vibration may be felt. This is not a malfunction.

When a vehicle ahead is detected, the vehicle ahead detection indicator comes on. The ICC system will also display the set speed and selected distance.
The vehicle ahead not detected:
When a vehicle is no longer detected ahead, the ICC system gradually accelerates your vehicle to resume the previously set vehicle speed. The ICC system then maintains the set speed.
When a vehicle is no longer detected the vehicle ahead detection indicator turns off.
If a vehicle ahead appears during acceleration to the set vehicle speed or any time the ICC system is in operation, the system controls the distance to that vehicle.
When a vehicle is no longer detected under approximately 15 MPH (25 km/h), the system will be canceled.

  • Intelligent Back-up Intervention (I-BI) (if so equipped)14

When passing another vehicle, the set speed indicator will flash when the vehicle speed exceeds the set speed. The vehicle detect indicator will turn off when the area ahead of the vehicle is open. When the pedal is released, the vehicle will return to the previously set speed.
Even though your vehicle speed is set in the ICC system, you can depress the accelerator pedal when it is necessary to accelerate your vehicle rapidly.

How to change set vehicle speed
To cancel the preset speed, use any of these methods:

  • Push the CANCEL switch. The set vehicle speed indicator will go out.
  • Tap the brake pedal. The set vehicle speed indicator will go out.
  • Turn the MAIN switch off. Both the MAIN switch indicator and set vehicle speed indicator will go out.

To reset at a faster cruising speed, use one of the following methods:

  • Depress the accelerator pedal. When the vehicle attains the desired speed, push and release the SET- switch.
  • Push and hold the RES+ switch. The set vehicle speed will increase by approximately 5 MPH (5 km/h for Canada).
  • . Push, then quickly release the RES+ switch. Each time you do this, the set speed will increase by approximately 1 MPH (1 km/h for Canada).
  • To reset at a slower cruising speed, use one of the following methods:
  • Lightly tap the brake pedal. When the vehicle attains the desired speed, push the SET- switch and release it.
  • Push and hold the SET- switch. The set vehicle speed will decrease by approximately 5 MPH (5 km/h for Canada).
  • Push, then quickly release the SET switch. Each time you do this, the set speed will decrease by approximately 1 MPH (1 km/h for Canada).

To resume the preset speed, push and release the RES+ switch. The vehicle will resume the last set cruising speed when the vehicle speed is over 20 MPH (30 km/h).

Intelligent Back-up Intervention (I-BI) (if so equipped)15

How to change set distance to vehicle ahead
The distance to the vehicle ahead can be selected at any time depending on the traffic conditions.
Each time the DISTANCE switch is pushed, the set distance will change to long, middle, short and back to long again in that sequence.

Intelligent Back-up Intervention (I-BI) (if so equipped)16

  • The distance to the vehicle ahead will change according to the vehicle speed. The higher the vehicle speed, the longer the distance.
  •  If the engine is stopped, the set distance becomes “long”. (Each time the engine is started, the initial setting becomes “long”.)

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 and set distance indicator blink.

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

  • When the vehicles are travelling at the same speed and the distance between vehicles is not changing
  • When the vehicle ahead is travelling faster and the distance between vehicles is increasing
  • When a vehicle cuts in near your vehicle
    The warning chime will not sound when:
  • Your vehicle approaches other vehicles that are parked or moving slowly.
  • The accelerator pedal is depressed, overriding the system.

NOTE:
The approach warning chime may sound and the system display may blink when the radar 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 radar 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 manoeuvre or driving position in the lane) or traffic or vehicle condition (for example, if a vehicle is being driven with some damage).
Acceleration when passing
When the ICC system is engaged above 44 MPH (70 km/h) and following a slower vehicle (below the vehicle set speed), and the turn signal is activated to the left, the ICC system will automatically start to accelerate the vehicle to help initiate passing on the left and will begin to reduce the distance to vehicle directly ahead. Only the left side turn signal operates this feature. As the driver steers the vehicle and moves into the passing lane, if no vehicle is detected ahead the ICC system will continue to accelerate to the vehicle set speed. If another vehicle is detected ahead, then the vehicle will accelerate up to the following speed of that vehicle. If the vehicle is not steered into the left lane to pass, the acceleration will stop after a short time and regain the set the following distance. Acceleration can be stopped at any point by depressing the brake pedal or the CANCEL switch on the steering wheel.

WARNING
In order to reduce the risk of a collision that may result in serious injury or death, please be aware of the following:

  • This function is only activated with the left turn signal and will briefly accelerate the vehicle even if a lane change is not initiated. This can include non-passing situations such as left side exits.
  • Ensure that when passing another vehicle, the adjacent lane is clear before initiating the pass. Sudden changes in traffic may occur while passing. Always manually steer or brake as needed. Never solely rely on the system.

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 (25 km/h)
  • When the system judges the vehicle is at standstill
  • When the shift lever is not in the D (Drive) or manual shift mode
  • When the parking brake is applied
  • When the SNOW mode switch is pushed on.
  • When the 4WD shift switch is in the 4H or 4L position (for 4WD models)
  • When the VDC system is turned off
  • When the VDC (including the traction control system) operates
  • When distance measurement becomes impaired due to adhesion of dirt or obstruction to the sensor
  • When a wheel slips
  • When the radar signal is temporarily interrupted Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode limitations

WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for the ICC system. Failure to operate the vehicle in accordance with these system limitations could result in serious injury or death.

  • The system is primarily intended for use on straight, dry, open roads with light traffic. It is not advisable to use the system in city traffic or congested areas.
  • . This system will not adapt automatically to road conditions. This system should be used in evenly flowing traffic. Do not use the system on roads with sharp curves, or on icy roads, in heavy rain or in fog.
  • . As there is a performance limit to the distance control function, never rely solely on the ICC system. This system does not correct careless, inattentive or absent-minded driving, or overcome poor visibility in rain, fog, or other bad weather. Decelerate the vehicle speed by depressing the brake pedal, depending on the distance to the vehicle ahead and the surrounding circum-stances in order to maintain a safe distance between vehicles.
  • . If the vehicle ahead comes to a stop, the vehicle decelerates to a standstill within the limitations of the system. The system will cancel once it judges that the vehicle has come to a standstill and sound a warning chime. To pre-vent the vehicle from moving, the driver must depress the brake pedal.
  • . Always pay attention to the operation of the vehicle and be ready to manually control the proper following distance. The vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode of the ICC system may not be able to maintain the selected distance between vehicles (following distance) or selected vehicle speed under some circumstances.
  • . The system may not detect the vehicle in front of you in certain road or weather conditions. To avoid accidents, never use the ICC system under the following conditions:
    •  On roads where the traffic is heavy or there are sharp curves
    • On slippery road surfaces such as on ice or snow, etc.
    • During bad weather (rain, fog, snow, etc.)
    • When rain, snow or dirt adhere to the system sensor
    •  On steep downhill roads (the vehicle may go beyond the set vehicle speed and frequent braking may result in over-heating the brakes)
    •  On repeated uphill and downhill roads
    • When traffic conditions make it difficult to keep a proper distance between vehicles because of frequent acceleration or deceleration
  • Do not use the ICC system if you are towing a trailer. The system may not detect a vehicle ahead.
  • In some road or traffic conditions, a vehicle or object can unexpectedly come into the sensor detection zone and cause automatic braking. You may need to control

the distance from other vehicles using the accelerator pedal. Always stay alert and avoid using the ICC system when it is not recommended in this section.

  • The radar sensor will not detect the following objects:
  • Stationary and slow-moving vehicles
  • Pedestrians or objects in the roadway
  • Oncoming vehicles in the same lane
  • Motorcycles travelling offset in the travel lane

The sensor generally detects the signals returned from the vehicle ahead. Therefore, if the sensor cannot detect the reflection from the vehicle ahead, the ICC system may not maintain the selected distance.
The following are some conditions in which the sensor cannot detect the signals:

  • When the snow or road spray from traveling vehicles reduces the sensor’s visibility
  • When excessively heavy baggage is loaded in the rear seat or the luggage area of your vehicle
  • When your vehicle is towing a trailer, etc.

The ICC system is designed to automatically check the sensor’s operation within the limitation of the system. When the sensor is covered with dirt or is obstructed, the system will automatically be cancelled. If the sensor is covered with ice, a transparent or translucent vinyl bag, etc., the ICC system may not detect them. In these instances, the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode may not cancel and may not be able to maintain the selected following distance from the vehicle ahead. Be sure to check and clean the sensor regularly.

Intelligent Back-up Intervention (I-BI) (if so equipped)17

The detection zone of the ICC sensor is limited. A vehicle ahead must be in the detection zone for the vehicle-to-vehicle distance detection mode to maintain the selected distance from the vehicle ahead.
A vehicle ahead may move outside of the detection zone due to its position within the same lane of travel. Motorcycles may not be detected in the same lane ahead if they are travelling offset from the centre-line of the lane. A vehicle that is entering the lane ahead may not be detected until the vehicle has completely moved into the lane. If this occurs, the ICC system may warn you by blinking the system indicator and sounding the chime. The driver may have to manually control the proper distance away from vehicle travelling ahead.

Intelligent Back-up Intervention (I-BI) (if so equipped)18

When driving on some roads, such as winding, hilly, curved, narrow roads, or roads which are under construction, the ICC sensor may detect vehicles in a different lane, or may temporarily not detect a vehicle traveling ahead. This may cause the ICC system to decelerate or accelerate the vehicle.
The detection of vehicles may also be affected by vehicle operation (steering manoeuvre or travelling position in the lane, etc.) or vehicle condition. If this occurs, the ICC system may warn you by blinking the system indicator and sounding the chime unexpectedly. You will have to manually control the proper distance away from the vehicle travelling ahead.
