 Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) 

*

              The  Smart  City  Brake  Support  (SCBS)  system  is  designed  to  reduce  damage  in  the  event 

of a collision by operating the brake control (SCBS brake) when the system's laser sensor 

(front) detects a vehicle ahead and determines that a collision with a vehicle ahead is 

unavoidable. It may also be possible to avoid a collision if the relative speed between your 

vehicle and a vehicle ahead is less than about 20 km/h (12 mph).

  In addition, when the driver depresses the brake pedal while the system is in the operation 

range at about 4 to 30 km/h (2 to 18 mph), the brakes are applied 

¿

 rmly and quickly to 

assist. (Brake Assist (SCBS brake assist))

WARNING

  Do not rely on the Smart City Brake Support System (SCBS) as a substitute for safer 
driving:

  The Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system cannot compensate for unsafe and reckless 
driving, excessive speed, tailgating (following another vehicle too closely), and driving on 
slippery roads such as wet, snowy, and icy roads (reduced tire friction and road contact 
because of water on the road surface). You can still have an accident.
